2013 is just a few days away, so make your plans to join the street party Monday night around the base of the Space Needle in Gatlinburg. It’s the region’s unsurpassed celebration to welcome the New Year, the 25th Annual New Year’s Eve Ball Drop and Fireworks Show. (more…)

This Friday evening, December 7, don’t miss the 37th annual, 2012 Gatlinburg Fantasy of Lights Christmas Parade. The parade lineup features over 100 entries, marching bands from home and neighboring states, and some great, giant helium balloons. 


It’s winter lights kickoff week in the region and that means a whole lot of lights sparkling – millions of them in fact, and for the next four months of celebration. As the hundreds of thousands of visitors who come for the lights can attest, ’tis the season once again to be dazzled!
