Transportation is provided by independent operators.
Thompson-Boling Arena event parking and traffic arrangements can vary by event through the University of Tennessee. Because the arena sits on campus, check current event parking guidance at UT Parking Services before your show date and confirm your bus's drop-off and staging approach with the independent operator. A charter bus can help keep your group together for the trip to and from the arena, subject to the operator's confirmed plan.
Downtown parking conditions can change the closer you get to showtime. The Tennessee Theatre and Bijou are located along South Gay Street, with public garages and lots available elsewhere downtown. A minibus or party bus may help your group coordinate a shared pickup and drop-off plan instead of bringing multiple cars; confirm the specific locations with the independent operator.

Absolutely — and that's one of the setups groups may request through the network for Big Ears weekend. Because the festival returns to Knoxville April 1–4, 2027, with programming across more than 25 downtown venues, a minibus or sprinter van on a custom multi-stop itinerary can help keep your group moving between sets. List your stops and timing when you fill out the quote form, or call 865-332-1030 and a live agent will help you submit the route details.
Request a quote as soon as you know your Knoxville show date, especially for Big Ears Festival, scheduled for April 1–4, 2027, UT home football Saturdays in the fall, and major arena shows at Thompson-Boling. Those dates can draw demand for vehicles across the Knoxville metro at once, so requesting options early gives you more time to compare vehicles and estimates. The earlier you call 865-332-1030, the more time you have to review the available choices.
Yes. Independent operators in the network serve pickup locations across the Knoxville metro — West Knoxville, Farragut, Maryville, Oak Ridge, and beyond.
