Ober Gatlinburg - Open for Winter Sports!

Just wanted to let you know what Ober Gatlinburg is open for Winter Sports!

Ober Gatlinburg has long served the community during a slower winter season by being the only place for miles and miles to offer Winter Sports like skiing, snow boarding, snow tubing and ice skating, from now through the Winter Season.

The Aerial Tramway to Ober Gatlinburg is within walking distance or a very short drive from Sidney James. Our Lodge in downtown Gatlinburg will be the perfect spot to come back to after days of heavy snow sports. We have an indoor pool and sauna and many other ways to keep you warm until your next excursion out on the slopes.

Make your reservations to Sidney James and find out what they are!

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Gatlinburg Fantasy of Lights Parade!

The fun starts at 7:30 PM, December 3rd on the main strip of downtown Gatlinburg, from the Alamo Steakhouse to Stoplight #10 at the gates to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. All your favorite characters throughout the Christmas ages and dozens of floats will be in attendance and its guaranteed to be the most fun that evening for miles and miles around.

Don't miss it!

The Harvest Festival in Gatlinburg

Is there ever a bad time to come to the Smokies? No sir, but it is true some times are even better to come and stay then others.

October is one of those periods. Right now Ober Gatlinburg is celebrating Oktoberfest on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays in October plus the Ripley's Haunted Adventure is doing a show called "15 Nights of Halloween" which is sure to become a Halloween screamfest. The colors are here now and blooming as far as the eye can see and Sidney James puts you in a unique spot where you can get to all it with half the effort.

From Sidney James you can walk to the downtown area in 10 minutes (or a much quicker drive) or you can take advantage of our trolley stop to hit the Arts and Crafts Community, a must-stop for the autumn season, and come back for only bus fare. Come back for our indoor pool, exercise room, indoor sauna and poolside cafe where energy and relaxation go hand in hand.

25 Years of Dollywood

As soon as the gates open on March 27th, 2010, the flood begins. Thousands and thousands of eager guests who have been waiting for the perennial Festival of the Nations since as early as last year, quickly fill the park to see all the many new additions and familiar traditions Dollywood brings year after year.

This year, Festival of the Nations features "DRUM!" culminating Aboriginal, Black, Celtic and Acadian cultures into an exhilirating performance of music and dance and more. "Invaders" is an island-steel ensemble performing the sound of Trinidad. Atahualpa returns for another great year of South American music and Imagine returns too after a popular, grand performance from last year's Festival of the Nations.

Another thing to look forward to is the advent of Adventure Mountain for 2010. It's a new section of park designed as an outdoor obstacle course and even those who don't like to play outside will have a hard time staying away!

Finally, 2010 makes it the 25th year Dollywood has been entertaining families here in the Smokies. 25 years hasn't gone by unnoticed and we hope for Dollywood to stay open another 25 years at least! Stay tuned to see what Dollywood might be thinking for celebrating its 25th year in business!
