Character Meets at Frontierland Jamboree

[8lovesmickey]

Hmmm this post is incorrect!

There are no chairs. It is all benches. The benches probably seat 4 or 5 across. None of the benches are connected to other benches.

Beyond the benches as you FIRST walk in to the "Roundup" you will see the picnic tables with umbrellas attached! There are maybe 10 picnic tables! (We just all sat at one.)

Then you will see all the benches that are close to the Stage!

Again none are attached! You could easily move them around if you want!


HTH!!!!

Thanks for correcting me. I do have to disagree with some of this, though-I was there four weeks ago and sat in a chair in the second row. My chair was interconnected to chairs on either side of me and at least the first six rows were like that. One family near me tried to adjust their chairs and couldn't. There may have been benches in rows further back, but not in the front where we were.

Also there were no tables within view of the stage. Maybe we missed some elsewhere, but in order to see the show we had to sit in the chairs.

We did bring food in from a cart in Frontierland and had no trouble.

I think the week we were there was one of the first weeks Billy Hill was there, so maybe things were still changing. I certainly didn't mean to mislead anyone, but I really was there!

We just at here last week at the big thunder bbq (which was delicious by the way). We saw the characters enter and leave the Jamboree area - Which is right next to the little animal petting zoo they have.
We saw cowgirl Minnie and Cowboy Mickey, Cowboy Donald Duck, Cowboy Goofy, All the country bears. It was basically empy and the lines were non-existant.
We got autographs and pics with all of the ones that were there within 10 min. It worked out great becuase we were all finished eating and just kind of relaxing and enjoying the laid back atmosphere and I was able to run the kids over to get photos quick.

It looks like this was set to end Aug. 19th...does anyone know if they extended it into the fall?

Yes! I would love to know too!!

Although, isn't this where they have the pumpkin carving displays during the Halloween season? Or is that someplace else?

I would assume it to be closed during the Halloween season to make room for the pumpkins. But personally- I would prefer a quiet character interaction.

Also, at Christmas, Santa is set up as well as the "North Pole"

We were there yesterday. It was listed I thought on the times sheet for this week. I think we threw that out so can't verify.

I did complete a survey afterwards. One of the questions they asked was silly-would you tell people to make a special trip to DL for this. Great character interaction though.

GOOD DAY, EVERYONE!!!

Decided to take some pictures because I was at BILL HILL again Sunday.

I wanted to show that while I have been there at least 10x since they moved to this location … there are NO chairs with BACKS.

Also I posted pics of picnic tables WITH umbrellas and some withOUT.

This is from when we were there in July... I guess the seating arrangements change!

We were there June 30 and sat in chairs also. I believe it was BH's first week at that location...they must have done some experimenting.

Thanks for the pic -I knew I wasn't crazy :/

Yes they have changed the seating recently. I was there around July 12/13 this year and the seating for the show was individual chairs in rows... not the chairs/benches combo in the photos above.

Great entertaining FUNNY show... no crowds. We saw Chip and Dale and a couple of the Country Bear Jamboree Bears (they totally interacted with some of the audience before the show- they were great!) and Mickey showed up too! He was introduced as Chip and Dale's "boss." Very cute.
