ICON Orlando is now The Wheel, and we have details on this and other upgrades at the renamed ICON Park® entertainment complex.
One of Orlando’s most recognizable landmarks, the 400-foot-tall observation wheel formerly known as ICON Orlando has rebranded as The Wheel, with the ICON Orlando 360 complex transforming into ICON Park®. Here’s a look at these changes and reasons to visit the International Drive retail, dining and entertainment hub, including the Justice League at Madame Tussauds Orlando and more!

New Features at ICON Park
In addition to the new branding, the building that houses ticket queues for The Wheel, Madame Tussauds Orlando and SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium is now known as The Wheelhouse. ICON Park has also added a food hall and is set to welcome two new restaurants by summer 2019. The restaurants include Ox Grill, which serves contemporary cuisine including steaks, pastas and international dishes, and Mikado, a revolving sushi and hot pot concept.
“Our focus is on creating new, unique experiences that will make ICON Park even more enjoyable for first-time and returning guests,” says Chris Jaskiewicz, ICON Park CEO.
The food hall, Wheelhouse Market, is located near The Wheelhouse’s ticket queues. It offers authentically prepared, globally inspired fare, including andouille sausage with bangers and mash, giant Bavarian pretzels, a variety of healthy acai bowls, made-to-order pizza and pasta, Latin-inspired fare, and desserts, with craft beer selections coming soon.
