| | Went to the Xmas show tonight. I would rate it good but not fantastic. It is a rather inconrgous mix of horsemanship and holiday schmaltz, including a live nativity scene with wise men on camels, shepherds with real sheep, goats and donkeys and a silver clad angel suspended from the ceiling on wires!! There were a number of set Christmassy pieces including Santa on his sleigh, ice skating in the snow and a rather unfunny clowm with reindeer antlers on his head. It didnt really fit in well with the North versus South theme though so it was a bit "bitty". No buffalo though we did get racing pigs, chickens and ostriches and lots of horses!! Best part was a really good half hour pre show with a comedy juggler who was excellent. Food was typical dinner show fare to be eaten with the fingers and drinks were served in jam jars. Free tea, coffee and pepsi, additional drinks $4 zerved in a souvenir boot ( but note it is "dry".) | Julie | Edited by - esprit on 15 Dec 2003 05:11:29 | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| | I agree, this is great for family holiday atmosphere, but I wouldn't go again! I was there xmas eve, and I found the whole thing a little cheesy! The ice'skating was fab though! If I heard the compere sing 'holly jolly xmas' one more time I thought I was going to scream! | Tink | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| | Cheesey is the word I was trying to think of, Tink!!!! And the bad news is......... they have retained the Xmas show until the third week of January. Now what is worse than a cheesy Christmas show at Christmas? I know. a cheesy Christmas show half way through January!! | Julie | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| We went to Dixie Stampede when out there in June. We only seen 20 minutes of the show. My daughter who is three coughed from the moment we arrived. She doesn't suffer with asthma but we had to leave as she was sweating and distressed.
I don't think it's advisable to take little ones here or anyone who suffers with chest or breathing problems. When we were outside a helpful security guard came to see if everything was ok he asked if we'd seen the warning signs inside, which we hadn't, he also said people are taken away in ambulances on a daily basis.
