THE ENTERTAINMENT CAPITAL OF THE SMOKIES

In 1986, Dollywood added a new dimension to the tourist appeal in Sevier County, "home" to Dolly Parton, and now hosts millions of tourists each year.

This season opened with the new addition "Adventures in Imagination" for the dreamer in all of us.  Using the theme of a rainbow as a yellow brick road, visitors embark on a journey of discovery.  Follow the rainbow and tour Dolly's new museum "Chasing Rainbows", dedicated to her life.   Using interactive technology, you can dream your dreams as Dolly shares how the simplest things in life can be opportunities.

As Dolly herself says, "We might not have had much money growing up, but we were rich in what was really important, and that's why I want Dollywood to be full of those same treasures - love, family, laughter, adventure, dreams, and good old-fashioned red, white, and blue fun."  Visit Dollywood and let your imagination take over.

Other things to enjoy at Dollywood include:

Thrilling Rides - from a 70mph triple loop coaster to a 50mph free fall over a mountain waterfall - all rides are full of family fun and excitement.

Spectacular Shows from the hot sounds of the contemporary country to the fabulous 50's rock 'n' roll and traditional gospel harmonies - musical entertainment for everyone.

Acres of Attractions - Explore unique one-of-a kind attractions you'll not find anywhere else such as Dreamland Forest, a special place where kids run the fun.

Dozens of Master Craftsmen - Historic American traditions are honored and demonstrated with dozens of folklore showcases including glassblowing, blacksmithing, wagon making and many more!
