Wild Adventures Theme Park (WA) announces a special addition to the park’s 2011 concert series. The park celebrates its 15th anniversary with legendary, country music and entertainment icon Dolly Parton performing live in concert later this season.

“I may own my own theme park, but Wild Adventures is such a great venue, I just wanted to include it on my world tour,” Dolly said. “Besides, I have some great fans in south Georgia and north Florida!”

The park will give 2011 Season Passholders the first opportunity to purchase reserved seats for this special concert before they go on sale to the public. On sale and concert dates will be announced in July.
