Our first time to Knoxville specifically to see Lianne La Havas. Show was at the Bijou - lovely restored theater. Intimate seats @750. Friendly staff and full bar. Parking in lot across the street $6 on a Wednesday night. And awesome bistro next door🙂 This photo was taken from top row so I could dance and not block anyone lol…

My wife nagged me to get the Garfunkel tickets in December 2018 so I purchased seats from Ticketmaster at 10:01 AM on the morning they went on sale and got really good seats. The Art Garfunkel concert was the first event we attended at the Knoxville Bijou and it was very good. The small venue setting is our preference and the seating arrangement at the Bijou is ideal - with a good view of the stage from most areas. The capacity is about 750 .We liked the way they have their restaurant next door directly connected to the theater. The Bijou is classical,- really historical, and over 100 years old. The staff is cordial and they have a great concession area. The Bijou is unique because it fills a void in the KNOX area. It provides an opportunity for lesser known local and TN groups to advance their career and gain a higher level of identity than by just playing in the area pubs or smaller venues. However, in addition, the Bijou also offers a wide array of well know rock, jazz and country artists from the past and present such as: Lindsey Buckingham, Christopher Cross, and Joe Jackson. A nice mix - a little of everything is on the roster. Art Garfunkel is a legend and his lyrics will live on for eternity. His stellar performance included all his great songs along with a couple of classics from the Graduate. The “Sound of Silence” was spot on with harmonies as good as the record. In between songs, he recited thoughtful lyrics of poetry related to his walking journeys throughout the world. We were very satisfied with the performance and will return to the Bijou. Parking is easy-two blocks away and only $6.00 for Self Park.…

We had the pleasure recently to see a writer read from his works in this theatre. Great location, perfect size for this type of event, and easy in and out. Seating is very comfortable and, as far as I can tell, there's not a bad seat in the house.

A small but elegant venue. Great location, and I loved the entry area with the name spelled out in mosaic tiles.

We have gone to the Bijou now twice and loved every minute of both trips! The location was very clean and the staff was super friendly! The theater is beautiful and very well taken care of! We are glad they keep this one up and keep business coming in to it. We recommend this location for all ages.…
