Winterfest Driving Tour of Lights
Some of the best holiday views in the Smokies don’t require leaving the car. During Winterfest, Pigeon Forge lines its roads with more than 5 million lights, and the Winterfest Driving Tour of Lights is a self-guided route past the biggest displays. Pack the car with blankets and hot cocoa, queue up a holiday playlist, and take it slow. The 2026–27 season runs Nov. 6, 2026 – Feb. 15, 2027.
