Best show in Tombstone
Mar 2021 • Family
This is a great gunfight experience!
Reasonably priced, they strive for historical accuracy and it shows. The actors reenact several actual gunfights that occurred in Tombstone. All of the actors appear as genuine gunfighter down to the details of gun handling, dress, accents and manor. The small theater allows them to deliver their well rehearsed lines in natural volume and intonation. And the audience is invited up afterwards for some really great pictures!
If you only have time for one activity while visiting Tombstone, this is it.

Mixed Feelings
Dec 2020
The actors were really friendly before the show. They did allow for people to take their masks off as we were packed into the room. I would have rated it higher if we didn't sit for 12 minutes listening to a COVID/government rant before the 30 minute show started. If I would have know we would be subjected to listening to that, we would have not attended the gunfight. The show itself was fun and we enjoyed the actual show. The price of the show was well worth the money.

Super Fun, Priced Well
Jan 2021
Happened upon The Gunfight Palace first as we came into Tombstone. Priced well, the actors were super friendly and told an amazing story of the history of the town. Went with a couple of teenagers, they thought it was interesting. They welcome all ages, but the theater is a little small, so bringing a baby/small child may not be the best idea. A little loud (obviously, it's a gunfight reenactment). They did make sure to explain to the kiddos that everything they do is make-believe and no one gets hurt for real. Show lasts about 30 mins.

Most Authentic Gunfights in Tombstone
Nov 2020 • Couples
We were greeted by friendly actors in the street and welcomed warmly without COVID-19 Masks. Some shops insisted on face covers but we just skipped over them.Both sides of the Allen Street are lined with vendors and authentic buildings. We were four adults but small children didn’t see any blood during the three indoor gunfights that were played out. The description information was detailed while the plot became clear. Most people died because they were drunk and became rude/obnoxious/stupid until they caught a gun full of lead. I never felt fearful of the real Colt guns used. This place is a mecca of commerce. It felt great to stimulate their economy. “It is fun to spend money here.”

Indoor re-enactments.
Oct 2020 • Family
Great show, inside and air conditioning, and great historic re-enactments of lesser known shootouts that happened right here in Tombstone. Priced well for a 30 minute show. We loved it!

If you wear a mask to protect yourself and others - don't go here.
Oct 2020
Bought a ticket for the wife and I. When the show started the entire audience was subjected to a 15 minute anti-face mask, anti-social distance speech ("venting" as the owner put it). This is of course during the corona virus pandemic. Had I known that the owner was going to do this I wouldn't of bought the tickets - I seriously almost left within the first 5 minutes. Soo glad I stayed to watch , nothing like watching a bunch of drunk actors shoot blanks at each other while unable to tell a story. This is not a place for small children - if the children make any noises the actors stare at them in disapproval.

THE BEST Gunfight Show in Tombstone
Oct 2020
THE BEST Gunfight show in Tombstone!! You'll see 3 historical gunfights that happened in Tombstone (which are NOT the OK Corral). Educational, exciting, and fun! Indoors, air-conditioned, and an immersive 'Saloon' stage.

Amazing place, original!
Oct 2020
Had an awesome time here. Of all the gunshows in Tombstone full of people trying to hard to channel the actors from the movie, these guys had an original show and were actually recreating historic gunfights most people don't know about. It was fun, funny, and the actors were all awesome. Highly recommend this place if you're going to "The Town Too Tough To Die!"
