Roanoke, Va.’s new, premier venue, The Exchange Music Hall, located at 201 S. Jefferson Street, celebrates a beloved icon, the universally loved Dolly Parton, with a party for a purpose — DOLLY DISCO 2026 ‘Big Hair • Big Hearts’ featuring Tomas C of Magic City Discos, with Femme Fatales Vinyl Club — on Friday, September 25 (9.25). 

Tickets are $15, with a portion of proceeds benefiting Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. Music starts & doors open at 7 p.m. for the all-ages dance party. 

The local arm of Dolly’s Imagination Library, Junior League of Roanoke Valley, will be in attendance, providing speakers and information about the Library, including Dolly’s founding vision, how eligible families can enroll, how attendees can support financially, as well as the Library’s impact in the Roanoke Valley. *There might even be a donation station (accepting financial support, not actual book donations) featuring a life-size cut-out of Dolly Parton …

Not to miss out on the fun — and to build on their ongoing financial donation drive for Dolly’s Imagination Library — Woodshed: Appalachian Crafts & Coffee Café (The Exchange’s downtown neighbors) will also be in attendance selling Dolly swag!

So, plan to get Dolly-ed up, bring out that Big Hair & Big Hearts, think about donating (financially, not physically) to the Imagination Library, and join us as we celebrate one of the very best to ever walk among us. We love you, Dolly!
