From the moment we arrived at Dollywood on Sunday afternoon, we knew the park was going all in to host Coaster Con.
This past summer, Dollywood co-hosted the American Coaster Enthusiasts marquee Coaster Con event. We spent 3 and a half days at the park filled with special events, offerings and tours that allowed us to see Dollywood in a way we had not yet experienced.
In this photo update are our impressions of Dollywood's new for 2023 family coaster Big Bear Mountain as well as behind the scenes looks of FireChaser Express, Tennessee Tornado and Mystery Mine. You'll also get to see why, in our opinion, Dollywood hosted perhaps the best roller coaster enthusiast event ever.
The park rolled out the red carpet for members of the American Coaster Enthusiasts.
I don't think it may even be possible to top this.
The event occurred in the middle of the park's Summer Celebration event.
We started the event with an ACE exclusive train ride.
