What to Expect
When you visit a Pigeon Forge car show, you can expect to be spending time with a lot of people who have the same interests as you! Visiting a car show is completely free, unless you’re showing a car or visiting an event at the LeConte Center. At the LeConte Center, there’s going to be a small fee to attend (likely around $10) and if you’re showing a vehicle, you’ll have to register your car at the official websites listed above.
For the Pigeon Forge car shows that take place along the Parkway, you can drive up and down the street to view the cars, or even park, wander around or pick a spot to set up and enjoy the afternoon.
Things You Need
If you plan to spend the day visiting a car show, it’s a good idea to take folding chairs or at least blankets for setting up a spot and relaxing. It’s also great to pack a cooler with snacks or meals for the events that are held along the Parkway.
