Dollywood Gives Free Ticket for Blood Donations, Plans 2025 Season Opening

Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, is running a blood‑donation incentive from July 20 to July 24. Anyone who successfully donates blood during that window receives a free park ticket usable through January 3, 2027, covering the park’s fall harvest and Christmas festivals. The program, organized by the regional blood service MEDIC, aims to bolster summer blood supplies.

The park also expects to begin its 2025 season in mid‑March, continuing its pattern of opening in early spring. Dollywood’s schedule includes seasonal festivals such as the Festival of Nations, Flower & Food Festival, Summer Celebration, and the Harvest and Christmas events, each offering distinct attractions and entertainment.
