Best Way to Experience a Pigeon Forge Car Show
Visiting Pigeon Forge for a car show is a lot of fun, but we know you’ll love these tips for helping make your experience even better!
Arrive Early to Find the Best Spot
If you arrive a little earlier than the rush of the crowds, you will be able to find a much better spot for the day. For events taking place along the Parkway, we recommend packing a fold out chair or blankets so you can set up a spot to “camp out” for the day. If you plan to arrive a little early, you can stop in one of the nearby restaurants and grab a bite to eat while you wait for the crowds to arrive.
Walk the Parkway Instead of Driving Your Car
Instead of driving up and down the Parkway throughout the day, park your car and walk the Parkway. When you walk, you’re avoiding traffic and you’ll also be able to browse through all of the cars instead of just driving by to see them.
Pack Snacks
Don’t forget to pack a few snacks and drinks in a cooler for any of the events that take place outside or along the Parkway. This way, you will be able to save a little money by not having to go out and purchase snacks and drinks throughout the day.
