Highway 127 Corridor Sale
- Highway 127 Corridor Sale
The Highway 127 Corridor Sale (also shortened to 127 Yard Sale) is an outdoor second-hand sale held annually for four days beginning the first Thursday in August along U.S. Route 127. The event has been promoted as "The World's Longest Yard Sale."
The original idea came from Fentress County, Tennessee county executive Mike Walker, and was established in 1987. In its first years the sale route followed Highway 127 from Covington, Kentucky to Chattanooga, Tennessee. A few years after the event was established, the Lookout Mountain Parkway was added to the route, extending it from Chattanooga southward through northwestern Georgia and northeastern Alabama to Gadsden, Alabama. In 2007 the route was extended northward from Covington, through Ohio to the Michigan border.
The event has been featured on HGTV. [http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/spcl_prsntn/episode/0,1806,HGTV_3909_46622,00.html]
