Puckett’s Pit Stop — Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion, Pigeon Forge

Puckett’s Pigeon Forge throws in with the Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion for a full day of Southern comfort food and live music timed to the Saturday of the rally, the busiest day of Invasion week. Sit-down service, a real menu, and a patio scene that fills up with Jeep folks between cruises down the strip.

Doors run 11 AM to 10 PM with exclusive Invasion perks for attendees who mention the event. It’s at 2480 Parkway — reservations are being taken again, so call ahead if you want a table rather than bar seating during the lunch rush.
