Autumn is in the air in the Great Smoky Mountains!
Sept. 8 – Oct. 31
Autumn has arrived in the Great Smoky Mountains, and there’s no better place to experience the season and the changing leaves than at Anakeesta: Gatlinburg’s award-winning theme park. During Anakeesta’s Hallow Mountain Event which runs from September. 8 – October. 31, visitors can enjoy Halloween themed dĂ©cor throughout the park. Step into Black Bear Village and taste Bavarian themed food and drink specials, while listening to live music. Make you way to Vista Gardens and stroll through stunning nature inspired pumpkin carvings. As day changes to night, and the sun dips below the mountains in the distance, our lights come on for you to experience Anakeesta at Night. The whole village becomes awash in colors of orange, purple, and a mystical green. Around every corner is another whimsical piece of nature-themed Halloween dĂ©cor. We can’t wait to see you.
A wonderful experience awaits during Autumn at Anakeesta as guests are greeted by some of the sounds of the season. Monday through Sunday guests can enjoy live music in Black Bear Village while they relax and take in the fall colors of the Great Smoky Mountains. From classic Bluegrass to the latest country hits and holiday classics, Anakeesta’s stage will be set with the very best bands in Tennessee.
Live music is always free with admission. Download our Anakeesta app to stay up to date with our full line up of musical events: ANAKEESTA APP
The flavors of Fall are apparent in dishes and drinks at all of Anakeesta’s eateries. Try a pumpkin spice latte at Pearl’s Pie in the Sky or enjoy an elevated experience at our Cliff Top restaurant with delicious, autumn-themed dishes.
Autumn in the Smoky Mountains is a beautiful experience, and guests can get up close to fall colors and immerse themselves in East Tennessee’s most impressive plant life within Vista Gardens.
