Not sure how or when the transition happened, but before Dollywood was Dollywood (and before Dolly owned it), it was called Rebel Railroad.

Here's an article on it.

She did have a Civil War themed dinner show she removed Confederate/Dixie imagery from in 2018.

I live in E TN and saw a show when it was still called Dixie Stampede. It was cringy old South nostalgia but there was nothing vile. I haven’t caught the post 2018 version.

I saw it once as a kid in the 90s. (Kinda a middle class Appalachian rite of passage, amirite?)

I had the same read. Cringey old South, but nothing truly vile.

I'd rather walk barefoot over a bed of Lego than see a dinner show though, so don't expect a review from me anytime soon.

First time I heard about it was 2020 on tiktok ppl were posting their videos, i think the thing is called Dolly Parton's Stampede or something

I don't remember that, and I've researched Dolly to write about her from this perspective.,
