A Chattanooga Family’s Guide to June 2023

Summer has arrived in the Scenic City! Music festivals, baseball games, the Chattanooga Market, and more local favorites are in full swing now. Chattanooga has so much to offer to families during the warmer months to ensure there’s no hint of summer boredom.

Your family can catch a Lookouts game or watch the Chattanooga Red Wolves at their stadium in East Ridge. If you’re looking to beat the heat, checkout our local splash pads, guide to boating in Chattanooga, waterfalls, swimming holes, area beaches, and local ice cream shops. If you’re looking for a boredom buster, checkout the Chattanooga Public Library or our Ultimate Guide to Summer Fun!

Have a fun and safe summer, Chattanooga!
