Today is the day, friends!
The NEW Country Bear Musical Jamboree!
Country Bear Jamboree, an opening day attraction, closed in January for a refurbishment/to introduce a new version of the iconic attraction. We’ve been keeping up with all the latest news and updates over the course of these last few months, and today, the day has finally come for the new show to open to the public! But are people actually excited about the revamped show?
While our favorite characters are still present in Country Bear Musical Jamboree, the songs have been replaced with rockabilly, pop-country, and bluegrass-style renditions of popular Disney songs, like “Bare Necessities.” The show itself is inspired by the Opry-style shows you can find in Nashville, Tennessee.
New Sign!
We’ve gotten to see a sneak peek at the new show, its look, the characters’ outfits, and so much more, but now it’s time for the public to experience the show. We’ve been curious to see how long wait times would stretch to be during this reopening day because crowds, when the original show closed, were quite long! But, today seems to be telling a different story — at least during rope drop! While we did see quite a few folks heading into Magic Kingdom…
Crowds…
…it looks like most of them must have gone somewhere else, because when we got over to Grizzly Hall, we didn’t see too much of a crowd waiting to see the new show!
But nothing too bad over here!
Even as we headed into the theater lobby, we we met with plenty of room to walk around and take in the new decor — complete with lots of nods to the original show which you can read about here.
Waiting room
As far as wait times go, Country Bear Musical Jamboree runs continuous shows as long as the animatronics are cooperating, so you’re likely not going to have to wait too long from what we can see since the show runs about 16 minutes long. Even an hour after the park had been open, the wait time had only reached 15 minutes. We’ll keep an eye on the wait times and crowds throughout the day, though!

It’s likely that wait times for this attraction will decrease even more after a week or so of the new attraction is open, but fans coming on vacation may still have it higher on their list than normal to ensure they can see the new version.
