Disney World is changing in some MAJOR ways.
Cinderella Castle
Magic Kingdom is seeing some huge updates, especially — we’ve been keeping up with all of the construction progress on the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure transformation, but that’s not all! Last year, Disney announced that another iconic Magic Kingdom attraction would be getting an update, and that time has almost come.
Country Bear Jamboree is changing in a huge way in Magic Kingdom! Disney Imagineers are updating the show with “an all-new act.” The bears are going to be singing Disney songs in NEW styles, like pop-country, rockabilly, and bluegrass!
Country Bear Jamboree
The show will close on January 27th, 2024, for refurbishment, and it’ll reopen with the updated show THIS SUMMER, 2024.

I know Country Bear Jamboree is a bit corny and some would say outdated, but it remains a nostalgic favorite of mine – it was one of my Dad’s favorite attractions to see when we would go as a family in the 1970s and even 1980s. I hope they keep Max and Buff!!
We hit the Country Bear Jamboree twice yesterday as a fond farewell to one of the original Disney attractions. It’s possible that they will be able to keep the same down-home feel of the show as long as they don’t try to be too current-pop-culture. We are keeping an open mind and hoping we can develop the same fondness for the new show as we had for the old. (We’ll miss the song about little Buford – and what happens to Big Al’s solo?)
