In addition to standard amusement park thrill rides, Dollywood features traditional crafts, food, and music of the Smoky Mountain area. The park hosts a number of concerts and musical events each year, including appearances by Dolly Parton and her family as well as other national and local musical acts.
The theme park is the anchor of Parton's 150-acre Dollywood amusement destination, which also includes the 35-acre sister water park Dollywood's Splash Country, the 20-acre Dollywood's DreamMore Resort and Spa, and the 5-acre Dolly Parton's Stampede Dinner Attraction.
