Tennessee Sandhill Crane Festival

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency is proud to present the 32nd Annual Tennessee Sandhill Crane Festival, Celebrating over 20,000 Majestic Sandhill Cranes that stop over during their winter migration at the beautiful Hiwassee Refuge.

This family-friendly festival provides a chance to experience the call, which can be heard for over a mile, the dance between mates, the wingspan which stretches to six to seven feet, and the view of this four-foot-tall bird, along with entertainment, vendors, and children’s activities. Come join us at this premier birding event.
