Harvest Festival is an all-encompassing fall event featuring the best in live entertainment, scrumptious food and, of course, pumpkins. During the day, the park is awash with vivid color, and the sounds of our award-winning rides fill the fall air with a sense of adventure. As the sun sets, Great Pumpkin LumiNights presented by Covenant Health transforms Dollywood into an eye-catching display of illuminated jack-o-lanterns and harvest-themed spectacles. You don't want to miss it.
