Massive New “Crayola Experience” Coming to Popular Tennessee City in 2024

The Pigeon Forge-Gatlinburg area of Tennessee is a popular travel destination for several reasons. I think you'd have put the beautiful scenery provided by Mother Nature at the top of the list, but there are also plenty of great shopping, food, entertainment, and family activities to choose from. Matter of fact, before 2024 is through, there will be one more big, colorful, and fun reason to visit Pigeon Forge.

The Crayola Experience

Kids of all ages (including us grown-up kids) love playing with Crayola crayons and markers, so how can you NOT be excited about an entire (massive) building dedicated to one of our favorite toys?

The Pigeon Forge Crayola Experience is a 30,000-square-foot indoor family entertainment center featuring more than 20 hands-on attractions and a retail store boasting the world's largest selection of Crayola products and unique souvenirs. Your "experience" will also include never-before-seen attractions, and one-of-a-kind Crayola Experience activities such as naming their own Crayola crayon, starring in your own coloring page, and creating melted wax art.
