What a week it's going to be in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee as we celebrate the birth of our nation here in the Great Smoky Mountains. One way to experience true freedom is to experience our Pigeon Forge zipline tours, which allow you to zoom through the air among the treetops. You'll have a bird's-eye view of all the great mountain scenery as you feel the exhilaration of the wind rushing through your hair.
And while you're in town, be sure to stick around for the 23rd Annual Patriot Festival at Patriot Park. The fun begins at noon on the 4th with games and activities for the kids. Onstage entertainment starts at 1:30 p.m. and includes performances by the Pigeon Forge Community Chorus and an Eagles tribute band.
The headline entertainers for the day will be Larry Gatlin & the Gatlin Brothers. The Grammy award-winning trio has been cranking out number one hits for decades, including "All The Gold In California," "Broken Lady" and "Houston."
At approximately 9:30 p.m., the Patriot Festival will come to a booming finale with a fireworks display synchronized to music. Food vendors will be onsite throughout the event, with a portion of their proceeds benefiting area charities.
Admission is free, parking is free at the municipal lot on Teaster Lane, and shuttle service from lot to Patriot Park is free.
