Known as the ‘Hollywood of the East’, North Carolina has been the location for hundreds of famous movies but none more so than the eighties classic film, Dirty Dancing. North Carolina has teamed up with Virgin Holidays to give you the chance to win an unforgettable holiday for two to the original Dirty Dancing movie locations.

North Carolina is a state of untold charm where spectacular mountains rise to the west, while tides roll lazily against 300 pristine miles of gulf-stream warmed coastline. In between lie the Heartland’s gentle hills, cosmopolitan cities, outdoor activities, rich Native American heritage, famous southern hospitality and four vibrant seasons.

Your prize holiday will take you high into the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains where Dirty Dancing was filmed along the striking 27 mile shoreline of Lake Lure. With Virgin Holidays you’ll stay at the Lake Lure Inn, the same hotel that Johnny and Baby stayed in while you’ll also experience Asheville, one of the most amazing mountain escapes you’ll ever visit!

Surrounded by spectacular mountain ranges you’ll recognise the club house and staff quarters and the river where they practised on the log before the famous “lift” scene in the crystal clear waters of the lake.

North Carolina offers a treasure trove of natural wonders so whether you want to relax on our beautiful beaches, shop till you drop in our cosmopolitan cities or take a dance in the mountains, North Carolina has it all.
