Mater's Junkyard Jamboree
While the residents of Cars Land were getting ready for the big race, Mater set up a square dance in his junkyard, building a giant makeshift jukebox out of spare parts like car radios and horns. The music attracted a herd of baby tractors, and Mater taught them to square dance. Riders spin and swing along in trailers pulled by the tractors while square dance music plays.

At this location: The space used for Mater's Junkyard Jamboree was originally Bountiful Valley Farm, a section of the park dedicated to highlighting the agricultural production of California. The area was eventually given a light retheming and incorporated into "a bug's land" but still with the name Bountiful Valley Farms and that is how things remained until the area was closed in 2010 for construction of Mater's Junkyard Jamboree and the Cars Land entrance.
