The 2022 Smoky Mountain Summer Celebration will take place from June 18th – August 7th and Dollywood is bringing its A GAME! The park will be set up to mimic those great summer road trips we all remember from childhood! 

Guests will notice numerous “ROADSIDE ATTRACTIONS” around the park that include fun photo ops with art installations, food, water features, foam parties, and more!

Colorful art installations will be featured throughout including a special summer Dollywood entrance sign, a kite sky, oodles of POOL noodles, and a color spinning top interactive art exhibit in Wildwood Grove!

NEW entertainment this year includes performances by gardeners that randomly appear throughout the day and play music on trash cans to a roaming troupe that literally sings in the rain! Also be sure to check out the retro-tunes show DREAMLAND DRIVE IN in the Pines Theatre in Jukebox Junction and the outdoor stages will come alive with summer inspired music all around the park to create the perfect playlist!
