A three-day event held in September is one that any car enthusiast will not want to miss. The Pigeon Forge Rod Run is the largest automotive event in the area. Walk down the Parkway and watch as street rods, classic cars and more cruise through town. They are all vying for the $10,000 cash giveaway as well as prizes for the Top 25, Ultimate 5 and King of the Hill. There is a swap meet with many show cars and a car corral.
