It's difficult to plan a trip that guarantees an opportunity to view this phenomenon. The mating season of the Synchronous Fireflies only lasts for 2-3 weeks in late Spring, typically landing somewhere between the last week of May and the third week of June. Seasonal changes in weather and temperature affect the exact timing of the display. Due to high interest in the event, admission is also limited to guests who enter and win a lottery for vehicle passes. (Submit your application between April 28 and May 1, 2023). 100 vehicles are awarded the permits each night of the display. However, if you're planning a visit to The Smoky Mountains in late May or June, we certainly recommend checking the National Park Website for a chance to see this once-in-a-lifetime experience!
The Heritage Center's unique Appalachian village and museum will be alive with the sounds and smells of the way life used to be in the Smoky Mountains!
Directly after the Tastes of the Smokies event, there is an optional concert starting at 7:30 p.m. featuring long time country artist and CMA entertainer Carlene Carter. Dusty Leigh will open up
