Anakeesta, in Gatlinburg, is showing appreciation for the locals this May and certain people in East TN will be able to enjoy the park at a low price.
From May 1-8 people who live or work in Blount, Sevier, or Jefferson County can show their ID [with address] or a paystub and enter Anakeesta for only $5.
A portion of the proceeds will go towards Friends of the Smokies, which helps upkeep and preserve the Great Smokey Mountains National Park.
According to Anakeesta’s website, anyone who visits during that week
…will be able to enjoy thousands of blooming flowers, seasonal food and beverage offerings as well as several new attractions…”
