Thankfully, you don’t have to miss out on our Lumberjack Feud Supper Show, since we are open year-round! Keep reading to learn more about the best time to visit Pigeon Forge:
Summer & Fall
The most popular times to visit the Smokies are the summer and fall. Family vacations are typically planned for when the kids are out of school and the weather is nice, and fall getaways to Pigeon Forge are popular for enjoying the spectacular autumn foliage. This is a great time of year to go hiking in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, ziplining, horseback riding, and of course, experience our outdoor lumberjack show and all-you-can-eat buffet! Our climate-controlled grandstands will keep you cool from the hot sun, and you’ll love exploring all of the shops and activities in Lumberjack Square.
Winter & Spring
November and December bring holiday fun and magic with Winterfest lights, our amazing Christmas show, and more! After New Year’s, winter in Pigeon Forge becomes quieter and less busy, which means it’s a great time to come and experience the Smokies with fewer crowds. You’ll still be able to see the Winterfest light displays until the middle of February, and you may even get to experience a little snowfall! The best part is that our supper show continues to run even in the cold weather. Our lumberjacks and lumberjills are tough enough to handle anything, and you’ll be toasty warm under our heated amphitheater. Also, there are plenty of indoor attractions nearby to keep the whole family entertained, from indoor mini golf courses and a trampoline park to escape rooms, arcades, and more. Save on multiple attractions with the Park Hopper Pass!
