Special Events Into July


Starting tomorrow, June 17th to August 7th, will be Dollywood's Kidsfest which we have covered in the entry below. If you're bringing the kids to the Smokies, you won't want to miss this chance to give them an incredible summer experience! www.dollywood.com

Also starting tomorrow is Gatlinburg Tunes and Tales which has been Gatlinburg's newest major summer tradition 6 years running. A smash hit since it started, Tunes and Tales livens up the Gatlinburg city evening with plenty of public performances by musicians, dancers and storytellers until August 13th. Those who want a taste of Appalachian culture to go with their evening walk through the city of Gatlinburg will not be disappointed.

And from there we have the Fourth of July being celebrated at Patriot Park in Pigeon Forge with an all day festival of games, music and later fireworks, while Gatlinburg offers the Fourth of July Midnight Parade to tens of thousands of people in downtown Gatlinburg at the stroke of midnight (5 minutes after 11:55PM on 7/3/11), a River Raft Regatta starting at 9:00AM and then the fireworks going on over the downtown section of the city after sundown.



Get your reservations in before they fill up for the summer fun here in the Smokies!
