An evening stroll along Disney's BoardWalk may recall golden days
at the seashore when families and couples flocked to the boardwalk
for innocent summertime fun. Jugglers, comedians, magicians, musical
groups and food vendors combine to create the atmosphere of an old-time
boardwalk in its heydey.
But a step off the boardwalk welcomes vacationers to an expanded
array of lively entertainment options, which include dancing to
the rhythms of upbeat pop music and Latin show bands, joining in
a rowdy chorus at a dueling piano bar or cheering a favorite sports
team to victory.
Atlantic
Dance
Guests can dance the night away to the sounds of a variety of music
at Atlantic Dance located along Disney's BoardWalk.
Atlantic Dance Hall at Disney’s BoardWalk has changed its format
and now has Video DJ nights on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday nights.
Thursday and Friday nights are DJ only nights, playing a mix of
today's top hits.
Atlantic Dance Hall is open Tuesday-Saturday from 9 p.m.-2 a.m.
for guests ages 21 and over. Admission is free.
Jellyrolls
Singing and drinking to the banter of dueling pianos welcome the
party crowd to Jellyrolls, the lively piano bar located along the
boardwalk.
A main attraction within this rustic, saloon-like club is the crowd
itself. Here, people of all ages join together in song as quick-witted
pianists bang out old-time favorite singalongs. Jellyrolls is a
foot-stomping, sing-along kind of place with lots of uproarious
laughter and fun.
A visit to Jellyrolls for a birthday, anniversary or engagement
may get you on stage for a rambunctious and satirical serenade created
especially for you.
Jellyrolls welcomes those 21 years and older, with a $7 cover charge
after 7 p.m.
ESPN Club
No matter what season, catch the best games in all the top sports
every day at ESPN Club, the sports broadcast and entertainment facility
and full-service restaurant anchoring Disney's BoardWalk.
No score or play will be missed with more than 90 monitors and
a 10x10 video projection wall filling the 13,000-square-foot sports
club, including televisions in both men's and women's bathrooms.
ESPN Club is divided into three distinct areas designed to appeal
to sports enthusiasts as well as families.
Kids and adults will be sure to flock to The Yard, an "urban playground"
with an arcade of sports games, the latest in virtual reality and
interactive arcade games.
The main dining area is Sports Central, themed to look like a sports
arena with a basketball hardwood floor and giant four-sided scoreboard
projecting the big game of the day.
Sports Central also houses broadcast-ready facilities, including
a television and radio broadcast booth where guests can periodically
observe and participate in live sports celebrity interviews. Additionally,
ESPN Club has originated live shows such as "Baseball Tonight,"
"Up Close," and "Sunday Sports Reporters," as well as local and
national sports radio segments.
Ballpark fare served from 11:30 a.m. to 2 a.m. includes entrees
like Sideline Fries, Nachos, Red Wings and "Boo Yeah Chili." A Little
League menu for kids includes hot dogs, macaroni and cheese, chicken
fingers and mini burgers.
Disney's own sports experts will get the crowd roaring with ongoing
sports-trivia contests, pre-game "pep rallies," a half-time set
and post-game commentaries. Sports hosts also will referee "Sports
Talk Live," during which current sports issues are discussed in
a talk-show setting, sometimes with the major stars in the sporting
world.
Sidelines features booths and tall tables where guests can watch
games displayed on overhead monitors and tune in to the competition
of their choice. Computer monitors allow fans access to ESPN.com
and sports-trivia games.
