Grand Rod Run 2008
The
Spring Grand Rod Run is the kick-off event to a new season of
car shows. Thousands of classic car, truck and motorcycle enthusiasts
make the pilgrimage to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Sevierville, Tennessee and the Great
Smoky Mountains each year.
Pigeon Forge is a popular host to rod runs and car shows. The participants in these car shows are so eager to get the weekend started that the Parkway and hotel parking lots begin to fill with classic cars on Tuesday of that week. The events feature more than just rare and unique autos, though. Throughout the event weekend, visitors can enjoy interactive displays presented by vendors from all over the country. Those who enjoy the mechanical aspects of the auto world will savor the opportunity to participate in workshops and get answers to technical questions.
Are you traveling a long way from home for the car shows? A variety of welcoming lodging options are available to delight any visitor, including cabins, chalets, hotels, motels, campgrounds, condominiums, inns, luxury resorts, private suites and quaint bed & breakfasts.
Visitors can spend the day looking over the amazing amounts of cars, trucks, new products and swap meet items. However, at night there are great restaurants, theaters, and attractions like go-cart tracks, putt-putt courses and exhibits to enjoy. Every rod run and car show that Pigeon Forge hosts is an overwhelming success and a great experience for all who attend.
