Come experience a rocking worship experience Dollywood-style as we Rock the Smokies during the theme park’s newest Christian Music Festival, featuring Third Day and For King & Country. More artists will be announced soon! Dollywood is partnering with Premier Festivals to produce a powerful Christian rock experience in Dollywood’s Celebrity Theater. The day-long celebration provides time for both thrill rides and a Christian Festival for one great price.
Organizers anticipate Rock the Smokies will be an energizing event for festival-goers, student ministries and families to spiritually reconnect and recharge as the summer comes to a close. Rock the Smokies is set for Labor Day Weekend: Saturday, Sept. 5, 2015. For a complete lineup of festival performances, announcement of artists and show times, please visit rockthesmokies.com.
Admission to Dollywood, along with a reserved festival ticket is included with purchase of a Rock the Smokies ticket. Additional Christian Artists will be performing to the general public throughout the park. Discount prices are available for groups and those who purchase tickets early. There will even be VIP packages available to meet the band and take pictures. Tickets for Rock the Smokies go on sale in February.
