Still Worried About the Weather?
Don’t sweat – the Medora Musical has you taken care of.
The show goes on through most North Dakota weather, but guest and staff safety comes first. If weather forces us to stop a show before the one-hour mark, it’s considered a rainout. You’ll get two free vouchers for every full-price ticket to use this season or next.
We don’t typically cancel before 7:30 pm because conditions can change fast! If the show is canceled, we’ll email you with next steps for vouchers or exchanges. For additional help, stop by the Welcome Center, Ticket Junction, or your hotel front desk.
