Music, Meals, & Lasting Memories

Calling all music lovers – Twilight Alive is back, this May, for another summer of great music, yummy meals, and lasting memories!

For nearly 20 years, Kingsport has hosted Twilight Alive – a concert series that transforms Broad Street into a lively Friday night plan for people across the region. From late May to late July, Downtown Kingsport comes alive with performers of all genres. From country to rock to 80’s hits, there is something to appeal to everyone’s music tastes.

Picture this: It’s 7 o’clock on a Friday night and you are in downtown Kingsport. The warmth of the light from the lamps lining Broad Street radiates onto your skin as you stroll on the sidewalk. Content from a filling meal at one of Kingsport’s many downtown restaurants, you and your loved ones unfold your lawn chairs, strew a picnic blanket across the pavement, and claim your spot in front of the stage. The enticing aroma of food trucks is all around you as the band begins to play, and the beauty of the summer sky lingers above you. Music floods your ears as you dance in the street, sing along to familiar tunes and laugh the night away in good company.

And the best part? This event is completely free, so you don’t have to worry about ticket costs. Instead, you can save your money for a refreshing drink, a filling meal or a tasty treat.

The artists for this year’s lineup will be announced Thursday, so be sure to stay tuned! Pssss.. the lineup list is out! Visit www.twilightalive.com to see the artists for 2026!

Whether you are looking to do some family bonding, spend time with friends, take some me-time or have a date-night with your significant other, Twilight Alive is the perfect spot for you this Summer! Bring a chair or a blanket and join us downtown for another year of entertainment, food, fun and Kingsport tradition!
