Gatlinburg Harvest Festival

To fully embrace the fall season, the City of Gatlinburg is expanding Smoky Mountain Harvest Festival beginning mid-September through late November. The extension of the Harvest Festival offers visitors more time to plan a trip to the Smokies during the peak of the fall season.
