Nearly three years in planning, 20 Dolly Parton–themed corn mazes are opening this fall. Several farms will donate part of proceeds to the Imagination Library.

Twenty farms across 15 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces built Dolly Parton–themed corn mazes that open this fall.
Maze designs were finalized in January 2026 and cut into fields in early summer of 2026.
# What happened Plans for Dolly Parton–themed corn mazes were finalized in January 2026 and cut into fields in early summer. The MAiZE Inc. worked with farms across North America to produce 20 separate mazes that will open this fall. The campaign was already in progress before Dolly Parton's death, but organizers say the mazes now carry added meaning.
# Why the mazes matter
# What visitors can expect From public descriptions and reporting: the mazes feature Dolly Parton imagery and references to her career. Some sites offer multiple difficulty paths, photo opportunities, interactive trivia or clues along the route, and additional family-friendly farm activities. The designs were created by The MAiZE Inc. and then carved into cornfields by participating farms.
# Where the mazes are located The 20 locations span the United States and Canada. A representative list includes:
Check with local farm operators for exact opening dates and ticketing.
# Timing and context Organizers say the design phase completed in January 2026 and the field cuts occurred in early summer. The campaign is part of The MAiZE Inc.'s ongoing Country Music Corn Maze series, which previously featured other country artists.
# Fundraising and the Imagination Library Each participating farm will give part of its proceeds to Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. The program delivers free books to young children and has been operating for three decades. The maze fundraisers are intended to support that ongoing work.
# Practical next steps for readers If you plan to visit: confirm dates, hours, ticketing, accessibility, and any timed-entry requirements with the specific farm. Expect standard fall festival elements such as photo opportunities, family activities, and multiple maze difficulty options at some sites.
# Bottom line Twenty Dolly Parton–themed corn mazes open across the U.S. and Canada this fall after nearly three years of planning. They combine seasonal entertainment with fundraising for the Imagination Library.
