What a MADHOUSE! We bought the premium tickets online, never offered the VIP. We came here at 7pm, because the email said regular tickets come 730, VIP comes at 7. Unsure we came at 7 they said pick tickets up 720, we returned 2 lines, the only sign saying prepaid tickets proceed through scanners. Went through scanner, nope VIPs only. The security directed us to the long line that wraps half around the building. It's frustrating and we weren't the only ones to experience this. Once in line, you proceed through the metal detector, past security, there is a booth, where the employees ask your name. Once you provide it, they hand you tickets, and you proceed to the photo area. The staff takes your photos to sell to you later during the show. Before getting to the show and seating, you stay in an area where there is a 3 person band playing, and signing.They do country, as well as some classic rock. The band themselves were very good, and got the crowd to participate in their show, calling out where they are from, and being overall interactive. While in the area, they sell refreshments, alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages, popcorn, glasses and so on. At approximately 820pm, the staff directs you upstairs to proceed through the red curtains into the seating. If you buy regular tickets your in rows 4+ going up. These seats provide an overall better view of the arena, it's not so high you can't see, maybe 10 rows to top? The premium seats are first 3 rows, if you have small children who want to be more interactive in the show and have a better view I would recommend these seats. Our waiter Tim, was a great guy, funny, and attentive to needs. The dinner, was served, starting with a roll, vegetable soup. Next came the Cornish game hen, then mashed potatoes, corn on cob and brisket. Overall the food was good, and lots of it! You get your own mini rotisserie chicken, and 1 scoop of each of the other. Before the show starts you pick your desert, our options were apple crisp, or chocolate coconut cake. We got the crips, which came to us hot, and delicious. You can order drinks from the scan code at the table, or the waiter will come by pre show and ask what you would like to drink. Options were coke products, tea (sweet and unsweetened) lemonade, and water. Moving into the show, so first and foremost, i haven't been to a lot of dinner shows. This one however was great, they had horsemanship, races, competitions and more. Once the show begins the show master, begins by amping up the crowd, 1 side is the north, 1 side the south, they have friendly competitions for both sides during the show. They have you cheer on your team, as they race around obstacles, pick up flags and return the competing against the other side. They also do pig races, where you cheer on the north or south, overall I believe there is 10-11 completions, all fun, and gets you amped up. During the competitions they will bring out people from the crowd (2-3 times) and have them participate in the games, and also a little wagon magic tricks. Besides the completion thy putting shows such as riding horses through and around obstacles, a butterfly show (horses with wings, lights and people acting as butterfly's). They also have some aerial displays and parts of the show. Overall a fun experience minus the mass confusion at the beginning, would recommend going especially if you have children. You won't leave hungry, the food I would say is worth it, the show is worth seeing. Things worth noting, it is a little expensive, tickets for 2 can be north of $100, the drinks, for 2 plastic mason jar alcohol drinks with tip $50+. Be prepared to spend a little. 2 show times, 6 pm, and 830pm. read more

Doc made reservations for the 6 pm VIP show. Dolly is no where to be seen here, at least not tonight. Nevertheless there is much to see in the 1-1/2 hour dinner entertainment. I don't want to give away all the acts but be on the lookout for sweet Buttercup and the races by both humans and animals. The dinner was plentiful: creamy soup, biscuit, Cornish hen, pulled pork, mashed potato, corn on the cob and refills of sweet tea, water or soft drink. You must show your id to purchase alcohol. You have a choice of coconut chocolate cake or apple turnover. You can purchase a souvenir photo for $35. They have a gift shop. The servers work super hard carrying trays of food, serving you and refilling drinks. You are deemed either North or South based on where you are sitting around the arena. The competition lasts pretty much throughout the show. If you purchased VIP tickets you can pet one of the performing horses after the show. read more

First time!! We took VIP TICKETS TO BE FRONT ROW .. early entrance.. meet and greet!!! Nice and well worth the price for a first time. Show was amazing we get flags to wave for the North or south as there is competitions and the bring audience in by their choosing on this!!! The chicken race with the kids was hysterical Food was great.. biscuit, Cornish hen, pulled pork, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes.. and served hot!! AMAZING!! We have to go back to get the spice used on the chicken and pork ( gift shop)!!!!!! Dessert was a chocolate coconut cake .. five stars or a hit apple turnover!!! WOW IS ALL I CAN SAY.. thumbs up on service.. show and food. Bar drinks available to order at the bar or QR CODE... as seated.

