Sevier County residents have an opportunity to help their neighbors while also enjoying the festive environment of one of the nation’s premier Christmas events. Dollywood hosts Sevier County Days each operating day Nov. 5-13, allowing anyone who lives or works in the county to visit the park’s Christmas festival for a $5 donation to benefit Sevier County non-profits.
“Our community non-profits provide an invaluable service to the people who live in the county,” said Carol Agee, Dollywood Community Affairs and Philanthropy Manager. “We are so proud to work with the folks in our county who work so hard to support the community. With the holidays around the corner, we know there will be increased demand, so we want to be able to provide funding for the non-profits to help them with their missions this Christmas.”
Sevier County residents—or those who work in the county—must present state- or federally-issued photo identification and verification of residence or employment at any designated Dollywood ticket booth any day Nov. 5-13 as park capacity allows. To guarantee entry into the park, Sevier County residents can pre-purchase and reserve their tickets online by visiting Dollywood.com/SevierCountyDays. After purchasing online, guests must show proof of residency or employment at the Dollywood ticket booth to pick up their tickets.
As an added bonus for making the donation, the Sevier County Days ticket receives full upgrade value toward the purchase of a 2023 season pass.
In addition to monetary support, The Dollywood Company encourages passionate volunteers to reach out to their local non-profits to provide support where needed.
