Visit Columbia Tn welcomes the media to ask questions and write about our awesome city! We are your local resource for information on the City of Columbia, Tennessee. We're happy to assist qualified journalists with organizing media visits, group press tours; interviews, arranging itineraries, visits to local attractions, points of interest, and events. We can inspire you with ideas for travel stories, too.

Media Visits

If you are a journalist on assignment we are happy to assist with arrangements for your visit. Email Kellye Murphy for more information. Please give us advance notice in order to best accommodate your assignment, along with details such as media outlet, story theme, audience, (print, web, broadcast) coverage, and expected date of publication. Our goal is to assist you with one-on-one guidance, attraction passes, local contacts, itineraries, and media hotel rate. In special cases, a complimentary room night may be offered at the discretion of the local hotel properties, based on availability and interest.
