Ketner's Mill, here we come! Robin Roberts Promotions is excited to announce the Ketner's Mill Seafood Festival on July 11-13, 2025. Food vendors from around the Southeast and beyond will join us for this three-day festival, where the many visitors will enjoy fresh seafood dishes of all kinds, as well as other cuisines for the non-seafood lovers. There will be something for everyone. Admission to the festival will be free, although there will be a $5 fee for parking that will be given to Ketner's Mill. As in other Robin Roberts Promotions shows, we will be taking only 15 PRIME (entree-type) vendors at his show. We have secured billboards, radio, and magazine advertising so far. Folds of Honor will be the festival charity and all proceeds from the VIP Tent will be donated to this organization that supports the families of veterans and first responders. Festival visitors will also be able to listen to nationally and regionally known live music and enjoy juried handmade arts and crafts from artisans throughout the country. Those familiar with the Chattanooga Seafood Bash will find the same activities at the Ketner's Mill Seafood Festival, including a beer and wine garden, expansive kids' area, and a VIP Tent with premium seating near the stage and exclusive dinner and a show opportunities. Ketner’s Mill is a tranquil, beautifully preserved tribute to those who settled in the Sequatchie Valley of Southeast Tennessee in 1824. Formerly the site of a grist mill, blacksmith and wool-carding shops, and sawmill, Ketner's Mill is a wonderful salute to the lifestyles of the 1800-1900's. Please join us in a rustic valley beside the Sequatchie River. Ketner's Mill is the perfect location for a family-friendly show, so visitors of all ages are welcomed to come out and join us!
