About Dollywood

A world-famous theme park featuring thrilling roller coasters, live entertainment, craft demonstrations, and Southern hospitality in the heart of the Smokies.

New for 2026: NightFlight Expedition opened at Dollywood on Aug. 19, 2026. Housed in a 44,000-square-foot building in the Wildwood Grove area, the ride lasts more than five minutes and combines four experiences in one: an immersive night flight over the Smoky Mountains, a whitewater rafting adventure with more than a half-million gallons of water, an indoor roller coaster, and a boat ride on a shimmering lake.
