Dollywood's New Entertainment and Upgrades for Spring 2022

Published Apr 29, 2022

Dollywood boasts sparkling new shows, improved season passes, and changes to make your theme park day smoother. Take a look at what Dollywood has in store!

Enjoy Dazzling Entertainments

When a park is named for a music legend, expect world-class shows for all ages. Shows are free with admission, except for special events. See (and hear) them all!

An all-new show, “A Brighter Day,” lifts you up with positive music. Whether you love pop, country, contemporary Christian, or other genres, you’ll find songs to inspire you.

Country-pop musicians The Hall Sisters are artists in residence all spring, bringing stunning voices and incredible instrumentals.

The unique show “Bloom” features acrobats performing 12 feet in the air, on top of bending, poles. It’s like watching giant flowers dance!

Stroll through The Village and listen for the intricate pop harmonies of Dollywood’s new a capella vocal group, The Tones.

“Dolly’s Butterfly Garden” is a magical experience blending Dolly’s songs with dancing, digital butterflies that follow you as you walk through their garden.

Catch the Wild Roots Band playing Smoky Mountains music. Hear the jiving, jumping ‘50s and ‘60s pop of Dreamland Drive-In. Enjoy gospel and country shows, and don’t miss Harmonies of the Heart, where Dolly’s nieces, cousin, and friend sing and tell stories about Dolly herself.

Use New Season Passes

A season pass can be the most cost-effective way to visit Dollywood. The park is changing its season passes to tailor your experience better.

At $214, the Gold Season Pass costs $30 less than last year! This pass includes free parking, four Bring a Friend Free passes, a discount on one-day passes, Saturday early ride times for the pass holder, access to special events, and discounts on dining and shopping. The Silver Season Pass, including two, Bring a Friend passes and a discount on one-day passes, is $159. Both passes give the holder unlimited entries to Dollywood.

Get Around Faster

Changes to how you park and walk at Dollywood make it easier to navigate the park. Wider walkways create more space. A connecting tunnel and some buildings are now gone, to make room for easier flow between attractions. Extra payment booths speed up parking lot entry.
