Christmas at Dixie Stampede in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., opens for 26th season

Guests get a taste of a Smoky Mountain Christmas at Dolly’s Dixie Stampede in Pigeon Forge, TN. In its 26th season, Christmas at Dixie begins with Dolly reminiscing about the Christmases she spent growing up in the Great Smoky Mountains as snow gently falls in the 35,000 square foot arena.

From there, Dolly’s entire Dixie Stampede cast joins in the fun. Thirty-two magnificent horses and dozens of performers take guests on a nostalgic holiday adventure. The celebration is complete with a breathtaking, live Nativity scene, the Sugar Plum fairy bringing toys to life, Christmas music, some friendly competition between elves from the North Pole and South Pole, and, of course, a four-course holiday feast for the family.

Christmas at Dixie Stampede is presented from November to January each year.
