About the Pigeon Forge Christmas Lights Tour
Every year, the Pigeon Forge Christmas Lights Tour takes guests on an enchanted drive along the Pigeon Forge Parkway where guides share stories of both Pigeon Forge history and the popular Winterfest displays. The best part about this tour is that guests are able to see the lights without having to worry about the hassle of driving and dealing with traffic.
All you and your family have to do is sit back and enjoy the ride.
Illuminated displays that can be seen on the Pigeon Forge Christmas Lights Tour includes snowflakes, reindeer, Smoky Mountain wildlife and representations of the 12 Days of Christmas.
The Smoky Mountain Winterfest began 25 years ago to help encourage families and guests to visit the area during the colder months of the year. A joint effort between the cities of Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, as well as Dollywood, the Smoky Mountain Winterfest has quickly become one of the most popular seasonal events in the area.
