Explore Unique Nightlife & Entertainment in Orlando
You never know where the night will take you in Orlando. Live music, high-energy dance clubs, sleek lounges, side-splitting comedy and other options are all part of our brilliant nightlife, as are world-famous events such as November’s Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) Orlando. And no matter where you choose to stay in Orlando, you’ll find a vibrant, walkable entertainment district close by with a distinct and eclectic collection of nightlife venues
Disney Springs®
Offering entertainment, dining and shopping in one walkable district, Disney Springs keeps the party going long after theme parks at Walt Disney World® Resort close for the night. One of its most unique options is The Edison, a steampunk-influenced restaurant, bar and nightlife hotspot with evening entertainment — including burlesque dancers on weekends!

You can also enjoy live entertainment at House of Blues, Paradiso 37 and other venues — not to mention the all-new Drawn to Life Presented by Cirque du Soleil and Disney stage show. And for a lounge experience straight from the silver screen, check out Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar, which is based on the blockbuster Indiana Jones movies.
Universal CityWalk
Serving as the gateway to the three theme parks at Universal Orlando Resort, Universal CityWalk is home to one of Orlando’s best concert venues, Hard Rock Live® Orlando. The all-in-one dining, entertainment and retail hub also has other ways to have fun after dark.
