Dolly Parton Set To Open ‘Dolly’s Tennessean Travel Stop’ In 2026

Dolly Parton is expanding her empire into the truck stop business by partnering with Tennessean Travel Stop to rebrand their flagship location in Cornersville, Tennessee, as ‘Dolly’s Tennessean Travel Stop,’ set to open in early summer 2026. The collaboration aims to provide travelers and truck drivers with a welcoming, “home-like” rest stop infused with the 79-year-old country icon’s signature style and Tennessee spirit, with plans to open additional locations statewide and nationwide. “I have spent the bulk of my life on the road, and more specifically on a bus,” Parton says in a statement on the website. “All the years spent visiting greasy spoon cafes, truck stops, and roadside pit stops have given me an understanding of what travelers desire on the road. Whether you are driving a truck, a bus, or a car, you want a place that feels like home and recharges you for the rest of your journey. I believe we will fill a void out there on the highways, all while bringing the heart and soul of Tennessee.” (People)
