Gatlinburg Convention Center

David Fortenberry

Great experience all around. I highly recommend the Gatlinburg Craftsmen's Fair July and October. Some of the best arts and crafts you will find anywhere. The promoters ensure it is a family friendly and fun event everytime.

I love the convention center! Xtreme Winter is always hosted here and the staff in the building is great! The conference room is always clean whenever we go back the next day or next session. It's also within walking distance of the strip and many different gift shops.

We had a wonderful time watching the junior clogging championship and see the 44th craftsmen show. Everyone was really nice. The events were unexpected additions for our visit to Gatlinburg.

We attended the craft show in Gatlinburg. Vendors from all over were there selling their crafts. Ranging from stuffed toys, wood working, jewelry, signs, custom wood boxes. To antiques, knives, food, drinks, alcoholic, making your own bourbon. To making slashes at home. Walking up to the Convention Center you are met with the sound of a chain saw. Inside a enclosed area you see a person carving wood with a chain saw. There are multiple pieces displayed created by the artist. We purchased the bear in the photo. If you asked the artist @ each stand if you could video the demonstration they said yes. We were also allowed to take pictures. They offer a Military service discount of the entrance fee. We sent just shy of 2hrs. inside the center. Restrooms were spotless. Plenty of people working to give assistance when needed. All of the vendors were fantastic. We actually found Christmas gifts. I highly recommend visiting the craft show. Once you finish the craft show wonder around Gatlinburg. Shops line both sides of the street. Ranging from clothing, food, Moonshine, wine, icecream to toys. Restrooms are located in different areas. Parking is available in several locations. We parked across the street from the Space Needle. We paid $5.00 for all day. Be prepared to walk several miles each way. There are multiple arcades and minature golf sites. Along with multiple rope courses.
