The Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in neighboring Manchester
The neighboring cities are hotspots for live music. "Tullahoma itself doesn't have much of a party life, but people have no problem going to Nashville for live music," Koziol says. Manchester hosts the annual Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, which attracts some of the world's biggest musical acts. Entertainment options within the city are limited. "Sporting events at Tullahoma High are a big deal, especially baseball and football games," Koziol says. "People get very invested." Beechcraft Heritage Museum has multiple hangars full of vintage aircraft that represent the history of the Beech Aircraft Corporation. The neighboring city of Lynchburg is home to Jack Daniel's Distillery, which holds tours.

Commuting to Huntsville, Chattanooga and Nashville
Tullahoma Regional Airport is primarily for public use, so residents take commercial flights out of Nashville International Airport. "The regional airport is really popular among local pilots and parachuters," Koziol says. "You'll be driving to the grocery store, and you'll see someone dropping out of the sky." Tullahoma is between three larger cities. Huntsville is about 60 miles southwest via Winchester Road; Chattanooga is about 76 miles southeast via Interstate 24; and Nashville is about 77 miles north via Interstate 24. "Folks who live here commute to all three," Koziol says. Tullahoma does not have access to public transportation, so residents depend on cars.
