If you want your event included, please make a Facebook event, invite me via the “invite” button on the event page (Alan Sims – you’ll have to friend me), and it will be included. I need enough lead time that the list can be put together the Wednesday before you want your event included.

  • If you’d like more eyes on your business or event, consider hitting the “advertise” link at the top of this page or shoot me an email at Knoxvilleurbanguy@gmail.com for more details.
  • If you’d like to show your appreciation for this weekly list and all the other information presented here, consider hitting the “donate” button at the top to demonstrate your support.
