The Rod Run now lives on, more than 40 years after making the move to Pigeon Forge. Event organizers host two Rod Run events per year, one in the spring and one in the fall. Thousands of cars and trucks lines the streets of US-441, which is still the ultimate cruising area. The actual car show is held at the LeConte Center, where a huge turnout of cars and vendors packs the giant convention center and spills into the adjacent parking lot. The show features high-end show cars, restored muscle cars, classics and customs of all varieties. The event runs from Thursday to Saturday, offering three full days of action, while the Parkway starts filling in several days prior, as folks jockey for premium parking spots.
Let’s take a look at some of the wildest creations and restored classics that make the Pigeon Forge Rod Run one of the most diverse car shows in the world. It totally consumes the town and provides memory-making experiences for car enthusiasts young and old.
