The tour begins in Perth on Tuesday, November 8 at Burswood Dome, before heading to the Adelaide Entertainment Centre for a show on Saturday, November 12.

The show rolls east to Sydney at Acer Arena on Tuesday, November 15, and then onwards to wine country for two outdoor shows at Hope Estate in the Hunter Valley on November 19 and 20.

Dolly and her band then head to Melbourne for shows on November 22 and 23 at Rod Laver Arena before finishing up at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on November 25 and 26.

In addition to her illustrious music career, Parton’s foray into other ventures include a self-titled theme park, television variety shows and several successful films – including an Oscar nomination for her role in 9 to 5 – all of which have cemented her status as an American superstar.

With hits like 9 To 5, Here You Come Again, Jolene, and of course the incomparable I Will Always Love You, audiences are guaranteed to see the show of a lifetime.

With all new sets, costumes and even new music from her forthcoming album Better Day to be released later this year, it is sure to make an evening spent with Dolly Parton a night to remember.
