The Collingsworth Family is bringing their own Orchestra to back them up for this huge Christmas Spectacular Concert on Monday night.
This family sings to packed houses all year long, but when it comes to their Christmas performance……. there is a waiting list at the Performing Arts Theaters.
Kim Collingsworth is known for her outstanding gift of worship at the keys of a grand piano. Once you combine the Collingsworth Family with Kim at the grand piano with the live orchestra, you have the makings for one amazing night.
The Voices of Lee are the world-renowned acapella choir from Lee University.
Their Christmas presentation with their crystal clear high soprano voices backed by the sound of their smooth low bass is the stuff of which Christmas memories are made.
This is some music from our youth that you will love. You will not soon forget their amazing performance.
Triumphant Quartet has been one of the most honored quartets in Southern Gospel Music.
You will soon learn the reason they have so many #1 Hits. They have an incredible blend. They have a great stage presence.
They are great guys, but the real reason is because their songs must bring Glory and Honor to the God they serve. You’re gonna’ love them!!
The Guardian Quartet with three Dove Award nominations, multiple #1 songs and the appreciation of Southern Gospel music lovers all over the nation will win your hearts as soon as they start singing.
Pat Barker is known for his legendary bass voice. I know we think of a little baby at Christmas, but just wait till you hear them sing “How Big is Our God!”
The Chuck Wagon Gang will return us to an old fashion Christmas time when families would sit around the radio in the living room and listen to live Christmas music.
Don’t you just wish the times were still that simple today? Ah yes, and you may have a desire on the way home to drop by the grocery and pick up a bag of Martha White Self Rising Flour.
Buddy Mullins is the outstanding vocal artist who was inducted into the Gospel Music Association’s Hall of Fame for his time singing with the Grammy and Dove Award winning Gaither Vocal Band.

This man can also make a piano talk. He is so talented on the stage and you’ll want us to get him back ASAP.
The best part is….. he’s funny without using bad language or telling ugly stories. So strap your seat belts on and get ready to laugh!!!
As a Southern Baptist Pastor, I was always looking for someplace to take my people where I knew they would be entertained, laugh out loud and NOT be embarrassed by the shows. I always wanted to get a good return for money spent. I found some great places, but I also wanted a place that had a spiritual impact as well. So I decided to create the very best value possible with as much included as possible.
I don’t know where you can get a deal like this: four nights lodging, seven meals, eight Southern Gospel concerts, two comedians, Great Peaching, three of the best theaters shows, and Dollywood for such an incredible price. I’ve tried to do all the planning so all you have to do is gather your group and bring them to Pigeon Forge. I know you and your group will enjoy this event!
