Maggie Valley is a place where mountain traditions of days-gone-by come alive, where good old-fashioned Southern Appalachian music and dance are still performed. Five-time world champion banjo-picker Raymond Fairchild's Maggie Valley Opry House is the scene of some of the greatest bluegrass music you'll hear in your lifetime. The Stompin' Ground known as "the clogging capital of the world," hosts world-class mountain cloggers, square-dancers and musicians.
Carolina Nights, a 340 seat music theater serving up tasty portions of entertainment and food in a family-friendly environment, blends country-and-western music with old-time rock 'n' roll, gospel and bluegrass. Applalachian heritage also can be found throughout Maggie's shops and galleries, full of unique, handmade crafts created by mountain artists carrying on traditions that have been a part of this region since the 1700s. Take a little of our mountain heritage home with you.
