Rivers & Spires is an award-winning FREE festival with live music, interactive entertainment, activities for the kids and great food held in historic downtown Clarksville, Tennessee. In short Rivers & Spires is a downtown outdoor festival that you can bring the kids to during the day, shop throughout the afternoon and come back at night to rock the night away with some awesome headliners!
Rivers & Spires Festival started in 2003 as a tribute to the returning soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault). Since then, it has continue to follow this heritage, with special tributes for the many soldiers from nearby Fort Campbell deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Past headliners of Rivers and Spires include Lee Greenwood, Diamond Rio and an appearance by Miss U.S.A Rachel Smith. In addition, the festival features special events every year specifically geared to kids of all ages – all free and open to the public.
