Flight
McGhee Tyson airport in Knoxville, TN is located about 45 minutes from the venue/hotels and would be your easiest option! Note that it is a tiny airport (~8 gates), so you'll likely have a connecting flight to get there. Boston friends and family - there is a direct Allegiant flight from Boston to Knoxville that runs weekly Thursday-Sunday! We have both flown it countless times - it's great and likely your best option! (Note: if you search on Google Flights or Hopper, they don't always show Allegiant flights. Your best bet is to go on the Allegiant site directly to book!)
Flight
Nashville International Airport is large and will offer many more flight options than McGhee Tyson. It is about 2.5-3 hours from the venue/hotel so you'd likely have to rent a car to get to Sevierville!
Flight
Asheville Regional is similarly sized to McGhee Tyson, so flight options are limited but available. Like Nashville, this airport is about 2.5-3 hours away from the venue/hotel, so you'd likely have to rent a car to get to Sevierville!

House Or Rental
