Celebrate the Holiday's at the Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge

#Sponsored By the Titanic Museum & USFG

(Read at the bottom to see how you can WIN tickets for your family to go see the Titanic Museum this Holiday Season!!!)

I've been itching to visit the Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge for months now and haven't had the change to make it out there yet. Maybe waiting was a good thing because I had no idea that they celebrate the Holiday's in STYLE!
Let me explain....

The fun begins on Thanksgiving Day! Wednesday, November 28th at 7:30pm, Prepare to be amazed! The night sky will light up with colorful sparks of light during the Titanic Museum’s second annual fireworks extravaganza, honoring the lives and legacies of each of the ship’s passengers, crew and rescuers. It will, for sure, be the largest fireworks show of the year on the Smoky Mountain Parkway. It's truly something that you don't want to miss! "We look forward to celebrating a joyful evening with our community friends and neighbors.” announces John Joslyn, expedition leader of the 1st private exploration dive to Titanic and co-owner of the Titanic Museum Attraction.

“Since the Titanic Museum Attraction’s grand opening in 2010, fireworks have been seen as glowing tributes to the 2,208 passengers and crew who sailed on Titanic,” said Joslyn, “Our Thanksgiving fireworks display also serves to usher in a new holiday Christmas season of hope and promise for all of us,” adds Joslyn.

The firework show isn't the only thing that you should be looking forward to when it comes to the Titanic Museum Attraction this Holiday Season... The Titanic Fantasy Princess brings new Holiday Magic to Pigeon Forge in a way that's never been done before!

“Our Fantasy Princess will be here to greet little girls and boys and help make their holiday dreams come true,” announces John Joslyn, “She will embody the holiday season’s magic and mystery shared by children of 1912 and today.”

The Titanic Fantasy Princess is a beautiful new addition to the annual Titanic Christmas Winter Wonderland, which features thousands of outstanding holiday lights, Edwardian-style decorations, costumed "merry-makers" and a Gift Shoppe full of one-of-a-kind goodies! Not to mention that the little ones will get the opportunity to pose in a photo with the princess herself. What a magical moment that will be! (My girls would be so excited! I can't wait!)

The Live Appearances will be from 1-8pm

“Every day we remember and honor the men, women and children who sailed on Titanic, but this is especially so during the holidays. You’ll truly experience what a Titanic Christmas voyage might have been like 101 years ago,” Joslyn mentions.

If you think it all sounds like a dream.... There's more!! It's hard to believe that one attraction can offer so much but it's true! The Titanic Museum just keeps on giving!

It WILL snow this season in Pigeon Forge! The Titanic Museum Attraction guarantees it!! Starting on Thanksgiving evening, (Thursday, November 28th) it will snow – yes, REAL snow – on the Titanic. The snow will be part of the museum’s Christmas in a Winter Wonderland Celebration, which is meant to honor and celebrate the lives of all 2,208 passengers and crew of the Titanic itself.

On Thanksgiving and every Saturday in December, (starting at 7:30pm) the Titanic will create real snow falling off the bow of the ship! (Doesn't it sound wonderful?!) Not to mention that the entire ship, from inside and out will be twinkling with Christmas lights and lots of decorations.

“Everything about our Christmas in a Winter Wonderland Celebration is aimed at giving our visitors and their families a unique, memorable holiday experience. A memory that will last forever – and isn’t that what Christmas is all about?” exclaims John Joslyn
Yes John Joslyn... Creating memories and spending time with family IS what Christmas is all about!

Plan Your Trip to Gatlinburg

The Great Smoky Mountains is such a beautiful area in America. Visitors get the chance to explore, learn and experience a different way of living. The gateway into the Great Smoky Mountains is the spectacular community of Gatlinburg, Tennessee. With the many recycling methods that is offered throughout Gatlinburg, including a State-of-the-art composting plant and wonderful recycling center, up to 70% of municipal waste that is collected in the area does not find it's way into a landfill! Being the welcoming community of Great Smoky Mountains, Gatlinburg holds the task of preserving and protecting the wildlife and everything surrounding it. Even their annual Winter Magic Holiday Celebration of Lights has went green bu switching every light bulb to LED lights to use less electricity! To make things ever better, The Chamber of Commerce's Gatlinburg Goes Green program has over 75% of local businesses working together to help keep the environment safe and clean. All of the hard work that's put into keeping the Great Smoky Mountains preserved for all time, has allowed the mass history of Gatlinburg to shine bright and take center stage.

Throughout the area of Gatlinburg, you can find many historic sites that are still standing today, including Martha Jane Huskey Ogle's cabin which was the first home to be built in Galtinburg in 1807,  which was then known as White Oak Flats. The name if Gatlinburg came much later. Martha Ogle was not the first one to come to White Oak Flats, it was her husband, William Ogle, who first came to the valley in 1803 and described Tennessee as "The Land of Paradise" to his family in South Carolina, east of the Smoky Mountains. He passed away in 1803, before he could bring his family to "The Land of Paradise". His widow settled in White Oak Flats in 1807 with her 2 daughters and 5 sons, along with her brother and his family. Martha's cabin was built out of logs that her late husband had collected for their future cabin, before he passed, becoming the first home built in the vally. Many years later, in 1856, a man named Radford C. Gatlin arrived in town. He was known as a very controversial man due to his political views and later got banished for those views, but not before he built the area's 2nd General Store and a Post Office. After a while, the area of White Oak Flats started being called Gatlinburg, which was the name of the post office. After Radford C. Gatlin was banished, his name stayed behind, labeling the once known valley of White Oak Flats, Gatlinburg. Once the U.S. Government purchased thousands of acres of land, which they stripped of most vegetation,  The Great Smoky Mountain's National Park was born, in the 1930's. It wasn't long after that tourism started booming! Throughout the years, Gatlinburg has grown into a four-season resort as well as a wonderful family and friend destination. Even though the tourist industry has been welcomed into Gatlinburg, Appalachian culture is still thriving today. More that 100 small shops and restaurants are tucked into an 8-mile loop in the Smoky Mountains who are proudly known as the Great Smoky Arts and Crafts Community. Established in 1937, Great Smoky Arts & Crafts Community is the largest group of independent artisans in North America! Visitors are taken back in time when they visit this Artist's Paradise. 

Historic Sites in Gatlinburg:

• Martha Jane Huskey Ogle's Cabin (1st home in Gatlinburg) - Now homes a Community Center
• E.L. Reagan's Custom Furniture, Established in 1910 - The oldest operating site of it's kind in Gatlinburg.
• Pi Beta Phi Settlement School, Established in 1912 - Now an Educational Center
