About ESPN Tri-Cities
ESPN Tri-Cities is the sports radio home for the Tri-Cities region — Johnson City, Kingsport, and Bristol — bringing comprehensive sports coverage to the passionate fans of northeast Tennessee and southwest Virginia. As part of the ESPN Radio network, the station delivers nationally syndicated sports programming alongside local shows that focus on the sports stories that matter most to Tri-Cities listeners: college football in the ACC and SEC, the Appalachian League's Bristol and Kingsport teams, local high school sports, and NASCAR racing from Bristol Motor Speedway. Bristol Motor Speedway — one of NASCAR's most famous and beloved tracks — makes auto racing a particular passion in the Tri-Cities, and ESPN Tri-Cities delivers the race coverage, driver analysis, and NASCAR news that race fans demand. College football from the University of Tennessee and surrounding programs generates the kind of intense fan passion that fills sports radio call-in lines, and ESPN Tri-Cities provides the platform for those conversations. Local sports hosts bring genuine regional knowledge and authentic fan perspective to their analysis, connecting the national ESPN brand to the specific sports culture of northeast Tennessee. Tune in for sports radio that speaks the Tri-Cities' language.
