Hi Guys

have any of you been to the dixie stampede show ?

1) was it worth it

2) what time did you arrive for the show/pre show and what time did you leave

thanking you all in advance !

Yeah we thought it was worth it,the pre show,well you could skip that in my opinion,although the kids thought it was quite cheesey.

As we had bought the package with the free pictures flags etc,we got there quite early and enjoyed the build up,but you could easily arrive during this.

The show we thought was brill very patriotic,

We left straight after it finished to avoid the kids bankkrupting us with all the merchandise they had seen and wanted!!!

We all thought it was one of the best shows we had seen.

Dixie's stampede was brilliant when we went last year. Food okay but show was brilliant. YOu can arrive from 10am on the day of your show to spend time with the horses. We went on a Saturday night and arrived about 4pm and spent time looking at all the horses and watching them run them up and down and my kids loved it. There is a pre dinner show which is a mini cabaret but is very funny. They do plastic soveiner boots which you can buy filled with your drinks and then get the refills cheaper. Kids loved these too. There is the usual staff selling you flags, hats etc during your meal and the photographs that get taken as you arrive

Show was very patriotic.

You are either on the north or the south's side and you cheer along with them to help them win games.

Show was brilliant would definitely recommend it.

Very much enjoyed this and rate this well above arabian nights, but if you want to enjoy the whole experience, try to arrive about an hour before your showtime so that you can see the pre-show, we missed ours, but was told it wasnt up to much.

You can see the majority of the horses aftewards, the food was far better than any dinner show we have ever been to and true american helpings

word to the wise if you are taking kids.

The signs that say " warning horses may bite"! They do...saw a young girl got a nip....

The only tip needed will be for the server, if they warrant a tip that is, but ours was fab and got $15 tip for the 4 of us

Been in 2005 and 2006 - The kids love it (so did my parents).

We arrived at about 5ish and were out just after 8.30pm.

Buy your tickets from onlineflorida.co.uk - we got ring side seats, photos, flags, free drinks, popcorn and peanuts all included in the cost (£20 per adult). Plus we had excellent meal and a few drinks during the main show.

Good family fun for £20 - Excellent value!
