Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Some say it was blown there from the Bermuda Triangle by a tornado when the wacky science experiments going on inside the monumental building got out of hand, unleashing a powerful wind that carried the building all the way to Pigeon Forge. However the building got here, one thing is sure: Pigeon Forge is lucky to have the WonderWorks! At the WonderWorks, visitors to Pigeon Forge can try out the equipment in the lab. Flight simulators, hurricane simulators, and earthquake simulators are some highlights. For the daring, a bed of nails awaits adventurous nappers. The starry-eyed can step into a space suit for a photo opportunity, while the strong-willed can try the “extreme 360” bicycle that travels upside down. The 55,000 square foot interactive exhibit features all of this and more. Based on a popular Orlando, Florida attraction, this larger and brand new Pigeon Forge WonderWorks features exhibits similar to those found in Orlando, like virtual sports, a dragster simulation, and a “WonderWall” that makes copies of anything pressed into it! The Pigeon Forge WonderWorks’ official Grand Opening takes place later this month, to be followed by the opening of the 300 seat dinner theater later in the summer. See a video of the WonderWorks.
