    Love Hoop Dee Doo Revue. When I visited in 2016 and trying to find something different for one of our dining experiences this was one of our options and I’m so glad my brother and I went with it, had so much fun, the food was wonderful and was one of those moments that has stayed with me.

    It’s probably on-hold until disney can find a way to further monetize it and cut more costs. It remains sad to watch the park’s decline accelerate.

      Worse, they’re using the “ongoing pandemic” as a cover up. Other theme parks, if they haven’t fully reinstated their entertainment and service, have done so to a greater extent than Disney.

    At this point, the “ongoing pandemic” is just a convenient excuse.

    Never even knew it existed. Usually dart right past the shops in frontier land en route to splash and big thunder. If all rides had a proper virtual queue system, guests might have more time to spend checking out these side attractions. As long as we’re forced to stand in hour long lines, we’ll never have time to truly enjoy most of these little gems.

      Randy, you never saw it because it’s not in Frontier Land. It’s in Fort Wildernress. 🙂

      It’s not in any of the parks, Hoop-de-doo is a dinner show located out in the sticks of Fort Wilderness, the campground extension of Wilderness Lodge. It’s pretty silly but high energy with lots of singing and dancing and jokes and some audience participation. The food is fried chicken and barbecued ribs and sides.

    My family has a week-long trip planned for WDW and Hoop-dee-doo is much anticipated.

    How did the Cruella de Villes take over Disney’s decision making?

    C’mon Chapek, my family and I need to experience some Hoop-Dee-Doo after having our reservation cancelled in 2020!

  9. Lisa

    Please bring back

  10. Sharon

    We are going in May and we’re really hoping it would reopen by then!

  11. Cecelia

    I would love for Hoop Dee Doo to be back by our November trip!!

  12. Jennifer

    It’s how we start every trip. It is so much fun and makes you laugh and the perfect way to set the mood for being at Disney. I really don’t want to go back there until it is open again.

  13. Christina

    We will be there in December and we ALWAYS go to the Hoop De Doo Dinner Show. So, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE open back up!!

    The Hoop-Dee-Doo has been a staple for our family for almost every visit. We come from out of state twice a year, but since the pandemic it has not been the same. Some parts have opened back up recently, but others have not. We will be making another two-week visit in late April and are hold out hope that the Hoop-Dee-Doo will re-open for this trip…. If not, and if the character dining and other experiences like that are still not back up to par, then I would assume that we would not visit again until everything has re-opened. This will be our fourth visit since the pandemic, and while they have opened a few things here and there, many parts of the vacation just have not been the same.

  15. We’re going back to WDW in September. I’m taking my granddaughter, age 9. She has seen Hoop de Doo review three times. We were hoping to make it four times. Hopefully, Disney will get their act together soon!

    The shows always sold out ever since opening. Why would Disney not bring back now. Come on Disney!! Follow CDC guidelines and bring back the fun!

  17. Nana

    I so hope it returns by this summer! My grandchildren have this experience as one of their favorite memories.

  18. Gail

    Been to Hoop de Doo 4 times and hoping to go again on our next Disney trip in a few weeks.
    Please bring back the great show and delicious food!
