Gatlinburg Convention Center

The Gatlinburg Convention Center is a very large and spacious venue for shows of every type. There is plenty of parking, with easy in and out access. Inside there are elevators and escalators making getting around very easy and all areas accessible. Lots of convenient restrooms is also very nice.

A very nice convention center. The outside is beautiful with flowers everywhere

We had a great time at the Gatlinburg Convention Center for our franchise owner's conference. The venue was well-equipped and spacious, meeting all our event needs. The staff, from coordinators to on-site support, were professional and attentive. They went the extra mile to accommodate any last-minute adjustments, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable.

Great event venue and a beautiful reflection of the region. Appears modest in size from the outside but this place had well over a thousand people in it for the event I attended. Normally I prefer more bathrooms in an event center, but at least the one for the vendors was easy to get to and CLEAN.

Beautiful place. Went to a dance competition and it was the perfect place for it. Plenty of room and a great view to look out over Gatlinburg!

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 enjoyed it. Lots of great crafts. Glass artist was amazing. So much to see. No China made stuff. Good time. I bought some tasty Pecan green tea. Native American tea company.

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.

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.

Craft week Loved it 10 dollar entrnce fwe and a hole lot of talent.

The October Craft fair was awesome. There is so much variety of hand crafted items. Loved it. Such a refreshing change from the ones that bill themselves as a craft fair and the vendors are selling imported items.

Awesome selection of artists displaying and selling their wares. Parking across the street made access easy. Reasonable entry fee with ability to make a return visit.

The trees were fun to look at! We were able to have pictures taken in the sleigh, too.

I love to see what's new each year! The wooden cell phone speaker amplifiers were pretty cool 😎 I always look forward to seeing what interesting new spices, rubs, soups, and dips are available.

Beautiful venue, well maintained. Was there for a Bluegrass music festival. Great sound. All the staff are very nice and helpful.

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 arrived Gatlinburg in early June.This small town looks like a fairy tale.People come from all over the US,just to stay here for vocation,especially take this place as a base camp for visiting and hiking the Great Smoky Mountain.We hung out on the downtown Gatlinburg,the buildings and shops here are clean and colourful.

Great time here. Had gone for Craftman show. Very talented people beautiful designs. Vendors from across the nation. Will visit next time they come around

Wonder experience. Staff very friendly. Went and saw the Gather vocal Band Memorial Day weekend.
Got to meet Kevin Williams in person.

Went and Saw the Ricky Skaggs Concert. It was a great place. Wish the seating was alittle different but great concert
