The
Downtown Disney® Area is set up into three major components – the Marketplace, the West Side and Pleasure Island. And while all three areas have a lot of the same assets – restaurants, attractions and merchandise locations – the
Downtown Disney® West Side in particular hangs its hat on its vast amount of entertainment options. From live music to endless hours of virtual fun, Broadway-worthy shows and the latest flicks to hit the silver screen, the
Downtown Disney® West Side has four major entertainment venues that draw large crowds of guests to the area every day of the year.
Perhaps the largest entertainment venue at the
Downtown Disney® West Side is the
DisneyQuest® Indoor Interactive Theme Park. This action-packed playground, located at the
Downtown Disney® West Side, is a 100,000-square foot pavilion that hosts state-of-the-art games that feature the latest in technology, virtual reality and 3-D experiences, all with a Disney twist! With multiple levels and four fun zones – the Explore Zone, the Score Zone, the Create Zone and the Replay Zone, families can try a unique method to having fun at the
Walt Disney World® Resort!
Next door to the DisneyQuest Indoor Interactive Theme Park is
Cirque du Soleil’s La Nouba. One of 15 resident Cirque du Soleil shows, La Nouba has a permanent home at the
Downtown Disney® West Side, and its popularity over the years has remained steady due to its unique take on entertainment that mixes the atmosphere of a circus with the art of storytelling.
Located across from La Nouba, the
House of Blues is another venue that hosts live performances for guests throughout the week. This multi-faceted establishment is known as being one of the top live music venues to play in around the Central Florida area, and the intimate setting for the top billing acts, along with the live acoustic performances outside each night, make this one of the top hot spots at
Downtown Disney® Area year-round!
Finally, the
AMC Pleasure Island 24 Theatres Complex rounds out the entertainment options at the
Downtown Disney® West Side. This massive theatre may appear on the outside to look like all the rest, but the inside is a different story. The complex’s loveseat-style stadium seating allows for comfortable seats and optimal views, while the THX Surround Sound and Sony Dynamic Digital Sound in all 24 theatres provides guests top-notch viewing capabilities.
Whether you are visiting the
Downtown Disney® West Side for a full day of entertainment, an afternoon of fun or an adults-only night activity, this area is a great place to sample one of the best collections of entertainment options on the
Walt Disney World® Resort property!
