One of the biggest celebrations we attend every year is on New Year's Eve. We make plans to be kinder, lose weight, quit smoking- what ever it is we do not like about ourselves. So what better way to ring in a new start then to go to the biggest party we can find.

Gatlinburg Tennessee, known as the gateway to the Smokey Mountains, is no stranger to throwing a party. Over ten million tourists visit Gatlinburg every year. The annual Winter fest Celebration is on the way with over two million lights to brighten the beautiful mountain scenery.

Gatlinburg's annual Celebrations have been noted as "One of the most popular public New Year's Celebrations in America." With New Year's Eve festivities beginning around 11:00 p.m., it is nothing short of an all out street party. Forty Thousand people are estimated to attend this year's street party at the Gatlinburg Space Needle. The Space Needle and Family Fun Center is located across from the Gatlinburg Convention Center. You will be able to gaze into the breathtaking views from the 342-feet high observation deck. The Family Fun center includes the following: a simulated roller-coaster, Air hockey, pool, Arcade games, a Taste Freeze and Old Time Photo and lots more. There will be a live DJ playing today's top music for your listening pleasure. Free party favors are given out to everyone, hats for the men and tiaras for the women. The Hard Rock Café will also be providing live entertainment. The Hard Rock Café opened in September of 1999 and is the number one place for rock and roll and having a good time. This Hard Rock is a one of a kind as being the only one with a wedding chapel located inside. The Hard Rock staff will do their signature interpretative performance of "YMCA." At midnight atop the 342-foot space needle, you will get to see a Times Square like ball drop followed by a spectacular fireworks display that can be seen all over the city.
