Austin City Limits Remembers Dolly Parton

54m 35s

Austin City Limits mourns the loss of Dolly Parton, the legendary singer, songwriter, musician and cultural icon. When Dolly Parton made her long-awaited ACL debut in 2000 for a Season 26 taping that aired January 18, 2001, ACL Executive Producer Terry Lickona called the occasion “a dream come true.” More than 25 years later, that dream remains one of the most treasured performances of ACL TV.

Aired: 08/27/26 | Expires: 08/29/29
Austin City Limits is produced by Austin PBS and funding is provided in part by Dell Technologies, the Austin Convention Center Department, Cirrus Logic and AXS Ticketing. Additional funding is provided by the Friends of Austin City Limits. Produced in the State of Texas with the support of the Office of the Governor, Texas Film Commission.
