PIGEON FORGE, Tenn. (828newsNOW) — For many Asheville families, the holidays aren’t complete without at least one trip over the mountains to Dollywood. And this year, the park is offering a flurry of Christmas-season deals aimed at making that tradition a little easier on the wallet.
As the theme park’s popular Smoky Mountain Christmas continues through Jan. 4, Dollywood has rolled out a lineup of Cyber Weekend specials, resort discounts and season-pass perks designed to draw visitors from across Western North Carolina during one of its busiest seasons.
Dollywood Resorts is offering up to 35 percent off nightly stays at its HeartSong Lodge & Resort and DreamMore Resort and Spa for visits between Nov. 18, 2025, and March 11, 2026. The properties, a frequent getaway for Asheville-area travelers thanks to their proximity and family amenities, feature regionally inspired dining, spa services and cozy mountain-themed spaces. The offer runs through Dec. 3 and includes blackout dates and minimum-stay restrictions.
A one-day Cyber Monday sale on Dec. 1 gives buyers of any 2026 Season Pass a free one-ride TimeSaver Pass for NightFlight Expedition, the park’s marquee new attraction slated to debut in spring 2026. The TimeSaver Pass is valid for one use between Aug. 3 and Aug. 30, 2026. The upcoming ride, a $50 million investment, is billed as the largest attraction project in Dollywood’s history and the first of its kind in the world, combining four ride features into a single experience.
Meanwhile, Smoky Mountain Christmas presented by Humana continues to be the centerpiece of Dollywood’s holiday season, featuring more than six million lights, towering Christmas trees and seasonal shows. New this year is Peppermint Valley in the Country Fair area.
Season passes purchased during the festival include admission to this year’s holiday event. Guests can also apply the value of a regular one-day ticket toward a 2026 pass.
More details on holiday events, tickets and resort offers are available at Dollywood.com or through the Dollywood app.
