Showboat Branson Belle Dinner Cruise

The Showboat Branson Belle Dinner Cruise is the most entertaining way to spend time on the lake, and it’s a lake adventure that comes with an exciting variety show, one that’s filled with music, comedy, dancing, magic, a sensational meal, and even more!  Both noon and evening cruise guests will be treated to a wide range of music, including songs from the 1960s to the big hits of today, as well as your favorite soundtracks from mega movie classics like Risky Business, Ghostbusters, and Titanic. There’s also a phenomenal live band that backs up the show’s incredible singers, along with the Showboat Dancers, who offer a brilliant display of rhythm and fancy footwork that makes them deserving of a show all by themselves!  (Scroll down for information on Showboat Branson Belle's Christmas Cruise.)

Sporting the nostalgic appearance of a yesteryear river boat, the Showboat Branson Belle offers a wonderful experience all on its own. Appearing much like the kind of vessels that were once plentiful along the Mississippi, this 1890s style paddle wheeler makes for a majestic site on beautiful Table Rock Lake.  In addition to an incomparable show, guests aboard the enormous 700-passenger Showboat have the opportunity to truly appreciate this incredible jewel of a lake with the boat’s 360-degree views and multi-level decks. Take in the gorgeous landscape of the lake and the Ozarks hills that surround it; feel free to explore the three upper decks of the ship, and visit with the Captain in his pilot-house, one that features a six-foot vintage captain’s wheel.  

Your Showboat experience will include a delicious meal, prepared right there in the ship’s galley and served in the ship’s atrium-style dining theater prior to settling in for the show.  The culinary part of your lake adventure aboard the ship offers several options.
