Dollywood / Pigeon Forge - Dance Tour
Dollywood / Pigeon Forge, TN
Dollywood has long been a symbol of excellence in the theme park industry, offering an unforgettable blend of thrilling attractions, heartfelt storytelling, and authentic Smoky Mountain charm. At both Dollywood Theme Park and Dollywood’s Splash Country, guests are invited to experience the best of life in the Smokies—where rides, slides, music, food, and laughter come together from sunrise to nightfall. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains, every season brings something new to discover, from vibrant spring blooms and summer excitement to the rich colors of fall and the cozy magic of winter festivals.
With more than 40 world-class rides and attractions, Dollywood delivers excitement for every age and interest. From adrenaline-pumping roller coasters to family-friendly adventures, the park is known for its award-winning entertainment, immersive experiences, and some of the most beloved dining in the theme park world. What truly sets Dollywood apart, however, is its unmatched atmosphere—genuine Southern hospitality that makes every guest feel welcomed, valued, and at home.
For groups, the experience extends beyond the parks. Dollywood's DreamMore Resort and Spa offers a warm and welcoming retreat designed for families and travel groups to relax, reconnect, and reflect on their Smoky Mountain adventures. With thoughtful amenities and a focus on shared experiences, it serves as the perfect home base for a memorable performance tour.
Dance groups will also have the exciting opportunity to perform at The Island in Pigeon Forge, stepping onto the stage in front of the iconic multi-million-dollar show fountain. This lively destination brings together entertainment, shopping, dining, and attractions, including the towering Great Smoky Mountain Wheel. It’s an unforgettable setting where dancers can showcase their talent while families enjoy a full vacation experience in one vibrant location.
In addition, students will participate in an exclusive dance workshop at Country Tonite Theatre, where they will learn directly from professional performers.
