Dollywood's Summer Celebration Packed With DOLLYWOOD’S SUMMER CELEBRATION PACKED WITH THRILLING NEW ENTERTAINMENT OPTIONS International touring shows, nightly fireworks and extended park hours highlight summer at Dollywood PIGEON FORGE, Tenn. (Monday, June 11, 2018)— Dollywood’s Season of Showstoppers continues with a sensational celebration that provides families more time to enjoy together at the award-winning vacation destination. Dollywood’s Summer Celebration (June 16- Aug. 5) features extended park hours— 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily—as well as a nightly firework spectacular, thrilling new entertainment and the fun of Dollywood after dark! Families have several world-renowned entertainment options to keep them entertained during Dollywood’s Summer Celebration. International touring sensation DRUMLine LIVE visits the park with riveting rhythms, bold beats and ear-grabbing energy. Developed by the consultants of the hit 2002 movie Drumline, the band featured in this exhilarating show creates a synchronized musical masterpiece for guests—it’s more than just the typical halftime performance! DRUMLine LIVE runs in Celebrity Theater June 16- July 4. “Dollywood is the ultimate family theme park and DRUMLine Live is the ultimate family show,” said Don Roberts, CEO and Director of DRUMLine Live. “We promise to offer the same excitement, energy and exhilarating entertainment as any roller coaster in the park. I guarantee you’ve never seen anything like DRUMLine LIVE. We will have you on your feet by halftime. We want to thank Dolly Parton and the team at Dollywood for giving us this wonderful opportunity. iLuminate, finalists on America’s Got Talent in 2011, bring their electrified glow-in-the-dark costumes to DP’s Celebrity Theater to perform dynamic dance routines and illusions to thrill guests. iLuminate performs July 7-21. In addition to their third-place result on AGT, iLuminate has toured the world from Egypt to Malaysia and has appeared on shows like Dancing with the Stars, X-Factor, Good Morning America and Ellen. The group launched in 2009 and patented the mesmerizing technology used in their shows. They’ve performed alongside stars like Christina Aguilera, The Black Eyed Peas, David Guetta and more, and are excited to bring their talent to Dollywood. “iLuminate is very excited and honored to bring our unique dance performance technology to Dollywood this July,” said Miral Kotb, iLuminate creator. “We will be featuring new light suits and dances that have never been seen before, while bringing back some audience favorites. Get ready for energetic and mesmerizing performances that you and your family will remember for years to come!” Speed painter Ricardo Barazza astonishes Dollywood guests during his show PaintJam, an innovative and mesmerizing show which runs the entirety of Summer Celebration. Barazza creates stunning works of art on a spinning 360-degree canvas, while he dances and moves throughout the performance. A new evening show called Nighttime Experience gives guests reason to rock well in to the night. Some of Dollywood's best daytime performers offer a fresh new show highlighted by their interpretations of today's hottest hits! Guests shouldn’t miss these 13 singer/dancers and five live musicians as they put on a concert for the ages! The show takes place July 25- Aug. 8. Every evening during Summer Celebration ends with Dolly’s Nights of Many Colors, a thrilling fireworks extravaganza synchronized to music. It’s story time again as The Little Engine Playhouse showcases three favorite books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, including Coat of Many Colors, based on Parton’s newest children’s book. Coat of Many Colors and Pretend, by Jennifer Plecas, feature sing-along songs that kids of all ages will enjoy. Everyone’s favorite, The Little Engine That Could, comes to the stage with a delightful reminder of what can happen with just a little bit of determination. While Dollywood guests have an amazing amount of entertainment options to enjoy during their visit, they also can experience the park’s award-winning rides in a completely different environment. Once the sun sets, Dollywood’s trademark attractions, like Wild Eagle, Lightning Rod and Thunderhead, provide a unique experience for those who climb aboard. These rides thrill guests who race through the summer night with no idea which way the track will turn next! A range of tasty new dining options also highlight Dollywood’s Summer Celebration including savory jambalaya with shrimp and andouille sausage, chicken and beef skewers over rice pilaf and flavorful street tacos. Festival-exclusive dessert offerings include blackberry cobbler, churros and strawberries and cream.

  • Tennessee Pressedienst
    TENNESSEE TOURISM State of Tennessee Pressedienst: 13. Januar 2016 Zum Saisonbeginn des Themenparks Dollywood am 19. März Schnellste Holzachterbahn vor dem Start Mit der weltweit schnellsten Holzachterbahn als Neuigkeit startet Dolly Partons Themenpark Dollywood in Tennessee am 19. März in die neue Saison. Das Spitzentempo von 117 Stundenkilometern macht „Lightning Rod“ zur schnellsten Holzachterbahn der Welt. Erstmals beschleunigt ein Katapult. Bisher fuhren auf Holzgerüsten nur von Ketten emporgezogene Züge. Design und Name des 12teiligen Zuges für insgesamt 24 Passagiere sollen an getunte, bunte Autos aus den 1950er-Jahren erinnern, erklärte der Country-Musik- und Filmstar Dolly Parton. Die Namenspatronin und Miteigentümerin des Themenparks am Rande des Ferienorts Pigeon Forge im Osten des Bundestaats Tennessee ist in der Nachbargemeinde Sevierville aufgewachsen. Das Katapult schießt den Zug mit dann schon 72 Stundenkilometern 20 Stockwerke hoch, um dann rund 50 Meter in die Tiefe zu rasen – zum ersten adrenalinbringenden „Drop“ auf der 1,16 Kilometer langen Fahrt. Zusammengerechnet verspricht der drei Minuten und 12 Sekunden dauernde Ritt rund 20 Sekunden „Airtime“ – das an Schwerelosigkeit grenzende Erlebnis. Der 22 Millionen Dollar teure Neubau ist die größte Einzelinvestition in der Geschichte des Themenparks. Dollywoods Erfolgsrezept heißt: Innovation. 2012 ging mit Wild Eagle die erste Wing-Achterbahn in den USA an den Start: ein 20 Millionen-Dollar-Ride, bei dem die Sitze unter den Flügeln stilisierter Adler hängen. Der angrenzende Wasserpark Splash Country legte 2013 nach mit RiverRush, Tennessees erster und einziger Wasserachterbahn. 2014 machte der Fire Chaser Express als erste „Familienachterbahn“ mit Rückwärtsgang Schlagzeilen. Thunderhead zählt seit Jahren zu den fünf besten Holzachterbahnen der Welt, und weitere Bahnen wie Mystery Mine, ___________________________________________________________________________________ Tennessee Tourism State of Tennessee Department of Tourist Development Horstheider Weg 106a 33613 Bielefeld Deutschland Tel.