Our last minute trip to Dolly's Stampede was a success. We called and ended up getting a better offer on tickets with our military discount. The woman who set us up was very friendly. If you arrive early there is a "Pre-Show" where you can buy drinks, play checkers, and watch a trio sing some of Dollys Classics. As they usher you in they take a photo of the family where they'll try to sell to you later on during the show. We came during Christmas time so we watched their Christmas show. The show itself has a ton of different acts. From horse shows to little kids selected from the crowds to chase chickens in a chicken chase race. They had funny acts and then beautiful act. It was a good mixture. The food was good, in the beginning they ask which dessert you'd like. We tried both between my little and I. A Coconut Chocolate cake and Apple Turn over. I personally preferred the apple turn over. Then dinner was a set (They have a vegetarian option to choose from). Soup and biscuit to start, a tiny whole chicken, pulled pork, mash potato's, and corn. Nothing was served together but one after another as they plated. The biscuit and apple turn over were my favorite, the chicken was good but the rest was just ok. The truly only negative I experience (which I did expect) was the smell. It's not strong but it's apparent. They keep the arena dust free by spraying the grounds with mist. Then you are sorta stuck in your seat the whole show unless you're on the end seat or climb out from the backside of the seat. Not impossible but truly not possible for those who have physical restrictions. In the end they allow patrons to come down, meet the riders and pet the horses. My little really liked that. The horse we met was named Rooster, he was a pretty & sweet boy. I believe his rider said about 8 years old. As you leave the facility, there is a store where you can buy merchandise, you can also go into the store without seeing the actual show. As it works as a standalone. It was a good time, my family laughed, oooh & awed, and enjoyed the show. read more

I can remember going to the Dolly's Dixie Stampede in Myrtle Beach, SC when I was growing up as a kid and had many fond memories attached to the dinner theater attraction. Which is why when I found myself in Pigeon Forge recently, there was no way I was going to miss a visit to Dolly's Stampede. I wanted to love the experience but looking at the show through adult eyes, I struggled to do so. For starters, let me highlight the good. I give the service 5 stars. Our server was awesome and worked his butt off for our section with a smile on his face at all times. Also, the food is a solid 4 stars. I wish there had been silverware (but eating with your hands is part of the experience). The biscuit and yummy vegetable soup were my favorites, but you definitely won't leave hungry. I even debated purchasing the soup mix in the gift shop after the fact (you conveniently HAVE to walk through the gift shop to exit after the show). I also ordered a cocktail during the pre-show entertainment segment (I wanted that souvenir boot camp) and it was a super yummy and dangerous concoction. The actual show is where I give it 3 stars. The whole narrative of the show was all over the place. One second we're rooting for the North or South and then the next we're watching a butterfly segment . Not to mention, it was sadly obvious that many of the competitions were rigged and that "audience members" randomly selected to participate in competitions were plants from the cast. I love Dolly so I'm sure i'll go back if the opportunity arises but the show needs some work. read more

What do you get when you mix horse tricks, Southern charm, and a whole lotta food? A rootin'-tootin' good time at Dolly Parton's Stampede! From the moment we sat down, it was clear this wasn't your average dinner show. The lights dimmed, the horses galloped, and my inner cowboy was thriving. The show was a thrilling spectacle of acrobatics, comedy, patriotism, and powerful horse riding that had us cheering like we were at the Kentucky Derby. Now about that food... you better come hungry! They served up a plate so Southern it practically sang a country song--roasted chicken, buttery biscuit, creamy soup, corn on the cob, and a surprise apple turnover at the end that felt like a hug from Dolly herself. The plate in the photo may not scream five-star cuisine, but trust me--what it lacks in flair, it makes up for in flavor and pure comfort. It's a little pricey, sure, but for a night packed with laughs, claps, and horse-powered entertainment, it's totally worth it. Don't forget to holler and root for your side during the show! Final verdict: 5 stars for fun, flavor, and full-on Dolly magic! read more

The Dolly Stampede show was awsome! Before being seated, there's a preview of a singing act. Once seated- you're served your preference of drink, and then the meals are brought out. Everyone is served the same, which includes a biscuit, soup, whole Cornish hen, potatoes, vegetables, and dessert. I asked for a vegan meal, which was surprisingly delicious. While eating the Christmas themed show was performed. The night was beautiful and service was great! read more

A good take, with a patriotic ending. Fun food service situation, with staff sprinting around on a track in front of we diners. Little kids chasing ducks is fun, as is racing miniature horses who nip at each other. The disappearing girl trick was done right in front of me and I dont know how they did it. The gift shop has surprisingly few shirt designs, based on what I expected to see after the show. read more

