Dollywood Opening Day 2024 | BEST Coasters & Eating my way Around the Park!!

[@RyanNodal305]

Dev I don’t see Dollywood working in other states. What makes that park special and gives it that charm is the location it’s in surrounded by the Smoky mountains. Also the fact that it’s near where Dolly grew up is what makes it extra special. It just wouldn’t have that same feel anywhere else.

[@Mychelle1971]

We went to Dollywood in June and LOVED it! We are Disney ppl but said multiple times during our day there, “Disney could learn a few things here.” It was such a clean, friendly, welcoming park. We also liked how, very much like Disney goers, people wear themed, specially designed shirts, and many are Bible themed. That was very refreshing. We appreciate you, Dev. You are my fav vlogger. Thank you for your passion and the way you care about people. It comes through.

[@KashChaos]

Dolly is a treasure, and to be able to actually see her is such a memorable experience!!!

[@karenwade6713]

There's nothing like that mountain hospitality. I was born and raised in those Smoky Mountains about 80 miles away on the NC side. I've only been to Dollywood once. It's time for another trip.

[@Toni-747]

Love Dolly & Dev! Two things that make me happy.😊 Thanks for the tour, Dev!❤

[@Blvckvelma5]

Went to Dollywood with my family for the first time last year and we are still talking about how much we loved it.

[@dorothytokarczyk2644]

We got a gold pass this year thanks to your awesomeness about the park. My hubby and I went yesterday for first time and was truly so wonderful and will we be going for every festival this year.

[@audreymcfarlin6947]

Because of you and Super Enthused my family and I will be going to Dollywood for the first time. I can’t wait. We are going in August 😊

[@DisAmy33]

Dollywood is such a pleasure, like you said everyone is so kind! The atmosphere is just very classic and welcoming, the music that surrounds you is so nice especially when there’s live music playing - the bluegrass, folk, Americana nostalgic vibes are just such a joy! To have a theme park nestled in the middle of beautiful mountains, and Hills is just such a unique experience ♥️👏🌄🎢🎟️

[@janetjones2919]

Dollywood is on my bucket list. Thank you for letting me visit through you.

[@racheleschmidt]

Wow! So cool how you got to see The Queen herself! 🎶👑 Dollywood looks like so much funnnn!! One day🤞🏽

[@robertwerner5236]

I wish i could smell that cinnamon buddy! Looks like you are having a grand time! :)

[@johnzywko5885]

I remember how once upon a time you praised Disney for all its new park openings,dining and rides…Orlando is the theme park capital, and Dollywood would work down there because the weather would keep it open longer throughout the year..beautiful American themed park, it’s so nice to have these family get togethers..

[@terrypeterson7522]

I love Dollywood! It’s such a wonderful day for entire family. Everyone there is so amazingly friendly and kind.

[@lamikahawkins9442]

I'm 50 now, and wooden rollercoasters are one of my most favorite things.😁

[@theresabravo3762]

OMG!! Loved your Dollywood day, Dev!! The food must taste AMAZING!! THANKS for sharing your day! Love to you & Bianca!!👍🥰👏👏👏👏

[@Marr-in-Memphis]

I’m happy to see you so contented in a theme park.

[@williamoleary9330]

Our Family has a fantastic time at Dollywood. The food and atmosphere there is just wonderful

[@billyurkovich2095]

Thank you dev for going to dolly wood … and especially for including the segment with Dolly herself …. Very nice video .. great job

[@magicaladventuresyt]

Love me some Dollywood!! The coasters are so much fun, the food is amazing and of course the area is so scenic. Love heading into the mountains and hiking too

[@kevinswitala6729]

The magic their is stronger than before!🤯

[@kristiemurphy3518]

Dollywood is AWESOME! I come from WVA and I miss those mountains..the last time we were at Dollywood my daughter and I rode Mine Train 8 tomes in a row..we LOVED that ride!!

[@jerri2022]

We go to Dollywood a lot. We have had season passes. We will get up on a Saturday and decide to go to Dollywood for the day. We only live an hour and half away from Dollywood. It is such a fun park. We love Big Bear and Fire Chaser. We are also Disney fans. Glad you had a great time visiting the Smokies of East Tennessee and Dollywood.

[@Trucker2023]

Dollywood is becoming the new Disney without the hype, but in a much better way Dollywood you get a better vibe.. Love the kennel corn and the cinnamon bread yummy yummy..

