Trick or Treating at Community Center
On October 24th, visit the Pigeon Forge Community Center for a non-scary, family-friendly trick or treating extravaganza! Businesses you are familiar with from the Pigeon Forge community have set up booths and interactive displays for your little ones to enjoy. Visit each business to let the little ones get all the candy they can carry!
Corn Maze & More
If you’re looking for an all-in-one stop, Kyker Farms it the place for you! Enjoy an expansive corn maze, pumpkin patch, hay rides, bonfire sites and more. The farm is family-friendly but turns a little scary on Friday and Saturdays after 8PM, when Kyker Farms After Dark emerges! The creatures of the corn maze arise for a haunted adventure that will make your skin crawl. Visit during the day or in the evening – there’s no going wrong!
Trick or Treat Kickoff Carnival
Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies is proud to present another great trick or treating event! Local Gatlinburg businesses will offer games, characters in costume, inflatable bounce houses and slides, candy and more at this Kickoff Carnival.

Halloween at The Island
On the spookiest night of the year, head to Pigeon Forge’s brightest (and only!) sky wheel! The Island at Pigeon Forge is hosting a free hay maze, hay rides, a kid’s circus and more. There will be candy stations at all of The Island’s stores, a costume contest, face painting, pumpkin carving and more. Did we mention the best part? Kids ride the wheel for free!
