Re: Dollywood Discussion ThreadLR ran great this fall once it reopened.
The Luminights stuff has increased the late October crowds, but yes everything is running except some water rides. Re: Dollywood Discussion Thread
Excellent, I rarely do water rides and LR running well is huge, as thats why I chose this park to do over some others. What about a weekday vs weekend? I reckon weekday must be better at that time of year. Re: Dollywood Discussion ThreadI went to Dollywood on Halloween last year; it was a Wednesday. It was PERFECT. The weather was warm, but not hot, and the crowds were... well, non-existent. We walked onto all the rides. The crowd picked up a little in the evening, but it was mostly just parents with little kids in costumes there to trick'or'treat at LumiNights. I absolutely would recommend a weekday.
Re: Dollywood Discussion ThreadI was at Dollywood last year on the Friday after Halloween. LumiNights was still happening and the crowds did pick up a little bit moreso at night than the day, but the rides were mostly walk-ons including Lightning Rod, which btw ran perfect all day. It's definitely one of the best times to visit the park!
Re: Dollywood Discussion ThreadWhat will the crowds be like on Good Friday (April 19th)? It’ll be my first time at the park. I’m staying at dreammore so we’ll have complimentary timesaver passes regardless but I really hope it won’t be packed. I’m also crossing my finger at that Wildwood Grove will be open, I heard someone say mid-late April so we’ll see what happens.

Re: Dollywood Discussion ThreadI'm so excited to see the finished product! I'm sure its going to look amazing!
Re: Dollywood Discussion ThreadTo further solidify the rumors of Slidewinder's demise, it has now been listed on Wikipedia as being defunct (if you believe Wiki).
Also, the link to the ride's separate description web page has been deleted. It now redirects to the general ride and attractions page ![]() I also suspect the SkyZip will not be returning for the 2019 season as well, which is not as a big of a loss for me personally. I took the opportunity to ride it once, in it's opening season way back when (and now zip lines are all over the area, so it's wasn't that unique of an attraction anymore). However, the Mountain Slidewinder, imo was the park's best water ride—definitely the wettest! Such a classic staple for the park to quietly remove, with no last-rides opportunity for us longtime fans. How does the park decide what to announce which rides they are removing, such as River Battle? While others, such as the Wonder Wheel, and now Slidewinder & SkyZip just fade away. I do have to wonder if Slidewinder is actually in the process of being dismantled or if it will just sit dormant until the park finds a reason to re purpose the land? I guess we can find out on March 15, about a month away now! Return to Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
