Premise
This Winnipeg-produced series was initially broadcast as a local production. In June 1965, it was carried nationally on CBC to fill in the time slot between seasons of Country Hoedown.

Episodes were dedicated to a particular western theme such as fur trading, homesteading, how Saturday nights are observed, and the demise of buffalo herds. Music was combined with stories and segments such as film of a historic ranch.

Stu Davis initially hosted Red River Jamboree during the first national broadcasts. Country musician Stu Phillips became host in October 1960 when the series was renewed for its first complete season. Reg Gibson hosted the final episodes of the series after Phillips left for an American-syndicated series, Country A Go Go. Featured artists included the Selkirk Settlers band, the Altones quartet, and dance troupe Valley Beaux and Belles.
