Wildflower Pilgrimage 2027: The Smokies Event That Sells Out in a Weekend
The Spring Wildflower Pilgrimage has been running in Great Smoky Mountains National Park since 1950 — a four-day nonprofit event with over 200 professionally guided walks, hikes, seminars, and programs exploring the park's spring bloom. The 2027 edition will be the 77th annual, expected in late April. Registration opens in late January or February and sells out within days. Here's what to know, how to get in, and what to do if you miss the window.
