Fans of Dolly Parton across the Northern Colorado region will be convening in Downtown Loveland for a night of celebrating the Queen of Country Music.

When is the Dolly Parton Bar Crawl in Downtown Loveland?

One of Dolly Parton's biggest hits  was "9 to 5." Did you know she only agreed to be in the movie '9 to 5' because the producers agreed to let her create and sing a song for the movie? So, why not celebrate Dolly on September 25 (9/25)?

I think this is great idea; September 25, 2026 is a Friday, so having a little bar crawl on Friday night is perfect. It's like those "Roper Romps" you hear about, where people dress up as Mrs. Roper from 'Three's Company' and go out for a crawl. There are many, many more fans of Dolly Parton, so Downtown should prepare for some fun mayhem.

The organizer of the non-sanctioned event is calling it "Get Dolly'd Up on 9two5." There's been a lot of talk about making September 25 "Dolly Parton Day" officially, much like how May 4 is "Star Wars Day" (May the Fourth Be With You;) I think we can all agree that it's a fine idea.

Imagine the different ways that a woman could have fun dressing up as Dolly: maybe just Jeans and a red shirt tied up, or go all the way - glittery gowns, high heels, rhinestones, a big wig, creating a heaving bosom.

From the organizer:

Get your BIG hair and BIGGER bosom
out on the town & we will create so much
static electricity we will pick up
everything but boys and money.
Kennys and Burts and Carl Deans
can tagalong for the fun.
Don't matter what time, Honey, long as you show up!

How great is it that the first September 25 after Dolly's passing is a Friday?
