Having never been here until February 2025, I was truly captured by them.

The lobby has the charm of the movie theatre we all went to back on main street, Soda, Water , Popcorn , snacks and THOSE PRETZELS ( I usually pass on pretzels but the Salty & Cinnamon Pretzels were a lovely and huge treat. Splurge and get icing or the cheese dip for $1)

We were here for The Smoky Mountain 26th annual Bible Conference, featuring Pastor Robert J . Morgan.

Three days in a row in this charming little venue. As Chelsi and Hugh opened there doors to 200 + guests from nearby and far away. ( Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan & Indiana )

I Hope the roll of pictures attached convey, capture & show the ARRAY in its best light, as it was a memorable event, location and highlight of my 2025 Pigeon...

My partner and I went there earlier tonight for the variety show and.. it’s something for sure. The dancers were epic. There was a secondary male singer who should be the lead. The aerial acts and the magicians were pretty good. The comedian was hilarious, and that’s a lot coming from me because I generally dislike ventriloquist acts. The two men from Argentina were phenomenal and truly engaging. The “main” male singer feels like a vocal coach who self inserted themselves into every role possible. He’s not a completely unfortunate singer, but it felt like he very much wanted the show to be about him… and he’s outshone each time the secondary male singer sings, especially in the phantom of the opera tribute. Also… I came to see the variety show, not the Christian show. I was preached at mid show for a good 20 minutes with both word and song. If I had wanted to come to the Christian show, I would have. So make sure to note that, even in a variety show, the main male takes time to shove religion down your throat. The prince of Egypt song, though, is always a pass. That song is perfection. The wardrobe was spectacular. All in all I very much enjoyed the secondary male performer and wished he had more lead songs, his range was stellar, and this place is seriously throwing out the baby with the water by not having him sing more solos than the...

We are huge fans of Pigeon Forge shows and usually see them every year.

This was a one and done for me. I am glad to have watched it once, but we will never waste our money on this show again. Which is sad because they have highly talented staff. The speciality acts were amazing and the singers and dancers were great. However, we HATED the song choices. So many were slow and draggy—even one on a different language that felt like it lasted forever. I understand they wanted an array of music, but the song choices are horrible. When I go see a show I want it to be upbeat and FULL of energy. This show was largely musical with boring songs—which is a shame because they have talented singers and dancers that could put on a good show.

They asked people to enter a “contest” be submitting Google reviews during intermission. I’m glad I didn’t—the first half was WAY better than the second. Most of the specialty acts are in the first half, the boring songs are the second half.

They also had a boring segment of “hand puppets.” That’s what kids do in elementary school—not what I want to pay $45 to watch.

I am glad I watched it once—but unless it gets a major overhaul on the music, I wouldn’t waste my money to go back. There is plenty of competition in town for shows, and I doubt this...
