Branson’s dinner shows are more than just meals—they’re experiences. Branson, MO, offers a wide range of dining experiences that include entertainment. Having tried quite a few dinner shows, here are some we think you’ll enjoy.
Dolly Parton’s Stampede Dinner Show
The show begins with an introduction to two teams of horses and cowboys at dinner time. Guests cheer on their section’s team, adding a fun, competitive element to the event. Horses and trick riders compete in a wide variety of classic Western events including barrel races, pig races, and carriage races. During the Stampede, a wall of 12.5 million LED lights provides a stunning backdrop to showmanship feats.
The waitstaff provides excellent service, and Skeeter provides cowboy comedy before the show. A true American stampede would not be complete without the majestic buffalo. You’ll forever remember seeing the quintessential American animal stampede around the arena. Red, white, and blue are displayed in abundance in the patriotic finale.

- Creamy vegetable soup
