Although the temperatures outside might be chilly, that doesn’t mean that the fun stops in Pigeon Forge! There are plenty of indoor attractions that you can visit for hours of entertainment during the cold winter months. In fact, the winter can be the best time to visit the Smokies as there are fewer crowds and you can often have even the most popular attractions practically to yourself! Here are the top 4 fun indoor attractions in Pigeon Forge that you can enjoy during the winter season:
1. Titanic Museum Attraction
Step inside the Titanic Museum Attraction to see what it was like to walk the hallways, cabins, parlors and Grand Staircase of the world’s most famous luxury liner! When entering the ship, you will receive the boarding pass of an actual Titanic passenger and feel their presence as you examine over 400 artifacts taken directly from the ship and its passengers. During your self-guided tour, take the opportunity to touch a real iceberg, reach your hands into 28 degree water and walk on sloped decks to see what it must have been like to experience the Titanic’s fateful voyage.
2. Rockin’ Raceway Arcade
Head through the doors of a giant jukebox to enter the Rockin’ Raceway Arcade, a massive arcade that is filled from one end of the building to the other with exciting games of all types! Adults will love playing timeless favorites while kids enjoy playing redemption games to win prizes ranging from tootsie rolls to Ipads! The Rockin’ Raceway Arcade uses a convenient rechargeable play card system where you can add cash value for both the video and redemption games. Spend one afternoon in the arcade, then come back later in your trip to play some more games with your rechargeable card!
3. MagiQuest
Another one of the fun indoor attractions in Pigeon Forge is Magiquest, a journey of a lifetime through a world of imagination! This is a unique interactive role playing adventure where you embark into an enchanted fantasy world and use a real magic wand to solve the mysteries of the game!

4. Alcatraz East Crime Museum
