2012 Tweetsie Railroad Media Policy

We welcome and encourage visits to Tweetsie Railroad by members of the media, and will do everything possible to ensure you have an enjoyable Wild West adventure at North Carolina’s first theme park.

Please email or fax your request to Tweetsie Railroad (contact information provided below) at least three days prior to your scheduled visit. The request should be made on your company’s letterhead, contain your assignment and signature or be sent through your business email account. If approved, your ticket(s) will be held at the ticket office located at the park entrance. Please bring your news media credential, either a press card or business card, as well as your photo ID when you claim your ticket(s).

If your outlet or organization prefers you not accept complimentary tickets, please contact us and we will issue a full admission ticket for your visit.

We typically fulfill media requests within a 250-300 mile radius of the park, and outlying location requests on a case-by-case basis. Due to the tremendous number of requests, we must limit complimentary media tickets to the following categories:

Print Media – Publishers, Editors, Reporters, Writers and Photographers
Web Media – Bloggers (case-by-case basis), Web Editors, etc.
Broadcast Media – Station Managers, Producers, News Directors, Assignment Editors, Program Directors, Videographers and On-Air Personnel (Anchors, Hosts, etc.)
Freelance Writers – Must present written confirmation of assignment with application

Camera crews, film crews and photographers must be escorted by a Tweetsie publicity representative at all times.

We try to accommodate all requests, but final decisions are made at the discretion of Tweetsie Railroad. We appreciate your interest, and we look forward to your visit.

“I just have to email you to brag on Tweetsie! I brought my children (along with a friend and her children) to Tweetsie this fall. We only live a little over an hour away but had not been to Tweetsie in several years. Everyone at Tweetsie was SUPER NICE!!! We go to another park at least once a month and there is no comparison....Tweetsie won, hands down! Everyone working on the rides, in the shops, EVERYONE was so courteous and nice. Thanks for a very enjoyable day!!!”