[@traceyhewison3093]

Love Dollywood, it's my favourite theme park. Have visited 3 times from the UK 🇬🇧

[@chanelbell]

How many days should I commit to it? At least 2? I think 1 day 2 stuff my face & the other for rides? 👀

[@rejoicemusicnet]

You look SO happy! I think Dollywood agrees with you! My daughter and I went to Dollywood for the first time last year, and we absolutely LOVED it. Many times we said that Dollywood is how Disney used to be. It's not a hectic rush to get a FastPass, or stand in lines all day, with way-too-happy music playing everywhere. Like you said, there are parts of Dollywood that are very quiet, very relaxing, the prices are excellent, the quality of the food is amazing, the musical shows are fantastic. I don't plan to go to Disney again anytime soon, and my daughter and I are going again in May and can't wait.

[@a.f.393]

It seems a very authentic old style family park. ❤

[@kendramccuiston9063]

Fun fact: The walkway coming from the grist mill over to the train isn't exactly new. It used to be a cave like area you could walk through that several years ago was also a little store with mining type gems. It was actually the original entrance when the park was Silver Dollar City. 😊

[@l.c.8798]

This place looks so cool!! And Dolly is such a gem 💎 ❤

[@shopper5969]

Happy Wednesday! Dollywood is a exciting place to visit. My family and I was there for Christmas. Enjoy and be safe! Thanks for sharing!

[@ericpatterson5050]

Love Dolly!!!🙌🏿👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🕺🏽😊💜💚🐲

[@tamicook9202]

I can smell that bread all the way here in middle Tennessee! It is our favorite thing at the park as well. The last time we went, we gave our children the option of riding one last ride or getting another loaf of bread and they chose the bread! Absolutely delicious!

[@Monica-zv7bh]

Thank you Dev!! What a beautiful unique place! Deserves to be ONLY there, surrounded by the Smokie mountains!!!

[@LHR428]

Another Amazing vid! Nice way of capturing the vibes of Dollywood!

[@Bmorris1983]

Dev- I’m from there- my first job was Dollywood during the summer when is was 15 16 17- most of my family at some point has worked there. Just a wonderful place. Reds diner was my first job.

[@ChrisW-n4y]

Learned a lot. Corn dogs cooked to order, for one. I was at WDW in 71 and I hope Dollywood never becomes that has become. I sense peak encroachment …. but I can’t wait to return! Great video, sir. .

[@carmenmalave9107]

Hi Dev and really enjoyed the video.I went to the park and the cinnamon bread is the best.Thank you ❤

[@michellejones8464]

I love pigeon forge and Dollywood my favorite place to vacation

[@shortnsweet921]

What an awesome trip! Love that you went and covered passholder day. You really get the essence of what makes Dollywood so special: you don’t get that happy, magical, unique feeling at any other park! And so sweet you got Bianca some of their famous kettle corn! Thanks for another great vlog 🎉

[@Samsowner10]

This looked like a really good time. It’s not somewhere I would have thought to visit. Great vlog.

[@JA-os3dt]

Hi Dev! Thank you for this. My husband & I LOVE Gatlinburg. I don't know if you're still there, but you HAVE to visit "The Island" in Pigeon Forge! It is so fun!

[@AngelaxMiranda]

Went there in March 2023 it was super busy, Dollywood is really growing.

[@jakeclark6615]

Love the video Dev! Incredible work, glad you made it back to Dollywood! Part of the magic of Dollywood is the location, it really makes the experience extra special!

[@fancishmanci]

As many times as I've been to the Smokies, I have never been to Dollywood. Would love to go ASAP! Thanks for taking me there. The mountains have always felt like home to me. I, too, used to live in "flat" Florida, and my first trip to the Smokies was at age 17, and I fell in love! ❤

[@gwendolyncordero2173]

I can holeheartly say that the cinnamon bread is the only reason you need to visit Dollywood. It's soo good! 😋🤤

[@paulah5342]

Can’t wait to return in September. Because of your great reviews we are overjoyed with the Dollywood experience! Thanks Dev!!

[@danmwilson911]

That bread is amazing!

[@candycemonroe7345]

I had cinnamon bread as my birthday cake for my 30th birthday. I got both the apple butter and the frosting. ☺️

[@SavSharron]

Another amazing video Dev! I hope I can get to Dollywood soon and try the cinnamon bread!

[@melanieknight4503]

Your never too old for coasters 😂, wow looks like an awesome time Dev, can't believe you actually got to see Dolly!! ❤❤❤

[@genageeraert8039]

Dolly is a gem.

[@dorisshambley5118]

Awesome Dev, Love Dollywood can't wait to go back!!!❤❤❤

[@dianastahl213]

My daughter and I went to Dollywood for the first time last year, so thanks for the memories! As far as Thunderhead, it's not as bad as many of the other wooden coasters I've been on. I can't do the ones at my local amusement park, but I wanted to try Thunderhead just to say I did it once, and it wasn't nearly as bad. And as for the walkway you questioned if it was new, I can say that it was open in October of last year, because that's where we sat to eat our amazing cinnamon bread! :-)

[@jayneestrycker7453]

Glad you got to see Miss Dolly!😊💖💐

[@drewcorry5056]

Absolutely Outstanding Park. My absolute 2ND park I have ever Ben too.

