Over the past eight years, we have made many improvements to the overall traffic plan that have decreased the entrance and exit time for festival patrons.
We are trying to make sure that all entrances are used by about the same amount of traffic, as this will improve the flow into the site. You can help by using the following routes (unless electronic message signs tell you to follow an alternative route):
If you are coming from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Virginia, all other states in the northeast including Maryland and Pennsylvania, or other locations east of the site:
1. Use I -75 or I -59 to Chattanooga
2. From Chattanooga take I-24 west and follow the directions on the Variable Message signs and police directions for the Exit to use to get on site.
If you are coming from Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Texas, Wisconsin, or any other locations west of the site:
1. Use I-40, I-24, or I-65 to Nashville
2. From Nashville take I-24 east and follow the directions on the Variable Message signs and police directions for the Exit to use to the site.
If you live in Tennessee, use one of the routes listed or consider using Route 55.
A Note about Traffic: Over the past eight years, we made many improvements to the overall traffic plan that have decreased the entrance and exit time for most festival patrons. As we continue to better our traffic plan, we ask that you use only the designated pedestrian walkways, during Load-In and Loud-out times. This will help the internal flow of traffic, which will significantly decrease back up. We also ask for your help by carpooling as much as possible and by cooperating with our parking staff, law enforcement, and following all internal traffic plans.
PLEASE NOTE: There are no on site gas vendors. Be sure to fill your tank before entering the festival grounds.
