One last month for Spring 2016, so the latter end of this month will make it worth the trip with two favorite special events going on at the same time.
Starting this Friday is Dollywood's "Barbeque and Bluegrass" Festival and it goes on until May 22nd. For this awesome week-and-a-half, the price of admission at Dollywood includes round-the-clock performances from Backline, Flatt Lonesome, The Boxcars, The Steeldrivers, Loose Strings Band, Steve Gulley & New Pinnacle and almost two dozen additional artists playing throughout the park and the best in pulled pork, smoked sausage, chicken and much more served at Market Square. See more on this at www.dollywood.com.
And then, start on May 18th and going on until the 22th is the new Spring version of the Wilderness Wildlife Week that for over a generation was held in January. Other than the seasonal change, the W3 is every bit the same as we've always enjoyed. The hikes, lectures, workshops and special guest appearances continue to exceed our expectations. You can get more information on that at http://www.mypigeonforge.com/events/wilderness-wildlife-week/.
Have an awesome May! We'll be back in June with more special events and news. www.allthesmokies.com
