There are over 40,000 people along the Parkway in Gatlinburg TN waiting on the ball to drop. Venders will have many goodies for onlookers to purchase. There will also be party hats and noisemakers being given out. Along the Parkway you will be able to find plenty of entertainment to keep you occupied until the countdown begins. The ball will drop at the Space Needle as on lookers countdown to the new year. Enjoy the countdown with all of Gatlinburg TN and have a great memory of bringing in the New Year.

There will be a huge fireworks display to be shot off at midnight and the party will begin. Since this event will be a highly populated, most people will be arriving to the Parkway around 8:00pm, but the street party won’t start until 11:00pm. Don’t forget about all the shops around downtown Gatlinburg. Parking will be in high demand so if you have a place to park your car and walk to town it would be highly advised.

If you plan to be in attendance on New Years Eve, we highly suggest reserve a Gatlinburg cabin within close proximity of downtown Gatlinburg. Walking to town is your best bet. With this being a resort town and it being New Years Eve, please be aware that the police will be active in looking for any wrong doing.
