We are planning a trip to Gatlinburg during Christmas break. I see that the park is open the wknd after Christmas, but are the rides open? Isn't it freezing?
I know they do a huge light display, but I'd rather not pay $120 to go see lights. Can anyone give me some info?
TIA!

We've been a few times around Christmas and yes the rides are open. There are a few that are closed bc they're water rides but that's only 3 or 4 I believe. Very cold but still a blast and the lights are gorgeous. Have fun!

We went to Dollywood in December several years ago. Most of the rides that didn't involve water were open and running. The entire place was lit with lights and gorgeous decorations. They had shows you could watch but we didn't for some reason I can't remember. The movie Polar Express had recently been in theaters and there was a ride about it. The line was extremely long and mostly outside, so we skipped it.
When we went, it was very cold outside and we chose to layer up. DGD was just over a year old and we kept her bundled in her stroller the whole time. We enjoyed our visit and made some nice memories but I don't think we will do it again in the winter time.
If you go, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg are beautifully lit and decorated even after Christmas.

I don't know about Dollywood but that area is gorgeous in the winter ... Very likely you'll see snow!!

I love Dollywood at Christmas. I didn't ride much, but I love the shows. That's pretty much what I go for. I get a schedule and figure out how to hit most of them. Not sure what they will be having this year, but I think they have started doing A Christmas Carol.
