Not Just Whistling Dixie

Have you ever seen stampeding bison? How about a chariot race? Located just around the corner from our Gatlinburg cabins, Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede is a one of a kind dinner attraction featuring animal tricks, live music and mouth watering food.

Free Pre-Show Entertainment

Before the show begins, patrons enjoy complimentary entertainment at the Dixie Belle Saloon. Guests have the chance to meet the show’s beautiful horses in Dixie Stampede’s open air stables before making their way to the second level of the saloon. On floor two, visitors will hear the musical and comedy stylings of the great bluegrass band Mountain Ruckus as they order pre-show drinks and snacks. After this fantastic opening act, guests will be ushered into the 35,000 square foot arena for the main attraction.

The Show

The Dixie Stampede show is full of nonstop fun and entertainment. Decked out in festive clothing and authentic 19th century costumes, the stars of Dixie Stampede perform incredible animal stunts. You will be mesmerized as cowboys and cowgirls ride their horses through rings of fire, or gallop through the stadium on the back of an ostrich. With dancing, singing, fire breathing and more, the show truly has something for everyone. Every show comes with a delicious four course meal complete with a delectable dessert.

After enjoying the incredible performances at Dixie Stampede, you will be ready to retire to one of our cozy Gatlinburg cabins.
