Disney previously announced that the revamped show, which will feature some significant updates, would be opening in the summer of 2024. But now we know exactly when you’ll need to be in the park to catch this updated Magic Kingdom attraction.

The NEW Country Bear Jamboree show will officially open on July 17th!

If you have a ticket type that still requires Park Pass reservations (a ticket that is not a date-based ticket — like an Annual Pass), be sure to grab those Park Pass reservations ASAP for the show’s opening date!

So what kind of changes can we expect? Well, the bears will be learning an “all-new act” where they’ll sing Disney songs in new styles like pop-country, rockabilly, and bluegrass. You’ll even get to hear a version of “Bare Necessities” in rockabilly style.

The show will also be inspired heavily by the Opry-style shows found in Nashville, Tennessee. In fact, Nashville artists are involved in the new song arrangements. Big fans of the original show will want to pay close attention as there will be easter eggs throughout the new production that nod to the older show.
