6 Fun Things to Do in Pigeon Forge

Saturday, March 17, 2018
Pigeon Forge is a charming town surrounded by the Great Smoky Mountains in eastern Tennessee. There are so many things to do in Pigeon Forge, including some of the best attractions in the entire Smoky Mountain area. From fun attractions to restaurants and relaxing places to stay, there is no shortage of fun things to do here. Bring along your entire family and sure to have the time of their lives while on vacation in Pigeon Forge.

Here are some of my favorite attractions in Pigeon Forge:

1. Visit the Titanic Museum Attraction
If you are a huge Titanic movie fan you will really enjoy this museum. The Titanic Museum is shaped like a replica of the ship. When you first check in you will receive a boarding pass of a real Titanic passenger and experience what it was like to sail on the RMS Titanic while surrounded by more than 400 artifacts. Touch a real iceberg, walk the Grand Staircase and third class hallways, feel it with  your own hands the 28-degree water, and try to stand on the sloping decks. At the end of the tour you can see whether or not the person on your card survived. Give yourself a good 2 hrs to go through this exhibit.  It is definitely a walk through history and very informative.

2. Visit Wonderworks
WonderWorks is an amusement park the exterior design of the building sets you up for a fabulous experience. The whole aesthetic outside is very cool with everything being upside down including the trees. With over 100 interactive exhibits for visitors of all ages. It does have some cool features such as: the trembling of a 6.0 Earthquake, lasertag arena, make human-size bubbles in the bubble lab, fly a fighter jet, lie on a bed of nails, ride to roller coaster simulation, experience rock climbing and test your skills on the New 50ft tall indoor ropes challenge course. You'll enjoy "The Wonders Of Magic" starring master magician Terry Evanswood.

3. Visit Hollywood Wax Museum 
You don't have to travel to the West Coast to see your favorite celebrities up close.

The two-story Museum brings Pigeon Forge tourists and locals into the world of Hollywood Stars and allows visitors to get close to some of the most famous people in show business, recreated so faithfully that you'd swear they are were alive. Hollywood Wax Museum houses tons of uncanny replicas, lots of  fun photo opportunities for any ages.

Buckle into your armchair and pick up your pistol as you prepare to see, hear, feel and smell the chaos while shooting for the highest score. Winners are shown on-screen at the end of every haunted ride.

5. Visit Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Show
The Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Show become part of the longest running feud in history. Upon entering you get tickets, take pictures, then enter the theater. Inside the theater is where the entertainment begins. For dinner-- they offers all you can eat fried chicken, pulled pork, corn on the cob, cole slaw, mashed potatoes, dinner roll, tea/soda, & pudding. About the show: whether you're city-folk or country cousin, you'll love the singing and dancing, mighty feats of strength, jaw dropping stunts and side-splitting comedy.  The chaos doesn't stop with fighting cousins.

    1. Pigeon Forge is not only for fun and amusement park. The Smoky Mountain is paradise for those who like adventure like hiking, zip-lining or river rafting. The mountain is pretty all year round. What I love the most is staying on a cabin and just admiring the beauty of Smokies on the outside deck.

  19. In Pigeon Forge there’s one show you don’t want to miss and it’s Country Tonite. The spectacular show features a variety of song, choreography, comedy and costume, impressive for the sheer quality of the talented performances and the seamless flow of the fast-paced, dynamic show.
