Attraction Overview
Make sure to warm up your vocal cords before you get ready to sing along with the bears who reside in The Country Bear Jamboree. This attraction is a musical review at the Grizzly Hall where the famous bear residents sing a musical review from park open until close. When entering the theatre, you will see the room come to life.
There is a buffalo, moose, and deer hanging on the wall, ready to host the show and get the singalong started. Once the music starts playing, you will see different “redneck bears” playing classic country music. Guests may be familiar with some famous bears such as Big Al, Henry, and Teddi Berra.
Walt Disney initially imagined this attraction going inside of a hotel in California called Disney’s Mineral Skiing Resort. Unfortunately, this did not come to light after Walt’s passing. Before Walt’s death, though, he worked with Imagineer Marc Davis, who completed the attraction plans. At this time, the show was supposed to be in a restaurant called Bear Band Resort. Later the idea came to open Country Bear Jamboree as a standalone attraction and include in the opening of the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
