The Big Rig Showdown is rolling into the Smoky Mountains!

Mark your calendars for July 31 & August 1, 2026, at the LeConte Center in Pigeon Forge for the Smoky Mountain Big Rig Showdown. This two-day event will feature the sharpest rigs in the nation, a truck parade, evening light show, music, food trucks, and family-friendly fun for all ages.

 

Guests can also enjoy a wide variety of vendors and take advantage of special lodging partner rates, making it the perfect summer getaway.

 

Last year, more than 155+ trucks from across the country entered the show, raising over $50,000 for charity. This year’s event will be even bigger, with proceeds benefiting Connect Church Christian School in Sevierville, Tennessee, & GO TEAM of Rosedale, Virginia, so every mile matters!

Come celebrate America’s trucking industry in one of the country’s favorite family vacation destinations.
