All of the above are just a few of the adjectival descriptions that can be used when talking about Market Square. This place is a vibrant venue in the heart of downtown Knoxville. Every Wednesday, Saturday and most Friday evenings and Sundays, there is something new and exciting for every age. From Farmer's Markets carrying the most fresh of all... More

Within a three day period, we listened to two live concerts close to the stage area...one was jazz, the other the Knoxville symphony. It is a popular place, but it wasn't overly crowded by any means. We stayed at the Crown Plaza across the street, so it was a short walk over. We either ate or just 'hung out' Tuesday... More

Market Square is a way to spend an afternoon or evening in downtown Knoxville. Fun shops, cool restaurants, and great people-watching. Plus, lots of room for strollers, making balloon lightsabers, and running (for those of us with kids). Anyway, take time to explore downtown Knoxville and market square.

We were in town for a race, and I wish I had more time to spend here. They had great, unique restaurants (not chains) all up and down this area. It would have been great to try more of them. There was something going on in the streets as well with vendors lined up throughout the square. I really enjoyed... More

If you are in need of a place that has a little bit of everything, this is the place to go. In the winter they have ice skating and in the summer they have movies at night. They are all the time having some kind of entertainment happening out at market square along with all the shopping and cool restaurants.... More
