Dollywood Celebrates 25th Anniversary in 2010
Dollywood marks its 25th Anniversary in 2010 and this Pigeon Forge, Tennessee theme park plans on celebrating with all-new attractions, new shows and a promotion that encourages “Celebrate the Dreamer in You.”Dollywood’s season begins on March 27 with the annual Festival of Nations. This year’s event includes a new show, Drum, which features a Nova Scotia based group of 20 musicians, dancers, drummers and singers from four main cultures – Aboriginal, African, Celtic & Acadian for a 45-minute stage show that is combines the four cultures for an unforgettable production. Invaders, a Caribbean steel drum show, is also new to Festival of Nations, as is Jallmay, a troupe of musicians and dancers from Peru.
Adventure Mountain is Dollywood’s new attraction. It features two acres of obstacle courses, with 100 different obstacles and four different courses. The courses range in difficulty and are equipped with swinging beams, flying islands, suspension bridges and tire traps. Adventure Mountains will also be home to Camp Teachittoomee, a ground based experience for little ones.
Dollywood Splash Country, opening on May 22, also has a new attraction – Slick Rock Racer. The 300-foot, multilane attraction will offer a unique experience to Splash Country guests, as the park does not currently offer any slide rides of this nature. Riders will travel down the chutes on their bellies while laying head first on a foam mat. The slide will start with an initial dip to give speed and will include several more bumps throughout the course to allow for additional momentum.
