Here's my review of the "Salute to the Golden Horseshoe Revue"... The show is 20-25 minutes in length and features a live band, 5 singers, and 3 dancers. The show is very entertaining and is interactive with the audience and will have you laughing. The costumes are great and take you back in time. I am a big fan of the show that I remember from the 80's and early 90's as it was a staple of every DL visit for my family. I must admit that walking in I was expecting to see that show again and I didn't. This truly is a "salute" rather than the same show. The song choices are fun and the time passes quickly- you don't realize how long it's been. Now a review of the AP Dinner- I was not a fan of the food choices. During the non AP shows there is a menu that you can order from (see my earlier post about the Limited Time Magic Menu). For the AP shows there is a set meal: roast beef sandwich, ham sandwich, fruit salad, carrot salad, potato salad, corn chips, and mint julep (you can see my earlier posts for more food details). If you don't like mint juleps, you can ask for water. Then dessert is a cake inspired by Walt and Lilly's 30th anniversary cake. Overall I didn't hear fantastic statements about the food. The people I was sitting with thought it was ok. AP commemorative keepsakes are a plastic boot shaped container that has the corn chips inside and a CD with the original songs from the original show. Overall the show is definitely worth seeing if you can, but I don't think the AP show is worth the money.

Thanks for the review! - Gia  785.4 #119 11:51PM
Thanks for the great review. Couple of questions though....how much is the AP dinner? Is the show itself free? - TicTocCroc  233.3 #1194 11:52PM
There are multiple shows throughout the day that are free. The last show at 6:30 is for APs only and costs $35 and you have to make reservations prior to the day of the show I think (not sure if reservations for the AP show can be made day of or not). You must pay to attend the AP show. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 11:58PM
Awesome thanks for the info!! - TicTocCroc  233.3 #1194 12:01AM
Thanks. I was thinking about the AP show but now i probably won't. Thanks for saving me some money - Murryd  291.1 #663 11:56PM
Oh wow I totally thought the only people who could watch this show were AP's who paid the 35 bucks. I didn't know they were showing it throughout the day so everyone could see. Now paying the 35 just seems silly. - ScubaSteve028  807.6 #114 12:02AM
There's 5 shows starting at 11:30 and the last one is 5:15. The AP one is a different meal and you get to keep the plastic boot and a CD. The reservations for the non AP shows can fill up quick but there is a standby Ε‚ine for each show. If you can get reservations prior to a show that's recommended. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 12:09AM
Is that an individual size cake? It's so cute! - cynDOLEwhip  744.1 #137 12:21AM
Yes. The cake is individual size. The AP dinner is pre packaged for easy delivery. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 6:54AM

Good details. Thanks! - Tom  3846.8 #7 7:28AM
Thanks for your awesome review! So, do you make non-AP show reservations right there at the Golden Horseshoe? Can you do that right when the park opens? Or do you have to do it closer to the show time? Thanks so much for all your great info and wonderful pix and video! I've enjoyed it all! Can't wait for Feb1st! - meridafan  1035.1 #83 7:46AM
For the non AP shows you make reservations at the Golden Horseshoe the day of. I would recommend making reservations as early as possible as the shows tend to fill up. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 9:11AM
Thanks for the tip! - lmirallegro  263.7 #880 8:23AM
Great review! I'll try my best to catch this show on my next visit. - rbeezy  653.6 #160 8:36AM
thank you for this review! - OhanaPhoto  1414.1 #56 9:56AM
Your review is perfect! - snowwannab  354.9 #403 10:04AM
Thanks. I didn't want to give anything away or discourage people from the AP showing but wanted to give my honest opinion. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 10:06AM
It is great. I agree with all of it. Thanks for the review. - snowwannab  354.9 #403 11:10AM
Thanks for the great review; very helpful. Now I won't feel so bad if we don't make the AP show - fvbmermaid  214.0 #1430 10:05AM
Thanks so much for this review!! Really appreciate it, I loved this show so much as a child. We'd always go as a family too! 😊 - MinnieMousewife  570.2 #194 10:06AM
Great job on this review, thanks for posting! - Admin 10:24AM
Thanks. I hope that others share their thoughts too. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 1:02PM
Thanks for the review! I wonder if there is an AP discount for the food during the free shows - lizzie2thelou  28.3 #4459 10:27AM
My guess is yes because I got my AP discount when I bought the food at the Stage Door Cafe. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 10:37AM
Thanks so much for this!! I was trying to figure out if its worth the price or not, and your reviews helped A LOT! πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘ - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.0 #22 10:46AM
I'm glad this helped. I'll definitely try to catch the show again but when the on Ap menu is available. - LilSterner  2656.0 #17 3:34PM
Fabulous info! - Duchess_SMK  3269.3 #11 11:05AM
So nice meeting you last night! πŸ˜„ - CM_LionGeek  340.3 #430 12:42PM
