If you’re planning a Smoky Mountains Vacation for the family, you’ll want to carve out some time to visit some of the top Pigeon Forge attractions. To save you time and money, try these tips and places to find discounts on the top shows and attractions in Pigeon Forge, TN.
Are There Any Discounts For Dollywood?
More than likely, Dollywood will be your most expensive Pigeon Forge attraction, but it is also the best Pigeon Forge Attraction in my humble opinion. Discount tickets are often available through various venues, but one of our favorite ways to score a big discount for the entire family is to purchase a season pass during the Christmas Season. By doing so, your family can enjoy all the magic and beauty of Dollywood and the Smoky Mountains Christmas lights and continue to visit the Tennessee theme park for the entire next season including the Dollywood Christmas season again. If you’re planning to visit Dollywood more than ONE TIME in a year, it’s well worth it to purchase the season pass at the end of the season and use it the following year.
Insider Tip: Purchase a Gold Ticket for ONE MEMBER of your family to receive free parking all season, 20% discount on food and merchandise, and other special Gold member discounts throughout the year.
If you’re only going to get a one time per year trip to the Smokies, [I’m sorry 🙁 ], here’s a few other opportunities to score some discount tickets to Dollywood.
