October 2-3, 2026 | West Plains Downtown
Join us for a brand-new tradition celebrating two of country music’s most iconic names and the hometown legacy that started it all.
Dolly & Porter Days is a two-day festival in Downtown West Plains honoring Country Music Hall of Fame member Porter Wagoner and his legendary partnership with Dolly Parton. Building on the success of the 2025 Dolly & Porter Stroll, this expanded celebration brings music, art, food, family fun, and community together for an unforgettable weekend.
Festival activities include:
• Live gospel, country, Americana, and bluegrass performances
• Hot Dog eating contest
• Local vendors and artisans
• Live music throughout the festival
• The “Rags to Art” fiber arts exhibition inspired by Dolly’s Coat of Many Colors put on by Explore West Plains
• Dolly & Porter costume contests for adults, kids, and pets
• Kids’ Makers Market and family activities
• Dessert bake-off competition
• Food trucks
Porter Wagoner’s story began right here in West Plains before taking him to the Grand Ole Opry, television screens across America, and the Country Music Hall of Fame. His partnership with Dolly Parton helped shape country music history, and this festival celebrates that legacy while showcasing the creativity, hospitality, and culture of the Ozarks. Along with celebrating Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton, Dolly & Porter Days will recognize the contributions of Speck Rhodes, the legendary Ozarks entertainer and Porter Wagoner Show regular whose humor and musicianship remain an important part of our region’s country music history.
Admission is free, and all ages are welcome.
Mark your calendars for October 2-3 and join us in West Plains Downtown for a weekend of music, memories, and hometown pride.
