Knoxville: craft-show Sunday has lowest Booked Occupancy (Oct 26–Nov 1, 2026)

The Fine Craft Show continues through Sunday in Knoxville, Tennessee. For hosts looking at Oct 26–Nov 1, 2026, that raises a practical question: does the event’s closing day warrant the same attention as the start of the weekend?

Sunday has the lowest citywide Booked Occupancy in Knoxville for October 26, 2026–November 1, 2026, although the Fine Craft Show continues that day. Wheelhouse data as of October 23, 2026 shows Booked Occupancy of 10.9% on Sunday, November 1, 2026, versus the week’s highest, 17.3%, on Friday, October 30, 2026. Sunday has more time remaining until arrival than Friday.

Wheelhouse data shows that the Fine Craft Show’s closing Sunday has the week’s lowest citywide Booked Occupancy.

The Knoxville Expo Center lists the Fine Craft Show for October 30, 2026–November 1, 2026, overlapping Friday through Sunday within the analyzed stay window of October 26, 2026–November 1, 2026. Those event dates span both the highest and lowest Booked Occupancy readings of the week. The calendar therefore gives hosts a reason to consider the weekend together, while the market figures give them a reason to distinguish its nights.

Sunday, Nov 1, also has Tennessee Vintage Fest on the Knoxville Convention Center calendar. Its presence makes the contrast more useful: Sunday’s low Booked Occupancy coincides with scheduled programming, rather than an empty event calendar. Neither listing tells us how many attendees need accommodation, so the clearest takeaway is about Sunday night itself—not the apparent busyness of the daytime calendar.

Asking Rates reinforce the distinction between the ends of the show’s run. Sunday, Nov 1, has an Asking Rate of $286, compared with $328 on Friday, Oct 30. The market view pairs lower Sunday Booked Occupancy with a lower Sunday Asking Rate; it does not give a host a reason to copy Friday’s pricing onto the closing night merely because the show continues.

Use Wheelhouse Performance Analytics to compare Sunday, Nov 1, with past Sundays, checked the same number of days before arrival and with the same nights open for booking; compare Friday, Oct 30, with past Fridays on that same basis. If your Sunday Booked Occupancy is also below its own historical comparisons, keep Sunday as the priority for investigation. If Sunday resembles its usual pattern, shift attention to whether Friday differs from its own history rather than treating the event’s closing day as an exception.
