Love is in the Air Event
During Love is in the Air, the entire park will be lit up with Valentine's Day themed lights. You’ll definitely be able to feel the love in the air, whether you go with friends, family, or your sweetheart. The SkyBridge becomes the “Bridge of Love”. It is made of 18,000 lights that are strung on the bridge and spans 300 feet, creating a tunnel of lights. Walking across the SkyBridge under the tunnel of lights is something you won’t want to miss out on. On each Friday, a few lucky guests will receive Surprise and Delight Prize Packs with fun souvenirs to take back home and remember their experience.
The entire Gatlinburg SkyPark will be decked out in decorations. If you've been waiting for the perfect moment to propose to your sweetheart, the Love is in the Air event is the perfect time!
This event is included in the regular admission of the park. It runs from February 7 to February 28, and the park is open from 9 am to 9 pm every day.
More About Gatlinburg SkyPark
If you’ve never been to this incredible attraction, then you definitely should visit the next time you’re in town! Gatlinburg SkyPark is something everyone can enjoy, from small children to older adults. To get to the top of Crockett Mountain, you ride on the chairlift. Then you will step out onto the SkyDeck, which is a huge observation deck where you can take in the sweeping mountain views.
