Seriously GOOD VIBES here!!! First timers and our entire familys' expectations were highly exceeded for the duration... nobody wanted it to end! Something for everyone too. We all enjoyed the engaging atmosphere of infectious energy, laughter, various musical talents and fun hearted enthusiasm that the amazing HAYGOOD family offered. The show takes great creative pride in all details from performance to effects and even audience participation. The kids were "fanning out" and thrilled! Actually, not just the kids;) Next time we'll definitely get up front seating. DON'T MISS THIS SHOW! This Minneapolis, Minnesota family is road tripping with the CDs now:)

The variety of music was amazing, and so was the whole show, but the patriotic finale was truly once-in-a-lifetime. I absolutely LOVED Clay's tribute to all who serve, the original song by Clay and his wife Tina, and most of all the Pledge of Allegiance being recited by Clay's son, along with their wonderful story about how in his son's school, they take turns reciting the Pledge every day, and a different student gets to recite the Pledge over the intercom each day. If all schools and performers got kids this excited about faith and loving their country, this country and the whole world would be a much, much better place. God Bless Clay and the entire Cooper family. I truly can't thank you all enough.

Reviewed By bobdegae - Aurora, United States
My family which consists of my wife and I and my 3 children, 26, 20 and 18 attended the Presley's Country Jubilee in late May. We loved it. All of us. Keep in mind I drove 9 hours in a car with my kids listening to their music. None of us are Country music fans. Yet, when the vacation was over, we all agreed this was the most fun we had ever had in 5 trips to Branson, I would highly recommend going to families of all ages, Great music, awesome talent and tons of laughs worked in.

Overall Ratings

Everyone knows the name Titanic! Everyone knows Titanic struck an iceberg! And everyone knows Titanic was lost! She sat at the bottom of the ocean for 75 years before they found her in 1985. A second expedition to the wreck site went out in 1986 and that expedition was co-led by the owner of this museum. The artifacts you see throughout the ship are REAL and valued at over $4 million dollars. You'll be able to touch a growing iceberg, experience the 28 degree water, try and steer the ship and pay tribute to the 2,208 passengers and crew that were on the Titanic. You will enter as a guest and leave as a Titanic Passenger!
