FIRE IN THE HOLE!

Dollywood guests are shouting a popular refrain again, as the park’s beloved Blazing Fury roller coaster reopened Friday morning. “Fire in the hole” rang out time and again with thrilled visitors enjoying the ride after its recent refreshment. Dollywood Parks & Resorts President Eugene Naughton, along with firefighters from the Pigeon Forge Fire Department (PFFD), marked the occasion with a special ceremony shortly after the park opened on Independence Day.

Naughton invited PFFD Chief Tony Watson and several of his firefighters and their families to be the first in line for the attraction, honoring their dedication to the local community while also celebrating the theme of the story told by the historic ride. Built in 1978, Blazing Fury is the longest operating roller coaster at the park, and its tale of fire sweeping through an 1880’s town is one that has entertained millions of guests for generations.

While the heart and spirit of Blazing Fury remain unchanged, guests may notice a few enhancements throughout the ride. The ride has been refreshed overall with characters receiving new costumes, updated signage, some new track work, and the waterfall area receiving a complete and beautiful rebuild. This work was done with respect for the attraction’s original charm.