I had to come and check this show out while I was here. WHY? BECAUSE, DOLLY! Sorry, but I LOVED IT. Were some areas cheesy, yes. But, I enjoyed every moment. The show was great and entertaining. They give you more than enough southern food. (A whole a** chicken, actually) Good! The food is not spectacular, but it's solid. Does the carpets and seats need some updates? Yes. I think I would like to see some renovations here for the price you pay to see dinner and a show can be pricey. The drinks aren't the greatest and could see a revamp to their menu as well. Altogether, I would say a visit is worth it, but the facility does need some new renovations. read more

This review is for the Christmas Show. I was so excited to see this in person, and it was my first Stampede. Beware I do have some spoilers here: Everything in the performance was lacking, I expected everything the way Dolly is - lots of rhinestones and glitter and glitz - and a high performance standard . There was none of that: the live singer during the show was not great, the costumes kind of drab, and a lack of any pomp and circumstance. We noticed immediately that sound quality was lacking so even if there was a nice Christmas song it didn't fill your spirit. The horses are paraded and do some formations but that gets old really quick. You won't see any elegant trotting. They added in some old style redneck comedy that I found particularly outdated. There is some trick riding but other than a fire hoop there was also nothing amazing. There was a barrel race of sorts and if you've been to the rodeo you would think that these horse were in slow-motion. But noticeably, they really only half-committed any of the horse activities into the holiday theme, other than a them being in red and green. There was a Toyland part of the show that was particularly creepy. Using blacklight as a main effect is usually reserved for haunted houses, but somehow someone deemed this appropriate to make fluorescent dolls come to life in a very scary way. The first half of the show there was not much genuine applause or excitement. It was pretty palpable and everyone just focused on the food while glancing up occasionally at the performances. The nativity scene was the redeeming part of the show. Finally you would get a few reactions from the crowd and a variety of animals and some nice elements. It was done very well and I won't spoil it. The end of the show went completely flat with another emergence of the redneck comedian in a chicken outfit. I thought something fun was about to ensue but nothing happened at all. It was just filler . The show then ends with Santa on a sleigh arriving and then it's over. There wasn't much Christmas magic captured in it. The food was pretty good and it was an incredible amount to eat. We felt bad leaving half of our food on the plate. After our plates were removed, a server came by with a to-go bag as if we didn't already clear the plates. I was so confused. For the price tag we paid, this was just a waste of money. Don't buy a VIP ticket - you can see the show at any viewpoint just as easily and no matter what you will be crammed shoulder to shoulder in uncomfortable bench seating. read more

Over Simulation... LOVE IT wouldn't recommend so I can buy more tickets and would buy a Buttercup In all seriousness this was AMAZING.

Dolly Parton's Stampede - The Gift Shop - Performing Arts Near Me - Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Am I the only one who thought it was just ok? It's a show about the north and the south. Multiple tricks and performances that guide the audience to yell and scream for their team. The teams are divided by which section you sit in. The food was not good. Everything was cooked just fine but the mashed potatoes tasted like they added cinnamon to it, and the rotisserie chicken had a lot of paprika on it. I did get a gf meal. That meal can with no soup, an udi roll and canned fruit, rotisserie chicken, corn, pork, and an udi cookie for dessert. They say to show up an hour early to get your ticket, watch a pre show of musicians, grab a drink and then sit down. The show was about an hour and a half. Glad to have experienced it. They have horses, pigs, chicken, buffalo, doves, long horns, mini pony's.... Am I missing other animals? read more

It pains me to give this 3 stars as I love Dolly and I love kitsch, but this just didn't hit for me. For context, I've been to Medieval Times, Pirates Voyage, Hatfield and McCoy's, and various other dinner shows in this area and Myrtle Beach. This had one of the most boring themes but some of the better food. It was vaguely disorganized and took a long time to get in. Regarding food, there was a ton of food and it was all at least average. Everyone really liked the biscuits. Our soft drinks stayed full. It was not amazing but it was fine. Certainly better than the terrible food at the Lumberjack Feud. The entertainment started strong with a great pre show band, although finding a seat was difficult. The core show, we loved the horseback rider through the ring of fire and the kids adored the butterflies. Otherwise it was just fine. Kind of more on par with a small town fair vs the quality you would expect for the price. Lots of livestock races, a so so comedian, the singing was meh. It was fine. But I think other shows are a lot better and I thought this would be top tier. read more

