Regal Expands Dolly Parton Tribute Screenings Across the U.S.
Priced at $9.25 in a nod to her iconic anthem, Regal is bringing two of Dolly Parton’s most beloved films to more than 200 theaters nationwide. From September 4 through September 9, every ticket sold will benefit the Imagination Library, the singer’s hallmark foundation providing free books to children.
Vikki Neil, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Regal, noted that because the company is headquartered in East Tennessee, the partnership feels like a local endeavor extended to a national stage. Since its inception in 1995, Parton’s Imagination Library has grown into an international effort, currently delivering a free book every month to one in six children under the age of five in the United States. Jeff Conyers, President of The Dollywood Foundation, emphasized that the program is designed to create lasting impact rather than simply serving as a historical archive of the artist's work. Tickets for the screenings are currently available through the Regal mobile app and the company’s website.
