TRAFFIC TIPS TRAVELING WITH PETS
Some events, including car shows and parades,
attract thousands of visitors to Pigeon Forge,
and that means traffic delays during these one-
to three-day events. Turn to page 17, where
you’ll find a list of all special events, and the
ones that include this symbol
will cause
traffic congestion. Please note those dates and
plan your visit accordingly. Remember, all events
are subject to rescheduling or cancellation, so
please confirm with the Department of Tourism at
1-800-251-9100 when planning your visit. If you travel with a pet, there are a number of
lodging options from which to choose. You’ll find
them marked with this pet-friendly symbol
in the accommodations listing. Contact the
accommodation of your choice prior to traveling
to get their specific pet policies. If you’re spending
the day at Dollywood, you can reserve space for
your pup at Doggywood.