Southern comfort with a side of nostalgia--worth a visit, with a few caveats. This is definitely an iconic spot in Pigeon Forge, and we gave it a shot because we love Dolly. The overall vibe leaned conservative, which wasn't really our style, but we appreciated the effort to create a lively, family-friendly atmosphere. The food was genuinely good--hearty and comforting, like something your grandma might make. Even the vegetarian meal was flavorful and satisfying, which isn't always a given at themed dinner shows. Accessibility was handled thoughtfully. Staff helped us navigate with a wheelchair, and they were kind throughout. That said, the wait for the elevator was long, which made things a bit tricky and could be improved. We're glad we experienced it once. If you're a Dolly fan or just curious about Southern-style dinner theater, it's worth checking out. Just know what kind of vibe you're walking into. read more

Growing up this dinner show was one of three attractions that was never missed on our near annually holiday trip to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, TN. Am I really a fan as a grown adult to be watching a story about the Civil War--not really. This visit though, we came to enjoy the Christmas Show, which was quite enjoyable--North Pole vs South Pole, smart! Entertainment was great and not overtly religious; we felt comfortable as non-religious folk (my husband and I, that is). I can say with pure confidence, this place has barely been touched since my frequent visits in the 90s and early 2000s. The waiting 'corral' and dining area both could use some 21st Century TLC. The vibes were very drab and gloomy-should feel majestic! After riding around for a while to find parking, we aimlessly walked to what seemed like a ticket line but was the queue-very confusing and quite the hazard with the departing diners from the earlier show. The queue and parking lot situation needs to be handled. No directions in tickets, email, or signage--anything would be something. Service seemed exhausted and unenthused to even be present. Being a frequent visitor of other Dolly attractions, this isn't normal. I did leave a comment on the requested card before departing. The food was the key component of the nostalgic euphoria. Everything was great from the bread to the pudding. Hasn't changed a bit but not much to change, with the exception that adding real whole vegetables to the meal would be a great addition--us adults need our fiber! All in all, Dolly and company have delivered many great attractions, this one in particular just doesn't float my fancy as it did in my childhood--better to try her pirate show or the Comedy Barn (plus, ya know the famous theme park too ) read more

Just not what it use to be as the dixie stampede. The show is not as good & way more expensive.

Well I never been in my life at 40 years even coming to these area almost every other year. I seen the boot cups at folks homes, but didn't know anything really more than the ads folks push on ya in the streets. Show was at 6pm Friday night, found out it was a sold out show and they was a show before that. So parking was full. Got there about 4:45 and waiting in line . Already had tickets before we come on vacation. We to the pre show which where they toke group photo and had pre show - which is singing and you can get drink both adult and none adult. These is where you get the boot cups since all are served in that. Also flags. It was a a lot of food, a whole roasted chicken, pull pork, mash potatoes, corn on cob, and dessert. Not a very kids friendly meal in my opinion. From us get there, and quick shop, it was 3 and 1/2 hours. But I will say the apple pie mix drink was good. Our server was great think his name was nix or Nixon - a lot of sounds, so may be miss heard. Christmas show was good, it was western feel, but cool fact if you stay till end the riders come to the edge and let kids pet them an will autograph the cups, flags and anything yall like, they have a marker in their saddle. read more

Christmas Day show at 830. Best crowd handling I've experienced in a very long time. The pre show was entertaining and helped pass the time. Seating was spectacular and the dinner service was impressive. Precision and grace was how I would describe how they serve so many people for dinner and a show.

I had a lot of fun my evening at Dolly's stampede! I came for an 8:30p show on a Wednesday and it was pretty full but not packed. Plenty of parking was available in the big lot. I came right before the show started and they were even calling me, they really keep track of the tickets! The show started right when I arrived, and I was served sweet tea right away. Throughout the show they go through the rest of the courses. The food is pretty good but it is sparse on veggies (a piece of corn is all the veg you get). Just bear that in mind - I'm someone who needs veg daily so it was a dense meal for me! But I enjoyed the show and the vibes, overall I'm glad I went the once. I bought the cheapest level ticket which was $71 and felt it was worth it - wouldn't go again but if anyone was visiting Gatlinburg i would rec to go one time :) read more

The lines were fast, the preshow was so cheesy I wanted to throw-up. The food was delicious as always. The entertainment was top notch. Our waitress needs to be at any other job than this one. We asked for sweet tea and she insisted she had NO MORE TEA period. Held up the pitcher to show us instead of going to get more. Our food was last to get to us because the waitress was so tiny she could barely hold the tray with all the little hens on it. She completely messed up my experience. I wanted a South Flag even though we were sitting on the North side. She yelled at me and said YOU CAN'T have a South Flag! WE ARE THE NORTH! WOW! What ever happened to the customer is always right? Nope, not going back. read more

