Dollywood's Barbeque & Bluegrass

May 26 - June 10, 2012

Bring your barbeque eating hands and your bluegrass tapping feet to the Dollywood Barbeque and Bluegrass Festival! With the price of park admission you get 300 free concerts by some of the greatest bluegrass acts in the country and great food to go along with it. Performers include Grammy award-winner Ricky Skaggs, Kentucky Thunder, Riders in the Sky, Rhonda Vincent and much more!

When you’re ready for some southern dishes head over to the Barbeque Headquarters at Market Square. There you can try some Tennessee pulled pork, delicious ribs, and succulent chicken. If you want to try something new, the Backstage Restaurant will have a hot new menu for the Dollywood Barbeque and Bluegrass Festival that includes all new barbeque dishes! If you still need to spice things up stop by the Sauce Tastin’ Station to try some eyebrow raising barbeque sauce. Make sure to leave room for dessert which includes a 3-pound slice from a 25-pound apple pie!
