The Tennessee Centennial and International Exposition was an exposition staged between May 1 and October 31 of 1897 in Nashville in what is now Centennial Park. A year late, it celebrated the 100th anniversary of Tennessee's entry into the union in 1796.[1]

The Parthenon replica built for the exhibition still stands and serves as an art museum housing Alan LeQuire's 1990 re-creation of the Athena Parthenos statue.

The 1982 World's Fair would later be held in Knoxville, Tennessee.
