Discover shopping, dining, rides, and entertainment all in one place at The Island in Pigeon Forge. This family-friendly entertainment destination brings together more than 80 shops, restaurants, and attractions in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, with free admission and free parking.
One of The Island’s most recognizable attractions is the 200-foot-tall Great Smoky Mountain Wheel. Step inside a climate-controlled gondola and rise high above Pigeon Forge for panoramic views of the surrounding Smoky Mountains and Parkway. The Island also offers rides and attractions for a variety of ages, along with games, entertainment, and plenty of places to explore.
Dining is a big part of The Island experience. Sit down for a Southern-style meal at Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen, escape to the islands at Margaritaville Restaurant, grab a meal at Timberwood Grill, or enjoy pizza and more at Mellow Mushroom. Additional restaurants, snack stops, and sweet shops make it easy to turn a quick visit into an entire afternoon or evening.
Shoppers can explore dozens of specialty stores offering apparel, souvenirs, toys, gifts, home décor and Smoky Mountain keepsakes. The Island is also home to the free Island Fountain Show, where water, lights and music come together in choreographed performances throughout the day and evening.
Visitors who want to stay in the middle of the action can choose from two on-site hotels: Margaritaville Island Hotel and Margaritaville Island Inn. Both provide convenient access to The Island and the surrounding Pigeon Forge area.
With free admission, free parking, and plenty to see and do without purchasing a ticket, The Island makes it easy to customize your visit. Ride the Great Smoky Mountain Wheel, browse the shops, grab a bite to eat, catch a fountain show, or simply walk around and enjoy the atmosphere.
