With all of the shows and attractions in Branson, who needs Broadway? While Southwest Missouri may sound like an odd location for such a rich musical heritage, Branson has grown to one of the best cities for live performance in America. With nearly 50 theaters and over 100 shows, this city is THE destination for music lovers. While Branson’s reputation signifies its importance in the country music scene, you can pick up Branson show tickets to performances of any variety. From rock and roll to Broadway productions and magic shows, the live theaters and concert halls in Branson entertain over seven million visitors every year.

Performances run throughout the day, from sunrise to sunset. With an early morning breakfast show at the White House Theater and a late night performance at Dick Clark’s American Bandstand Theater, you can wake up and go to bed with music!

Family Values

The biggest appeal of Branson is its family-themed atmosphere. While you can find the same level of talent that exists in Las Vegas, you won’t find the same mature subject matter. All of the Branson Missouri shows are appropriate for anyone, regardless of age.

Who Has Played in Branson?

The real question is “who hasn’t played in Branson?” Legendary country singers Johnny Cash and Kenny Rogers both had theaters in Branson and superstar Wayne Newton plays numerous shows in Branson every year at his very own Talk of the Town Theater. On any given night, Branson, Missouri shows feature some of the most respected talent in the music business.

How Much Do Branson Show Tickets Cost?

While some ticket prices to shows in large pavilions across America have soared to astronomical rates, don’t expect to have to break the bank to afford Branson show tickets. Even the most popular shows cost under $60, and many Branson, Missouri vacation packages offer discounts when you pair your hotel stay with one or more concerts or show productions. Taking kids to the show, too? All children’s tickets are cheaper than regular price adult admission, and many shows offer free tickets to children 12 years old and younger. Because these shows are affordable, you can see more and do more while you are on vacation.

Themed Shows

Whether it’s a holiday performance or a celebration of one of music’s biggest bands, many Branson Missouri shows feature some of your favorite music. You can check out the Loretta Lynn Tribute Show at the Owens Theater or even The Liverpool Legends at Starlite Entertainment Theater, the latter of which includes all the Beatles’ classic material. If you are visiting during the holiday season, The Grand Palace Theater features the classic Christmas Music of Mannheim Steamroller.

As you can see from this brief introduction to Branson’s music scene, a Branson Missouri vacation combines family fun with incredible music for what will undoubtedly be one of your most memorable vacations. Check out the full list of shows in Branson, and be sure to see some of these can’t-miss performances while you visit the Music Capital of the Midwest!
