In this festive episode, Mayor Indya Kincannon sits down with Kyndra Brewer, the City’s Director of Special Events, along with a special surprise guest. Together they pull back the curtain on what it really takes to create Knoxville’s most beloved traditions: the Regal Celebration of Lights, Festival on the Fourth, New Year’s Eve at the Sunsphere, and more.
Kyndra shares behind-the-scenes stories, including quick saves, memorable mishaps, and how a “blue Christmas tree” once caused more excitement than expected. She reflects on Knoxville’s growth, the joy of creating Hallmark-movie magic downtown, and the partnerships across City departments that bring each event to life.
The surprise guest joins the fun to talk favorite Christmas songs, kids’ wish lists, hot-chocolate preferences, and why he loves visiting Knoxville. The two even discuss whether they’d try a local polar plunge and what they’d do if they were Mayor for a day.
