Mabry-Hazen House geared up for 6th Annual Boomsday, Bluegrass & Barbeque event

Mabry-Hazen House will host their 6th annual Boomsday, Bluegrass, and Barbeque celebration on Sunday, September 1, 2013. Guests will enjoy a great view of Knoxville’s premiere fireworks show, good food and live music provided by WDVX -- all on a cool hilltop. Tours of the historic home will begin at 6pm, and dinner will be served at 7:30. Alcohol is BYOB.

Voted one of the best places to watch the Boomsday fireworks show, Mabry-Hazen House also offers food and entertainment without the traffic. Tickets are $60 per adult and children under 12 are free when accompanied by a ticket holder. Tickets are limited to 200 adults to ensure a quality event. This event has sold out for the past three years. Purchase your tickets in advance to guarantee your attendance. There is plenty of parking and the site offers easy access to I-40 without traffic concerns. Tickets may be purchased in advance by visiting www.mabryhazen.com or call 865-522-8661 for more information. The event will take place rain or shine. It is sponsored by WDVX, All Occasions Party Rentals, and Crowne Plaza Knoxville.

Built in 1858, Mabry-Hazen House is strategically located on the highest hill east of downtown Knoxville with spacious views in all directions. The home was occupied and defended by both armies during the Civil War. It housed three generations of the same family for 130 years; the museum showcases one of the largest original family collections in America. Your attendance will help support the museum's mission to preserve and educate the public about an important part of East Tennessee history.
