Petition to Rename Nashville Airport After Dolly Parton Gains Momentum

A fan-led petition to rename Nashville International Airport after country music legend Dolly Parton is gaining serious traction—and honestly, it just feels right. After all, if anyone deserves their name on the gateway to Music City, it’s the Queen of Nashville herself.
The petition, originally launched on Change.org back in January, has recently been making headlines and collecting signatures at a rapid pace. The proposal? Change the name to Dolly Parton International Airport—because let’s be real, who wouldn’t want to say they’re “Departin’ from Parton”?
And, of course, it would have to be open well beyond just 9 to 5.
As of now, the petition has surpassed 47,000 signatures and continues to grow as fans rally behind the idea of honoring Dolly’s legacy in a truly iconic way.
