Dollywood was excited to announce Adventure Mountain for 2009   

Although Dollywood was excited to announce Adventure Mountain for 2009, the ongoing downturn in the economy has created unpredicted changes in cost and availability of basic materials like steel and concrete used to build the new attraction.  Therefore, Dollywood is choosing to take a proactive step and delay the Adventure Mountain project.

Adventure Mountain is yet another one-of-a-kind attraction that sets a new standard in the industry.  Our guests have come to expect and appreciate this standard of excellence from our most recent rides such as Mystery Mine, River Battle and Thunderhead.  By delaying the Adventure Mountain project, we can ensure that it too will live up to the quality we want our guests to experience.

Instead, our energy in 2009 will focus on our award-winning reputation for stellar Festivals and Entertainment.  This will be our largest entertainment year ever!  During Festival of Nations, we are adding Imagine' by Le Grande Cirque - an incredible cirque show produced just for Dollywood.  To celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Dollywood is producing our most elaborate show ever, Sha-Kon-O-Hey! It is a Smoky Mountain story for which Dolly has written all the music! Overall, we plan to continue delivering a world-class adventure for families with the famous hospitality our hosts provide every day.
