“Gatlinburg is one of my all-time favorite places,” said Blake. “This part of the country is full of people who love good food, great music, family and most importantly, a good time. That’s what Ole Red is all about, and I can’t wait to give my fans another place to have fun in Gatlinburg.”

Blake and Ryman Hospitality Properties have already opened one Ole Red location in Tishomingo, Okla., in September 2017, with plans to open Ole Red Nashville in May 2018.

Ole Red Gatlinburg will be located at 511 Parkway, the main drive into town from Pigeon Forge.
