To help you understand more about our show during this time, we’ve created a guide of what you need to know about visiting Dolly Parton’s Stampede in Branson during the winter.

See Our Holiday Show Through the First Week of January

Are you hoping to see our holiday show before the season ends? Make sure you plan your visit to Dolly Parton’s Stampede before January! You’ll have the opportunity to see our incredible Christmas show through early January. That means your Christmas spirit can last even after the holiday is over! Visit Dolly Parton’s Stampede to witness twinkling lights, snow falling softly, a breathtaking ice skating performance, a live nativity, and more. It’s a show you don’t want to miss!

Closed During February

Once our Christmas show ends in early January, our attraction closes until late February or early March each year. This gives our horses and performers time to prepare for the new season! We work on perfecting our tricks and making sure we’re ready for an unforgettable guest experience once the new season kicks off.

Open Daily in March

Although the basis of our show remains the same, we’re always looking for new ways to entertain our guests and ensure each and every person who visits us has a memorable experience. There are plenty of opportunities to visit us in March, making us the perfect late winter or spring break destination for guests of all ages.
