00:00Dolly Parton fans will have the chance to celebrate her live music with a festival planned for 2027.
00:07Dolly Fest will be held over two weekends in Nashville and here in London.
00:12The announcement comes days after Parton died aged 80 after a short battle with cancer.
00:17The festival was originally planned for this year in January around Parton's 80th birthday.
