'Dollyfest' Revived: Dolly Parton's Beloved Festival Gets New Life
Dolly Parton's estate has announced that the festival 'Dollyfest' will now be held in her honor in 2027, after she was forced to step back from it due to health issues. The event was initially scheduled for this past January on Parton's 80th birthday in Nashville.
The festival will take place across consecutive weekends in Tennessee and England, with the goal of celebrating Parton's legacy. Danny Nozell, founder and CEO of CTK Enterprises, stated that 'What Dolly started, we will ensure is brought to life.'
No details have been shared yet about the specific dates or performers for the event. However, it is clear that this was a project close to Parton's heart, with Nozell saying 'This is something that is authentic to her, something that feels right to me, and something that artists and fans around the world can participate in.'