[@kevinlawrence2651]

Thank you for covering Dollywood, we are visiting in July from the UK 1st ever visit. Given us lots of ideas of how to split our time.

[@SuperGordonfan2448]

When we were there last year, we went one day to just ride all the rides and the second day we walked, sight see'd and ate food

[@leonmalett4189]

Waiting on someone to do a video from here my wife and I are going in September so we'll definitely be watching and taking notes Thank You Dev and Bianca

[@b.a.d.adventures]

We have a few local vloggers that cover quite a bit around the park

[@bt8736]

Coming to Dollywood in June I’m so looking forward to the Park and the mountains…

[@kimberlyschleicher5292]

Hi Dev, I love your great heart, Your so amazing . Thank you for another wonderful video. I have been watching you for so many years, Even before you met Bianca , I enjoy watching you both.

[@belindacunningham7244]

[@fredcarson8546]

Dev, everytime I see you so enthused it makes me want go to where you are/were. Lol

[@lavetaloca7790]

It's a fun and beautiful park but The Smokies are part of the charm. I don't think it would work in Orlando. ... So glad to see L'Rod running! we think that mine coaster is almost as rough as RipRideRocket. ... Big Bear us SO much fun,but our fave is the Eagle. it really is like flying

[@SuperGordonfan2448]

Tennesseeans know no strangers! That's why we are friendly

[@LiamRichie825]

Got to go to Dollywood last year and it was such a great time

[@dienpost2146]

I was there several years ago and it was such a great trip. Well kept park and lots to do. The mountains are exceptionally beautiful to visit too. Great video. ❤

[@victoriaturner9458]

34:48 in Dollywood working in other states…. ! What makes the park special day

[@cadenlasley3289]

Hey, I was down the same day as you. I got to see Dolly and ride the new coaster. I wish I could have seen you and say hey. What is your favorite coaster in the park? Mine is Wild Eagle! I also have a great recipe I seen online for that bread, it’s the best!

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Good morning Dev happy Thursday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter

[@DaffyTaffy93]

[@cassandrahitt8530]

[@stephan5278]

We were there last year and they were still building big bear. Wild Eagle was my favorite though and I love the cinnamon bread.

[@eaglesheat1926]

That bread is the goat. I go once a year and go to the local stuff between Gatlinburg and pigeon forge. That music festival normally in the spring

[@evijade1]

This makes me want to go to Dollywood! Need to get there this summer.

When my husband took our son on mystery mine when we went a few years back and i heard my son screaming from inside the ride and I was standing down the aisleway a little from it. 😂

You think you are feeling old now, wait until you get to our age of 54 and 53, riding coasters like we were 20.

I hear ya! I’m 64 and I’m going to ride until I die! 😄🎢

[@missionpossible9738]

Us too😂

[@terrypeterson7522]

@@60kkm Heck, I’m 74 and still ride roller coasters anytime I can.

[@AngelGranni]

I'm 68 and I still ride almost Everything at DW. Wild Eagle and Big Bear Mountain are my favorite s.

[@sandragrowe3554]

I have totally enjoyed both of your videos re your trip to Dollywood. I must plan a trip there and stay at the new hotel as well. Dev, your steps walked was great in order to help balance those calories a little. LOL I love it!

[@60kkm]

A couple things I found funny that reminded me of our last trip there. Dolly was there the day we were there the last time we went too. And when you were saying it was supposed to rain, it was the weirdest thing the last time we were there. It rained the entire day nonstop but only a slow drip here and there. Like, we didn’t need ponchos or an umbrella. There would just be wet drops on our shirt and just enough to be annoying lol. Then I laughed when you said why doesn’t Bob Iger ride in the parade now and then. Probably because people would pelt him with tomatoes. 🍅 😂

[@DianaPixieDust]

Thanks for doing this video! My friends have a cabin in Pigeon Forge right there next to Dollywood and I've always wondered what it was like inside there. I have to visit! Although I don't like fast roller coasters. 👍

[@Debraage56SINGLEMORGAN]

The roller coaster looks so fun I am 57 I would ride it

[@ericpatterson5050]

OMG the Cinnamon Bread!!!😮😮👁👁👁👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🕺🏽😥👍🏼💚🐲

Dollywood is a bit of fresh air compared to my usual Disney experience. I went there last year when they were tearing down the Dolly Experience area.
