Just off Interstate 24, Oak Grove is located on the boundaries of Western Kentucky and Middle Tennessee. Oak Grove, Kentucky is less than four hours from Atlanta, Louisville, St. Louis, Memphis and Nashville. Oak Grove has a population of approximately 8,000 and is noted to be one of the fastest growing cities in Kentucky. Our quiet rural community is most popularly known as “The Hometown of Fort Campbell”, a bedroom community nestled outside the gates of the 101st Airborne Division. We are definitely proud of our 101st Screaming Eagles. In addition, Oak Grove is surrounded by outdoor recreational areas, museums, music venues, antique stores, small-town festivals and more.
The Viceroy creates a venue for family
oriented concerts and events, where
people can enjoy outdoor entertainment
in a pleasant setting. In addition the
park features the Veterans Picnic Pavilion
and a playground for kids
of all ages. The "Vice" opened in
November 2008 and has held events, festivals
and concerts throughout the spring,
summer and fall.
The Viceroy Performing Arts Center and
Veterans Picnic Pavillion are now open on the site
of the Oak Grove War Memorial Walking
Trail Park. For more information on up-
coming events or to book the facilities,
