Dirty Dancing Remake!


A nationwide television audience will tune in Wednesday May 24, 2017, to watch the highly anticipated remake of the movie classic Dirty Dancing, while North Carolina continues in a leading role. Dirty Dancing aired at 8 pm on ABC. On @VisitNC's social platforms - Facebook, Instagram and Twitter - the team has helped build momentum during the past week by posting photos, provided by partners, of movie locations and video of the official trailer. The production had a direct in-state spend of $16M and created more than 1200 job opportunities - 250 of which were crew positions for the state's film professionals. Described by the network as a "three-hour musical event," Dirty Dancing filmed in Henderson, Jackson, Transylvania, Polk, and Buncombe counties. The TV movie includes several locations that fans of the film can visit and have their own "time of their life," while also visiting some Lake Lure sites and paying homage to the original feature film.

During Wednesday night's premiere, Visit North Carolina's 60-second "Beauty Here" spot aired in target markets during the ABC broadcast. On VisitNC.com, viewers can read about Dirty Dancing's significance to the state as they "Relive Famous Film Scenes in North Carolina," reminding them that the original movie was also filmed here, specifically in the Lake Lure area. That iconic movie is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year (2017), which adds special intrigue to the annual Dirty Dancing Festival in Lake Lure in August.
