Old Timers' Day at Cades Cove Review

Visitors are invited to bring lawn chairs and a picnic along to enjoy Old Timers' Day at Cades Cove. Usually held the third weekend in September at the Cable Mill area of Cades Cove, Old Timers' Day allows former residents of Cades Cove, and their descendants, along with the general public, to reminisce about the old days in the valley. The event usually attracts more than 4,000 people.
