What's New In Farragut This Summer: Biddle Farms Opens, And The Weekend Map Shifts West
July 9, 2026
July 9, 2026
If you are looking for things to do in Farragut TN this summer, the most useful update is bigger than any one restaurant or event. Farragut’s weekend routine is becoming easier to organize around a west-side loop.
Biddle Farms now has enough dining, shopping, and everyday services to support several stops in one compact district. Continue west on Kingston Pike and Parkside Drive, and recent openings at Turkey Creek and Westerly Commons give you more reasons to keep the day close to home.
That is the real change. Farragut has added more than a list of businesses. It is starting to offer a connected weekend pattern.
The title needs one clarification: Biddle Farms did not have a single grand opening in 2026. The town center arrived in stages.
By summer 2026, those separate openings have started to function as a district. That distinction matters because it explains why Biddle Farms can feel new even though several businesses have been open for months.
The change is less about a ribbon cutting and more about reaching critical mass. There are now enough reasons to stay after your first stop.
The Biddle Farms update to watch is time, not size. A quick coffee can now turn into lunch, shopping, and another errand without resetting the whole day.
The current mix gives Biddle Farms a clear rhythm throughout the day.
Parlor Doughnuts is at 106 Biddle Farms Blvd. and is open from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. Its hours make it a practical starting point whether the rest of the morning involves shopping, a market, or a park visit.
Sports Treasures adds a different kind of browsing nearby. The shop at 135 Brooklawn St. carries sports cards, signed and miniature helmets, balls, posters, memorabilia, and collector supplies. It is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, which makes it an easy weekend stop after breakfast.
Super Chix at 116 Brooklawn St. gives the district a casual lunch option. Tupelo Honey at 126 Biddle Farms Blvd. serves brunch, lunch, and dinner, with an outdoor patio that also permits dogs.
Those choices change how the center works. You can meet for breakfast, browse nearby stores, and stay for a meal instead of treating each business as a separate destination.
Biddle Farms shopping currently includes:
Diamond Gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and closed Sunday. Sports Treasures is also closed Sunday. If local retail is the priority, Saturday offers the broader mix.
The district has practical services as well. SweatHouz, Sage Dental, and Covenant Health Urgent Care all have Biddle Farms addresses. Covenant Health Urgent Care is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
That service layer may not sound like a weekend attraction, but it helps explain why Biddle Farms is beginning to feel useful throughout the week rather than reserved for an occasional dinner.
A list of open storefronts only tells part of the story. Programming shows whether people can experience the area as a connected place.
Visit Farragut tested that idea with the Hidden Blooms Trail from April 27 through May 1, 2026. The passport-style event encouraged participants to move among Biddle Farms businesses for coffee, chocolate, shopping, and food.
The Town Center at Biddle Farms Cooperative also launched in spring 2026. Its discussions included special events in the green space and a possible walking crawl among businesses.
That work is still developing. Bradley’s reported wanting more foot traffic, and the Town is pursuing a public restroom beside the Town Square lawn to support the trail and future events. The official Town project page lists the restroom completion date as TBD.
In plain language, Biddle Farms is usable now, but it is not finished. Future event support, business coordination, and ongoing residential construction could make the district busier over time. For this summer, visitors should rely on the facilities and hours offered by individual businesses rather than assuming the lawn has complete public-event amenities.
Paris Baguette should remain in the “watch this space” category. As of May 6, 2026, the bakery café was still in lease negotiations for a Biddle Farms location. Its tentative goal was a November or early December opening.
That timing was not final, so Paris Baguette should not be included in a summer itinerary yet.
Townhome construction is continuing as well, with the first closing expected in October 2026. This is another reason to view the current summer as a midpoint. The storefront mix is established enough to use, while the district’s customer base and public programming are still taking shape.
Biddle Farms creates a compact starting point. Newer destinations along Parkside Drive and Kingston Pike extend the day west.
The biggest summer opening is Nordstrom Rack at Pinnacle at Turkey Creek, which opened June 25, 2026, at 11417 Parkside Drive. Its arrival gives residents a new retail anchor to pair with Pinnacle’s existing restaurants, shops, and events.
Pinnacle’s seasonal farmers market runs Sundays from June through mid-August, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The current Pinnacle at Turkey Creek calendar also includes outdoor donation-based power yoga on July 18 and the Knox Market Magical Market on August 1 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Farther west, Publix at Westerly Commons opened March 26, 2026, at 13123 Kingston Pike. Grocery shopping is not the centerpiece of a day out, but the new store makes it easier to combine a practical errand with the rest of the loop.
Bruster’s at 11692 Parkside Drive adds a natural final stop. It has a drive-through, outdoor seating, and published hours of 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.
Put these pieces together and the westward shift becomes clear: Biddle Farms can handle the first half of the day, while Turkey Creek and the western Kingston Pike corridor can carry it through the evening.
These are not rigid itineraries. They are simple ways to reduce backtracking while keeping several stops close together.
Saturday is the stronger choice when Biddle Farms retail is the focus because Diamond Gallery and Sports Treasures are closed Sunday.
The Sunday plan is more food, market, and Parkside focused. It also works around the Sunday closures at Sports Treasures and Diamond Gallery.
The remaining July and August calendar spreads activity across parks, shopping areas, and public gathering spaces.
| Date | Event | Location and time |
|---|---|---|
| July 18 | Outdoor donation-based power yoga | Pinnacle at Turkey Creek, 9:30 to 11 a.m. |
| July 24 | Party in the Park | McFee Park, 6 to 8 p.m. |
| August 1 | Knox Market Magical Market | Pinnacle at Turkey Creek, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. |
| August 15 | Yacht Rock Concert | Mayor Ralph McGill Plaza, 6 to 9 p.m. |
| August 21–23 | Dog Daze | Village Green Shopping Center |
| August 22 | Fun with the Fleet | Mayor Bob Leonard Park, 9 to 11 a.m. |
Party in the Park is a free end-of-summer event with games, crafts, and music. The official Town calendar confirms Friday, July 24, from 6 to 8 p.m.
The Visit Farragut events calendar is the best source for checking details before leaving home, especially when weather could affect outdoor plans.
Biddle Farms is not a finished town center with every planned amenity in place. It is also well past the rendering stage.
This summer’s meaningful shift is that residents can use it as the first part of a real weekend plan. Breakfast, lunch, local retail, and practical services now sit in one district. Turkey Creek adds a new retail anchor and a Sunday market. Westerly Commons and Bruster’s extend the loop farther west.
That creates a more complete answer to “What should we do this weekend?” without requiring every stop to be in a different part of Knoxville.
Local changes like these can also shape how homeowners think about convenience, nearby amenities, and a property’s place within the Farragut market.
