Highway 76 — 76 Country Boulevard — is Branson's main street: the theater row, the attractions, the traffic. This page is the orientation layer, built from one channel's systematic drives of the boulevard, because nobody films the Strip itself more thoroughly than FindUsHere.

How to actually drive it

The driving guide leads: Branson's color-coded relief routes — the blue and yellow routes paralleling the Strip — the connector roads between them, and exactly where each one surfaces on 76. Arriving on US-65: right for downtown, left for the Strip. Watch this one before your first Branson drive.

The change log

Two annual editions read the boulevard like a census: the 2026 conditions report (west end at Shepherd of the Hills Expressway through Historic Downtown, theater by theater — what's new, what's changed, what's still here) and the summer-2025 edition, turning onto 76 past Fritz's Adventure and Dolly Parton's Stampede. A west-to-east drive with theater history runs the row in reverse.
