Foster Families

We're proud to partner with Every Child Tennessee and the Tennessee Dept of Children’s Services to offer a special opportunity for children placed in foster care in Tennessee to experience the magic of Dollywood with a complimentary one-time visit when accompanied by their Tennessee foster family or caregiver. This exclusive offer is designed to create lasting memories in a welcoming, fun-filled environment. We invite children in foster care and their caregivers to enjoy the world-class attractions, entertainment, and hospitality that Dollywood is known for.

Forms must be submitted two weeks prior to your planned visit date to Dollywood. You will receive a confirmation email from Dollywood once your request is approved and finalized.

Requirements:

• Child's foster family/caregiver must reside in Tennessee.
• Foster care children from other states are eligible if:
  1. Child is placed with a caregiver who resides in Tennessee, AND
  2. An ICPC (Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children) request has been completed and approved by the TN Dept. of Children’s Services.
• A copy of each child’s placement contract must be submitted through our secure portal.
• PLEASE NOTE: Dollywood partners exclusively with the TN Dept. of Children’s Services (TN DCS) and its providers. We are unable to accommodate placements through non-TN DCS affiliated providers.
