🦋 SEPTEMBER 25 IS OFFICIALLY DOLLY DAY IN NASHVILLE! 🦋 (925)

And, of course, Nashville has found the perfect way to honour Dolly — 9 to 5 Day… with fireworks at 9:25pm. 💖✨

said Music City will come together on September 25 to celebrate the life, music and extraordinary legacy of Dolly Parton, with the emphasis firmly on something Dolly spent her life doing: giving back.

Through Give Like Dolly, the city will encourage acts of generosity and continue supporting the childhood literacy work so close to Dolly’s heart, including her beloved Imagination Library and Begin Bright.

Then, at exactly 9:25pm, fireworks will light up Nashville in her honour. 🎆🦋

It feels wonderfully Dolly — not simply remembering the songs, the rhinestones and that unmistakable voice, but carrying forward the kindness and generosity behind them.

As Nashville puts it:

“The best way to celebrate Dolly is to keep giving like Dolly.” ❤️

What a beautiful way for Music City to honour its Queen. 👑🦋

🤠 IS BACK IN MANCHESTER! 🇺🇸🎶

This is one we absolutely love at UK Country News. We’ve seen A Country Night in Nashville before and it’s such a great night — a brilliant live band, seriously talented musicians and that proper feel-good country atmosphere.

And it’s quite a milestone coming up: 2027 marks 10 years since the show began in 2017. In that time it’s toured theatres across Europe, the UK and even made it to the Royal Albert Hall.

Before the anniversary celebrations, Dominic Halpin & The Hurricanes are bringing the show to Manchester Opera House on Thursday 24 September 2026 at 7.30pm.

If you’ve never been, think of a night in a buzzing downtown Nashville honky-tonk, taking you through country music old and new. Expect songs made famous by Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Alan Jackson, The Chicks, Kacey Musgraves and more — including favourites such as Ring of Fire, Crazy, 9 to 5, Need You Now and The Gambler.

We’ll be there again — and if you love live country music, this is a cracking night out. 🤠🎸🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
