I'll add a few more to the already good suggestions. Mostly things to do or tour in specific areas.
Nashville area - Hermitage, Franklin civil war tour, Antebellum mansion tours, couple major rod and classic car gatherings in the summer, Grand Old Opera,
Knoxville area - Museum of Appalachia has a great festival in the fall with live performances (mostly bluegrass), Honda Hoot, if you like motorcycles, there's always a UT football or basketball game, Dollywood(but Pigeon Forge has already been mentioned)
I've found you can find things to do about that fit your interests anywhere with a little web searching. Seems every area has something.
Whatever you do, it beats sitting home!
