If you follow theme parks on social media, you’ll notice that a park in the Ozarks is built just a little differently. Interspersed with the “Buy your Season Pass Now” and “Hey, we’re opening soon” graphics, you’ll find a healthy dose of memes and the occasional shark reference. Funny enough, the park prefers it that way. How does Silver Dollar City do it? Ozarkly.
Joining us on the Coaster101 podcast this week are Silver Dollar City Director of Communications Joey Thorsen & Communications Manager Dalton Fischer, who, in between noting that Andrew has still yet to visit Silver Dollar City, reveal a little behind the curtain for all things theme park communications, Fire in the Hole, Silver Dollar City Resort, and a hint of what might be happening in 2026. Maybe. TBD.
