Carter County Car Club Cruise In

Covered Bridge Celebration

Thousands flock to downtown Elizabethton each June for the annual Covered Bridge Celebration offered by the Elizabethton/Carter County Chamber of Commerce. Organized during the month of September, award-winning musicians, vendors and others set up on Elk Avenue Bridge and Covered Bridge Park to offer family-friendly entertainment. A children’s area is also provided to give joy back to the youth in attendance.

Founded in the 1980s, the Carter County Car Club has served the community needs by offering car shows through Historic Downtown Elizabethton. Car enthusiasts from across the country descend upon downtown through the spring and summer months to showcase their vehicles and share in fellowship with one another. The event is used as a way to gather funds for children’s charities and brings additional foot traffic to the various shops located downtown.
