Chattanooga Is Home

One of the things I love about Chattanooga is that there is always something to do. And as a bonus, it usually isn’t too hard to find free activites for you and your family.

The Nightfall concert series is one of those free activies that people flock to in the summer. As a bonus, the concert always features local musicians, of all different kinds of musical stylings. From folk music to jazz to Celtic rock (and more), you can find a them here in Chattanooga.

From the Chattanooga Downtown Partnership:

The Chattanooga Downtown Partnership kicks off the 2007 Nightfall Concert Series on Friday, May 25, at Miller Plaza.
