Plan a meeting your attendees will never forget—on the “Peaceful Side of the Great Smoky Mountains.” In Blount County, Tenn., work and leisure come together in a setting that inspires big ideas and lasting connections.

Here, modern conference facilities meet small-town charm, with the Smokies as your backdrop. Host your sessions in venues like the Hilton Knoxville Airport Conference Center, the rustic-chic Dancing Bear Lodge, or Little Arrow Outdoor Resort—then, step outside to breathtaking mountain views, tranquil streams, and endless adventure.

Swap sterile boardrooms for hikes on rugged trails, team floats down pristine rivers, or horseback rides through lush forests. Recharge with award-winning dining, from the gourmet Appalachian flavors of Dancing Bear Bistro to the refined hospitality of RT Lodge. Wrap up the day with craft brews, local wines, or a glass of Tennessee whiskey.

Blount County isn’t just scenic; it’s also convenient. Our regional airport puts you minutes from your meeting space, and our central location means more than 60 percent of the U.S. can drive here in a day. You’ll get all the amenities of big-city meeting destinations—without the traffic, noise, or distractions.

When you choose Blount County, you choose a meeting that feels personal, authentic, and extraordinary. Here, nature’s beauty fuels creativity, and every conversation has room to breathe.

Make your next meeting exceptional—where productivity meets the “Peaceful Side of the Smokies.”
