Ponies In The Smokies Night Life

From unofficial pop up events to the official get togethers, the night life is a big part of Ponies In The Smokies.

Officially, we gather Monday night “down under” at Quaker Steak & Lube beside the #PITS wall for a low key, “welcome to town” get together. Join us as we “Light The Still” and get things kicked off for the week! To be honest, its probably the #PITS Crews favorite event of the week. It gives us a chance to check out some cars and mingle on a more personal level. We start brewing at 5pm!

Junction 35 Spirits, Kitchen & Bar and Distillery will once again play host for our Shine Run Party on Thursday from 5-9pm. Open to everyone, but for those with completed Shine Run Cards the ClearShine Products team will be onsite with a table at Junction 35 to collect them. While you’re there, pony up at the bar or grab a booth for some excellent food and drink specials(a PITS Crew favorite) and step over the Distillery side of the bar and have a moonshine tasting while checking out their retail section.

NEW FOR 2025 – The Shine Run Party is being hosted by Rock’n The Smokies! Whether you have a Shine Run Card to turn in or not, come to Junction 35 and the Mountain Mile for the largest cruise in of the week!

Also, Junction 35 is located within The Mountain Mile which is now loaded with several food, retail and recreation options to explore. We appreciate how Junction 35 and The Mountain Mile welcomes us back each year and we hope you enjoy the venue as much as we do!
