What I was wondering, and before anybody says anthing(ahme*justcuzisaidso*ahem), I lookd on Dollywood's website, but it dosen't say anything about cheaper admission to the park in the evenings. I dont' want to go if I have to pay the $42 for just a few hours in the evening, as I'm kinda strapped for cash that week anyhow. Are there any lower prices for evening visits like most parks? And if not, any coupons/promos for cheaper entry?
Thanks a bunch!

I don't have any tips on Dollywood discounts, though. I have a Coke can, but it's $5 off a two-day "Splash n Play" ticket. What a bargain :-\
Its about $30-32 if I remember correctly.
Didn't know about the after 3pm deal, that works great for me since I'll be there after 3pm on a Sunday and want to go back Monday morning for a few morning "wake up" Thunderhead rides.

I guess the park IS trying to pay off Thunderhead!! ;)
"Clint, I live in Johnson City. Email me if you want restaurant recommendations. Here's a hint .. they all involve bbq"
You do? cool. I live in Linville, it's about 45min. away in NC. :)
Anyway, I've never encountered any discounts for Dollywood other than the occasional Coca-Cola can thing above. Dollywood claims that some Pigeon Forge hotels offer dicount tickets, but actually these are just regular tickets that you can buy before you get to the park.
Also said above, there is "After 3 Next Day Free", but it looks like you won't have that much time on your hands.
Food City (a local retail chain) offers Season Passes at a discount, but I believe they only do this when the park opens for the season in April.

Even if they are not discounted, I would strongly reccomend doing this... especially if you arrive at the park in the morning. What seemed like the longest line of the day was the one we had to stand in to buy our tickets at the front gate.
Like the Nike commercials say.....just DO it! ;-)

No. They don't have discounts for single day tickets, but the tickets they sell (at least at the hotel I was at...Holiday Inn Express) was good for two days for the price of one. You did not have to get it after 3. It was a two day pass, but the second day must be used within 2 days of the first.
Sorry, no cheap tickets in the evenings, even though it would make sense for some people who just want to ride the rides anyway.

I hope they stay open later in the future.

I wish they would at least bring back the 9pm closings. Eight really crunches your schedule if you get to the park later in the day. Hopefully Dollywood will never result to SDC like hours. (Park closes at 6:30-evan in the summer!) *** Edited 7/14/2004 1:08:27 AM UTC by Dukeis#1***
