Explore Gatlinburg's Smoky Mountain Tunes & Tales

All through the months of June and July, Gatlinburg is alive with costumed storytellers, historical re-enactors, and musicians strolling the streets in downtown. This isn’t just another day in one of the best cities in the Smoky Mountains – this is the Smoky Mountain Tunes & Tales festival! Back for its 12th season, this daily festival offers fun for everyone from Friday, June 10, through July 29. This seven-week-long event is a real crowd pleaser, so be sure to nab your reservation at a cozy Gatlinburg cabin before they are all gone!

Why Choose a Gatlinburg Cabin for Tunes & Tales?

The Smoky Mountain Tunes & Tales is one of the most beloved traditions in Gatlinburg, letting history, entertainment, and plain old fun join together in a way that you can’t find anywhere else. But every vacation should also be relaxing. When you’ve had your fill of the daily festivities, you don’t want to retire to a cramped room overlooking a noisy highway or street. Gatlinburg cabins are located just minutes away from the festival, but are secluded enough to offer you many great benefits. Spread out in comfort with your whole family, enjoy the silence, and relax with some modern amenities.
