Chattanooga, TN – According to the statement, this event, also known as the “Super Bowl of marbles,” will reportedly feature world-class marbles players, live bluegrass and old-time music, and activities for all ages.
Celebrating its 41st year, the festival will run from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., with live music from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
In addition to the main competition, the day will include a kids marbles festival, marble-making demonstrations, and a marbles swap meet. Youth tournaments will also be held.
Food will be available throughout the day, and admission is free, although some activities may require a fee to support the Friends of Standing Stone State Park.
Rolley Hole, a traditional folk game similar to croquet, involves skillful shots to prevent opponents from reaching the hole.
The competition is played on a 40×25-foot dirt yard, following the official rules of the National Rolley Hole Marbles Championship.
Standing Stone is the only state park in the U.S. with a dedicated marbles yard, as Tennessee’s Clay County is home to some of the sport’s top players.
