This was one of those shows that we had waited to try even after multiple visits to Disney World. If you’re staying at Fort Wilderness or even if you just want a unique experience, I definitely recommend booking this one for something a bit different during your Disney trip!

What is Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue?

Located inside Pioneer Hall at Fort Wilderness, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue is one of the longest running dinner shows in the United States (since 1974!). It’s easy to see why it’s stood the test of time! 

It combines Western themed musical comedy with a family style feast that will leave you full and smiling. Guests are treated to a hilarious performance filled with singing, dancing, and audience interaction. All while you dine on an all you care to enjoy dinner served right at your table.

We decided to kick off our Fort Wilderness stay with a dinner reservation at Hoop-Dee-Doo, and it turned out to be the perfect choice!

The performers were incredibly talented and engaging, bringing so much energy to the stage and even involving guests in the show! From the moment the curtain went up to the final bow, it was non stop fun. Our whole group was laughing, clapping along, and completely immersed in the performance.

It’s located right near the quick service at Fort Wilderness Resort. If you’re staying there with a golf cart, there is plenty of golf cart parking right outside!

Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue Menu Selections

Another one of the highlights of the evening was, without a doubt, the food! The meal is served family style, and they will bring out more helpings of anything you’d like additional servings at the table.

The menu features fried chicken, BBQ pork ribs, mashed potatoes, macaroni & cheese, cornbread, and salad. We enjoyed the full spread!

Even people in our family that don’t eat much meat thought the ribs and chicken were great!

There’s also the dessert, a giant strawberry shortcake! It’s a showstopper in itself, and a sweet way to end the night. The food was flavorful, comforting, and a great value for a Disney dining experience.

This is the perfect way to kick off your trip at Fort Wilderness! It really set the tone for our time there!
