World’s Fair Park
The Grainger County Tomato Festival was organized in 1992 to promote the world famous
Grainger County Tomatoes. Over the years, a number of special events have been added,
making the festival one of the largest free festivals in East Tennessee. The Grainger
County Tomato Festival has been named by Parade magazine as one of the top ten
festivals in the USA.
It’s a weekend of Grainger County Tomatoes, Live Music, the infamous Tomato Wars, Arts
& Crafts, great food and so much more. Pets are welcome and are accommodated by several
water stations on the festival grounds. Mark your calendars to spend the last full weekend of
July in Rutledge, Tennessee. You don’t want to miss it.
Pets are welcome, and we have several water stations on the festival grounds. We also have misting tents for
cooling off that the critters and their people love.
