Dollywood has been awarded for hosting the best Christmas festival in the nation year-after-year. One visit to their incredible Smoky Mountain Christmas festival reveals why! The twinkle of millions of lights, gorgeous decorations, amazing shows, areas for children, etc all work together to provide a magical holiday experience that cannot be found anywhere else in the nation. In 2016, the Smoky Mountain Christmas festival at Dollywood is better than ever with the addition of the brand new Parade of Many Colors!
Dollywood’s new Parade of Many Colors premiered on November 16th and takes place nightly beginning at 8 p.m. until January 1 when the Smoky Mountain Christmas festival at Dollywood ends.. Dollywood states that the new parade features “vibrant floats, interactive characters and a number of other surprises sure to inspire guests with its heart-warming message.” Dollywood has invested $2.5 million into this new parade to ensure that it will be an incredible addition to the popular Christmas festival.
Dolly Parton herself created the parade to share the Smoky Mountain values and principles she and her family have held onto in their lives. The Parade of Many Colors showcases faith, fun, and harmony…making it a perfect experience for the entire family.
