Description

Join Truck Yard Fort Worth for Dolly Day, a free, family-friendly and dog-friendly event packed with live music, food trucks, costume contests, rhinestone magic & a children's book drive in honor of the Queen of Country, Dolly Parton.

They'll be strummin' and singin', sparklin' and shinin', and havin' ourselves a hootin’ good time! So grab your hat, shine up those boots, fluff up your wig, and come join the fun.

Special entertainment:

  • Dazzling Dolly Impersonator: (2:30–6:30pm) Snap photos with “Dolly”
  • Doggie Parton Costume Contest: (5pm) Bring your pup dressed in their best Dolly getup.
  • Best Kids Dolly Contest: (5:30pm) Little Dollys take the stage in their sparkliest country glam.
  • Best Dolly & Jolene Lookalike Contest: (6pm) Strut your stuff at for a chance to win.

What to expect:

  • Dolly-Themed Drinks: Sip on a little Southern charm with our Dolly-inspired cocktails. Grab a drink and strike a pose — because it’s always 9 to 5 somewhere.
  • Dolly Parton Impersonator + Performances: Snap a pic during the meet-and-greet, then watch “Dolly” light up the stage with lively musical performances.
  • Dolly & Jolene Dress-Up: Dress as Dolly, Jolene, or your favorite country icon and join a night of dazzling looks and playful rivalry. Whether you’re channeling rhinestone glamour or Jolene’s signature sass, this is your moment to shine.

Children's Book Drive: Taking a page from the Queen of Country herself, bring a new or gently used children’s book to donate and receive a special Dolly Parton pin while supplies last. Books benefit Little Hands Book Bank.
