The SongTeller Hotel shared a little more about what Dolly fans can expect from the special exhibit.
“Dolly’s Life of Many Colors Museum invites fans to experience Dolly’s expansive career and most personal memories through the eyes of Dolly herself,” its website explained. “Opening in 2026 on the third floor of Dolly Parton’s SongTeller Hotel, the museum will be the largest exhibit celebrating her life in the world to date, spanning every dynamic decade from the top of the mountains to the top of the world.”
Tickets are available for $31.99.
Is Dolly a national treasure?
Between her theme park, cookbook, jewelry line, baking line and much more, Parton stays busy. A Dolly-themed travel stop in Cornersville, Tennessee, is also coming this year.
Parton said of the new travel center, “I have spent the bulk of my life on the road, and more specifically on a bus. All the years spent visiting greasy spoon cafes, truck stops and roadside pit stops have given me an understanding of what traveler’s desire on the road.”
She added, “Whether you are driving a truck, a bus or a car, you want a place that feels like home and recharges you for the rest of your journey. I believe we will fill a void out there on the highways, all while bringing the heart and soul of Tennessee.”
“This project reflects Dolly’s love for her home state and her commitment to supporting local business, community and the travelers who keep America moving,” said Danny Nozell, CEO of CTK Enterprises and long-time manager of Parton.
Even at 79-year-old, Parton keeps busy with exciting new projects.
