Fish Tent
This is what you’ve been waiting for: THE MOUTH-WATERING, ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT CATFISH DINNER at the Fish Tent. Yes, we know it’s not really a tent, it’s a building. But back in the day, this fabulous meal was served in an enormous canvas tent, so in the name of nostalgia (and Southerners love nostalgia) we call it a tent.
Parade
We’re thrilled to invite you to be a part of the Grand Parade! More than a procession, it’s a celebration of our community and shared history. Whether you want to join as a participant, become a sponsor, or just need to know the best places to park, we look forward to seeing you this year!
Carnival
Experience the adrenaline rush from heart-pounding rides punctuating the carnival skyline. The Ferris wheel offers breathtaking views of the festivities, while classic rides cater to thrill-seekers of all ages. We’re proud to offer something fun for the whole family in Paris, TN.
