Top 4 Features of the Gatlinburg Space Needle

Jul. 15, 2021

As one of the most popular attractions in the Smoky Mountains, the Gatlinburg Space Needle is a must see for first time visitors or for anyone who has never been inside of it before. While it is best known for offering breathtaking views of the Smokies, there are many fascinating features that go along with it. Here are 4 of the best features of the Gatlinburg Space Needle:

1. Thrilling Arcadia

Arcadia Space NeedleAs the largest fun center in the region, Arcadia features over 30,000 square feet of arcade fun and is located at the bottom of the Space Needle. They have hundreds of the most popular arcade games to experience. They also have some of the best name-brand prizes of any arcade in the area. If you collect enough tickets, you can pick from prizes that are made by brands such as Sony, Playstation, Apple, Coach, and many more. The redemption counter at Arcadia is just one of the many reasons to visit Arcadia when you take a trip to the Gatlinburg Space Needle.

2. The Rich History

As you make your way up the 407-foot observation tower, you will be able to learn all about Gatlinburg and the Smoky Mountains. There are multiple different placards that give you facts of the different things you will see from the top of the tower. There is also an information exhibit that uses higher learning tools to show educational truths about the past history of Gatlinburg and how it has transformed into what it is today. When you adventure to the Gatlinburg Space Needle, not only will you be treated to a great view but you will be able to learn about the area you are seeing.

3. Amazing Views

GatlinburgThe view of the Smoky Mountains is the main feature that you will experience when you visit the Space Needle. Once you are over 400 feet in the air, you will venture onto an observation deck that offers a 360-degree view of the Smokies. From the deck, you will be able to see the town below, the surrounding national park, and even Mount LeConte. Obviously, on clearer days the visibility will be much better than days that are cloudy or foggy. The most popular time of year to visit the Space Needle is in Autumn when the leaves on the trees begin to change. However, no matter what time of year you are visiting, the Gatlinburg Space Needle is worth visiting to see the amazing panoramic view of the Smoky Mountains.

4. Impossibilities Show at the Iris Theater

After traveling to the top of the Gatlinburg Space Needle, you can go inside Iris Theater to watch mentalist Erik Dobell read your inner thoughts. In the past, Dobell has done shows with Macy’s, the NFL, and had his show in South Korea for a few years. The Impossibilities Show combines magic, mind-reading, and comedy in a show you will have to see to believe.