Don't like eating in the dark. Am not ABOUT to drink my soup from a bowl (and they don't even have a spoon available when you ask for one ... you're just expected to slurp it up like a heathen ... no thanks), so it just sat there untouched and wasted by me and the others in our party. I guess it's supposed to be unique or cool or something, but it's just uncouth. And the way they bring one thing at a time ... the assembly line type serve ... you're eating your chicken while waiting for your sides (or vice versa) instead of getting to enjoy it all together. And the way the seating is ... once you're in, you can't get out without crawling all over s bunch of people. Nope, nothing about that experience makes me ever want to go back again. read more

I paid a little extra to have a slightly better seat and I don't believe for one second that I received that courtesy.

Fun experience! We went for the Christmas show. My husband went out for the "horseshoes" and had a blast. The show was fantastic. The food was great. There's bad internet in the show so get your alcohol drinks pre-show while watching the pre-show entertainment.

Splurge for the premium seats (not VIP unless you've got kids or special occasion). Definitely worth the money read more

AWESOME SHOW! Like actually very impressed by the horse riders especially the women putting on most of the show doing tricks with the horses. About 1.5 hours of entertainment and dinner/desert. Love how interactive it was! HOWEVER, Not going to lie I was really skeptical about the quality of the food, but I was pleasantly surprised how good it actually was. Everything was hot and cooked perfectly, the roasted chicken or (Cornish hen?) was sooo flavorful! I'm not a carnival/show person by any means, but this was actually very fun and the food was all American comfort. 10/10 recommend taking your family or friends for a fun event (especially if it's rainy or snowy and can't do anything outside) read more

Now if you're new to the area, this is a must. If you've been before and can afford it, you should probably go again. The food is outstanding, especially the soup. Make darn sure to have that soup (everybody gets the same meal unless you report a food allergy and I think they maybe offer a vegetarian plate). The service includes food first brought out quick quick quick so you can start eating right away. Shortly after food and drinks are out the show begins. The whole building goes dark and suddenly you're in a horse show with all kinds of tricks and entertainers and the entire feel of the place changes instantly. You can continue to get refills but your plate is one and done. This does also include dessert. DO NOT SKIP THIS. It's just too good. read more

A fun and unique dinner experience! I've never done a dinner and show before, so I was excited to see what the hype was about for this show. I was expecting it to be very cheesy, but the horse riders and whole production is actually very impressive. There were bison, pigs, mini horses, and birds all trained for the show and added to variety of excitement. I really liked how they made the show a "competition" between the two sides of the arena. It kept us all engaged and cheering for our teams, as well as having some audience members participate throughout the night. All the food was brought to us quickly, without interrupting the show and servers refilled our drinks consistently. The food was surprisingly good! The soup was delicious and flavorful, chicken seasoned perfectly, biscuit warm and fresh, and mashed potatoes smooth and buttery. The pulled pork was a bit chewy, but the bbq sauce helped, and the corn on the cob a bit plain. The meal finished off with a choice of dessert, which I got the apple strudel. It was warm and filled with cinnamon coated apple slices, but the pastry was chewy and tough to cut, instead of flaky. Overall a great experience and left very full and entertained! read more

Our first visit here last night for the 8:00 pm dinner show. And I have to be completely honest when we got there we was expecting so much more entertainment then what we actually got. So we first got to the waiting room till they called everyone into the show. And we got drinks. My husband had a mixed drink that was good. I had a sweet tea and it was so sweet I couldn't even drink it. So they did a preshow while we wanted and that was really good. We got into the auditorium and we got seated everything was good. The food was really good. To be honest it was the best part. The show started really good with them coming out with the horses and carriages and then they started flying around there was more acrobatics then the horses coming out and performing the show. Then they brought out a butterfly effect that really didn't even go with the show. Seems like there was more dancing and comedy than there was stampedes and horses. We was very disappointed in the show and won't be returning read more

Save your money, the food made 3 of us ill. We literally had to use the restroom after the show. No alcohol involved for us. The "soup" is a thin milk. Some thought it was gravy not soup. The waiter told us he couldn't give all of us water. There were 9 of us. Some only ordered water with the meal. I didn't get water. The food was not warm. Soggy corn, cold chicken& cold pork. Thin mashed potatoes, definitely not homemade. The best part was the biscuit. The show was a 4 out of 10. It was a real disappointment. The show was better than the food. Service was mediocre. read more
