Car enthusiasts from around the nation will gather for the Pigeon Forge Rod Run! If you love classic cars and automotive history, you simply cannot miss this massive, three-day event! The Pigeon Forge Rod Run is the area's largest automotive event, which has roots dating back to the 1970s. You may be familiar with this event by other names from previous variations, including Shades of the Past and The Grand Run. The 2024 event will feature top 25 awards, ultimate 5 awards, $10,000 cash giveaway, a huge swap meet, hundreds of showcars and more! Can't join the action this Fall? Make plans to attend the Spring Rod Run in the April! Our campground will celebrate the Rod Run with a special weekend filled with 1950s-inspired fun, including a Sock Hop! The event will be held at the LeConte Center, which is approximately 1.5 miles from the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg KOA Holiday. Consider beating the traffic by walking or biking from the campground to the LeConte Center along the Riverwalk Greenway! The Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg KOA is a featured lodging partner for the Pigeon Forge Rod Runs.
