Hi Everyone,
I have been doing some research for all things Thanksgiving in Sevier County for 2024. What's Open for Meals, Fun Stuff to Do, etc. Dollywood is closed on Thanksgiving Thursday, reopening at 11am on Friday. As of this writing, Friday November 29th says the Crowd Calendar for Dollywood attendance will be at 40%, which makes it a great day to go if that number holds. It will likely change as the date draws closer and the weather is good. Dollywood's two resorts and restaurants will be open for Thanksgiving Day.
