Dinner Shows

May 4, 2024 by Allison Sandberg

We love going to a dinner show. You have your meal and entertainment all wrapped up in one. There is currently 1 dinner show at Walt Disney World.

Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue History

This famous dinner show had it’s first show in Sept of 1974 which makes it one of the longest running musicals in American theater history. It is located in Pioneer Hall at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort. There have been more than 35,000 performances and more than 10 million guests. Although the cast members change, the characters, jokes, music and story lines has basically stayed the same.

Menu

Hoop Dee Doo Revue Menu

The menu has stayed pretty much the same over the years. Start the meal with salad and amazing corn bread (they have gluten free options too). Then the main meal arrives with a bang! Fried chicken, ribs, and sides are served as part of the show. Make sure to leave room for the strawberry shortcake dessert too!! Don’t forget the drinks. Soft drink, iced tea, and lemonade are included. They even have Sangria (my favorite) and beer included.

The Show

The main cast of characters are three couples that just got off the stage coach, but they want to put on a show and so they select a few members of the audience to help. If you get chosen to be on stage, you will get a certificate making you an honorary Pioneer Hall Player. Want to get picked? Be sure to work it into the conversation with your server. Let them know if you are celebrating something special. Make eye contact and be engaged with the players as they start walking around. As soon as they get out to interact with the audience they are looking. (No guarantee but some tips to try).

Reservations

If you are on the dining plan they will require 2 table service credits per person. If not you will need to pay at the time of booking. Whether you are on the Disney Dining Plan or not you will have to secure your reservation with a credit card. Tip is included in the price of the meal as is some alcohol (beer and sangria). Arrive at the show entrance to check in at least 30 min before show time. Everyone is checked in and they start right on time and seat everyone very quickly. They run a tight ship, you don’t want to be late.

If you are there a little early (which I highly recommend) there are a few things to do. Walk around the nearby trading post. Burn off some energy at the play ground. Take a short walk to the Tri Circle D Ranch and look for the horses.

Call 407-WDW-Dine to make reservations or use the online reservation system through My Disney Experience.

The best way to get there varies by where you are coming from. From most places you will go to the Magic Kingdom and then take a boat to Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. DO NOT board the boat to Wilderness Lodge. If you are staying at Wilderness Lodge or the Contemporary you can board a boat directly to Fort Wilderness from your boat dock. Once you arrive at Fort Wilderness you will follow the path away from the boat dock and Pioneer Hall will be on your right just past the Trails End Restaurant.
