Sara Evans Pigeon Forge 4th of July headliner

The 2023 4th of July Festival in Pigeon Forge will be headlined by country superstar, Sara Evans! With five No. 1 singles including “No Place That Far,” “Suds In The Bucket, “A Real Fine Place To Start,” “Born to Fly,” and “A Little Bit Stronger,” Sara is the fifth most-played female artist on country radio in nearly the last two decades.

Traditionally, the headliner takes the stage around 8:30pm leading up to the fireworks display that normally happens around 9:50pm, but there will be more music and fun available earlier as well!

Taking the stage before Sara Evans will be On The Border – The Ultimate Eagles Tribute, who performs every big hit, from ballads such as “Desperado” and “Lyin’ Eyes” to classics such as “Life in the Fast Lane” and “Heartache Tonight”. It’s going to be a great night!
