Founded

HERE Bristol was founded in 2021 to highlight the culture, history, and growth of Bristol—famously known as the “Birthplace of Country Music.” From the beginning, our mission has been to celebrate Bristol’s identity as a twin city located in both Tennessee and Virginia, with State Street marking the border between the two. We cover everything from the iconic Bristol Motor Speedway to downtown festivals, local businesses, higher education, and community events. Our platform has built a reputation for balancing Bristol’s historic legacy with its modern growth. By amplifying local voices—artists, entrepreneurs, educators, and civic leaders—we provide stories that reflect the true heartbeat of the community. Today, HERE Bristol is part of the broader HERE CITY NETWORK, which now serves more than 100 communities across the United States. Together, we bring consistent, high-quality, and community-driven journalism that connects people to the heart of their city.
