CityWalk Orlando Updates & Changes General Thread

I certainly hope so, I know I'm not the only one who feels that if they're going to make a tease like that, it would be really nice if they went through with it! That and I have a UCM shirt from Cryptiguz, so I've got the right attire for it!

Zombie dance party

I'm interested to see what they could possibly put there.

Also somehow I totally missed that Red Coconut closed. Do any of the clubs remain?

Rising Star is about it.

The plot thickens for Dead Coconut Club!

dang. Putting a lot of effort into this, maybe it might turn out to be a permanent addition if it is successful.

Strange things are afoot at Island Market, which is right next door...

What a genius way to get people up there

Honestly, a Monster bar sounds like a fun concept for CityWalk

Hopefully this is a tester

I would love a legit monsters bar. Great use of IP and goes after the Trader Sam's crowd.

Trader Sam's was exactly where my mind was at with this

Well... looks like a monstrous club to me...

Signage is what it is given the (presumably) temporary build. Love the art, though.

Kind of unclear what the ultimate function of this space will be and whether it will be successful. If it's just another bar with some light HHN theming, like the Cabana Bay bar, I imagine it could get some light traffic from people headed into the event. Unless there is something especially spectacular about the venue, I can't see it being a destination unto itself.

I'm surprised they didn't rig up a "D" for the sign. Wouldn't be that hard to add in light plastic?

 

[GAcoaster]

Wonder if some of the Monsters Cafe props are being used?

I'm certain its primary function is to sell mugs (and booze). I am curious what it's hours will be. Secondary function may be to soak up a little bit of the crowd mid-event -- get them to take a break there, maybe they even grab some food in CityWalk, spread that mid-evening rush out a little.

That said I could see this becoming the "new Finns" if the theming is on-point and they open the entire club. Remember HHN is the closest thing Orlando has to DisneyLand in that it's a place for locals to hang out.

All the bars around it will close at 1ish (rising star 1:15). If I had to guess this’ll probably be 4pm-1am

I only just yesterday realized how few Citywalk venues are open for lunch. My only options seemed to be Cowfish, Toothsome, Margaritaville, Hard Rock, and the quick serves.

Would love if this place offered an option pre Stay and Scream, but alas.

If it's not a bar, maybe a Monsters meet and greet/photo op area?

Id be stunned if it’s anything other than a bar. Probably a bar with photo ops in it.

I’d guess some fancy cocktails and a DJ. Or maybe band/dj rotation.
