Back in January, I had the unique opportunity to chat with Brooke East, a Dollywood performer, stage manager and entertainment host who oversaw a brand-new character callback during the annual audition process. During our time together, Brooke let me know that she was really looking for fresh new talent for the different festivals that [...]
You may have heard of Gazillion Bubble Show Aurora that’s on stage at Dollywood now through Aug. 7. I had the coolest experience with this show! My niece, Kedaja, and I participated in a Q&A with the host, Deni Yang. This opportunity is a Golden Event, so it’s open to all Dollywood Gold and [...]
I have been a self-proclaimed Dollywood Entertainment fanatic since I was a little girl. I still remember the excitement I felt way, way (way) back in 1992 when I first sat down in Showstreet Palace Theater to watch “Fire on The Mountain” when the Showstreet area first opened.

During my first year of being a Dollywood Season Passholder, I made some incorrect assumptions.

Every family has their traditions that are part of their visit to Dollywood’s Smoky Mountain Christmas. For some, you can’t leave the park without visiting Santa or riding the Dollywood Express while singing Christmas carols on Klondike Katie. For some families, like my own, their Christmas tradition is making sure to catch a showing [...]

This particular festival has everything you would expect when combining the fun of Dollywood and Christmas: delicious seasonal treats, arrays of Christmas lighting and, most of all, award-winning shows. Speaking of shows, if you want to catch them [...]
