Biblical Times Dinner Theater in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee presents immersive live productions paired with on-site museum exhibits. The venue combines theatrical dinner shows, holographic musical storytelling, and museum galleries to create multi-sensory experiences focused on biblical themes. Performances include staged musicals such as “Daniel: A Message That Transcends Time,” seasonal productions like the 2025 Christmas show “Peace On Earth: The Shepherds Rejoice! Ft. King & Co. Music,” and specialty engagements such as Daniel with Austin and Leb (10/11–10/18), which pairs comedy with the holographic musical presentation.
Museum offerings are housed under The Museums at Biblical Times and feature three distinct galleries: the Shroud Museum (exploring the Shroud of Turin), Christus Gardens Encore (a presentation focused on the life of Christ), and the Southern Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Dining during performances includes themed meal options referenced in show descriptions, such as a Baked Potato Bar offered during select 2025 performances.
The venue programs live musical concerts alongside theatrical storytelling, with named performers or groups participating in specific seasons (for 2025, TFM Worship and King & Co. Music are featured in different shows). Biblical Times Dinner Theater operates as a combined theater and museum attraction in the Pigeon Forge area of the Smoky Mountains, appealing to visitors seeking faith-based entertainment, live music, and curated museum exhibits.
