Tennessee really knows how to bring out creative holiday events for us to enjoy each season from epic ice sculptures to caverns aglow with festive lights to creepy horror shows taking fun and whimsical stories to whole new levels of fright. Here are a few fun and original holiday events in Tennessee:
- Ice!: The Gaylord Opryland Resort takes over two million pounds of ice and transforms it into a winter wonderland that is simply spectacular. Each year is a new theme combining ice sculptures with fanciful displays and over four million lights to create a whimsical playground of Christmas magic.
- Christmas at the Caverns: Another unique Christmas event is held at the Cherokee Caverns in Knoxville, TN. This underground holiday event features cave tours decorated with holiday lights, sweet treats, holiday music, Santa visits, and maybe even an appearance from the Grinch. No matter how frightful the weather outside gets, the caverns are always a delightful 58 degrees.

Krampus takes our favorite holiday stories and wakes them up cold and shivering with fear. This fun holiday haunted house is a whole new way to enjoy the holidays that you probably never would have thought of, until now. Krampus the Christmas demon is waiting for you...
