Nestled in the breathtaking Great Smoky Mountains, Dollywood Parks & Resorts offers meeting planners a destination where business and leisure converge seamlessly. With Dollywood’s DreamMore Resort and Spa and the new Dollywood’s HeartSong Lodge & Resort, groups enjoy state-of-the-art facilities, Southern hospitality, and the bonus of being just minutes from the award-winning Dollywood Theme Park—all of which are located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
DreamMore Resort and Spa, with 300 rooms and 6,000 square feet of meeting space, is known for its warm service and flexible event options. Guests can enjoy elevated Southern dining at Song & Hearth or recharge at the on-site spa, balancing productivity with relaxation.
The newly opened HeartSong Lodge & Resort takes inspiration from the surrounding mountains. This resort features floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping views and more than 26,000 square feet of event space, including a grand ballroom and an outdoor event lawn. Ember & Elm, the resort’s signature restaurant, offers fresh and locally inspired cuisine, while fire pits and lounges create inviting spots for networking.
For Mandy Herman, vice president of membership and marketing for PaymentsFirst of Linthicum Heights, Maryland, the experience exceeded expectations. “Our experience at HeartSong Lodge & Resort in Pigeon Forge during our Solutions Payments Conference was nothing short of exceptional,” Herman says.
One of the biggest advantages for planners is the access to Dollywood Theme Park. Attendees can unwind after meetings with thrilling rides, live entertainment and unique culinary experiences. Seasonal festivals and events add even more opportunities to foster team connections in a one-of-a-kind environment.
Dollywood makes planning easier with special offers tailored for groups. The popular Flexible Attrition Policy reduces risk by offering leeway on attendance minimums, giving planners peace of mind in today’s ever-changing business climate.
With exceptional facilities, stunning natural surroundings, distinctive dining and exclusive access to the award-winning Dollywood Theme Park, Dollywood’s DreamMore Resort and Spa, and Dollywood’s HeartSong Lodge & Resort stand out as premier meeting destinations in the Southeast. For planners looking to elevate their next event, Dollywood offers the perfect combination of productivity and unforgettable experiences.
