40th Anniversary Addition

Back Porch Stage was an outdoor venue located in the park's Texas section near the entrance to Yosemite Sam & the Gold River Adventure. The venue debuted in 2001 during the park’s 40th anniversary season and has featured a handful of live entertainment options since. Though park-created productions hadn’t been showcased in later seasons, local bands could be found performing occasionally. Back Porch Stage was demolished in November, 2021.
