The Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce our annual 2023 Business Expo, set to take place on November 30th at the Oak Ridge Civic Center from 4:00-7:00PM. This event, designed to bring the community together, celebrates the vibrant local businesses and services available to residents.
Our Business Expo is a must-attend event! With free admission and parking for all, attendees will have the opportunity to explore a diverse range of over 70 exhibitors, each representing a unique local business or service. Thanks to Calhoun's of Oak Ridge, guests (21+) can enjoy a free beer from their Smoky Mountain Brewery collection. You can even expect popcorn, courtesy of the Chamber, and tastings from your favorite participating restaurants!
This themed event promises an engaging atmosphere for the whole family, and fun-filled activities and entertainment suitable for all ages! As visitors peruse the exhibition booths, they can expect goodie bags filled with surprises and special offers from participating organizations. Additionally, attendees will have the chance to participate in the voting process for our Booth Decorating Contest!
Local businesses interested in participating as exhibitors are encouraged to register early, as space is limited. This is an excellent chance to gain exposure, interact with potential customers, and build valuable connections within the community.
Together, let's make this years expo an unforgettable success!
We owe special thanks to P&L Business Services and Roane State Community College for sponsoring this year's event!
