Every year, tens of thousands of tourists flock to Pigeon Forge, TN for the city’s annual salute to their hometown superstar Dolly Parton with Dolly’s Homecoming Parade.

This year, the crowd is expected to grow exponentially with the parade’s addition of live-streaming on Facebook. The Facebook live video will air from both Dolly Parton and Dolly Parton’s Lumberjack Adventure Dinner & Show’s Facebook pages.

The parade is expected to begin at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 6 and will cover three miles of the Parkway through the heart of Pigeon Forge. It will also include Dolly Parton’s Lumberjack Adventure Dinner & Show as part of the streaming. The parade will feature 125 groups, including marching bands from Sevier County High School, Pigeon Forge High School, Fyffe High School from Fyffe, Alabama, and Cheatham County Central High School, as well as equestrian units, veterans’ groups, twirlers, antique tractors and much more.
