Velvet Sessions at the Hard Rock Hotel Orlando

If you are looking for a fun way to bring in the weekend a little earlier on Thursday evenings, look no further than the Universal Orlando Resort. And no, we are not speaking of all of the fun you can have at CityWalk – although you can continue there afterwards – but rather of Velvet Sessions, a party that takes place the last Thursday of each month at Universal’s Hard Rock Hotel, one of the three resorts that are located on the property of Universal and just steps away from the all of the fun of Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure.

Once you have your vacation tickets purchased, it’s time to start planning everything else to do on vacation. If you happen to find yourself in Orlando during the last week of each month (excluding November and December), then head on over to the Hard Rock Hotel at Universal for their Velvet Sessions, as we mentioned above. This hotel is all about rock ‘n’ roll, from the memorabilia located throughout the hotel to the tunes that are even playing underwater in the pool outside! But, if you aren’t fortunate enough to be staying here, you can still enjoy one of these self-proclaimed “rock ‘n’ roll cocktail parties.” Located at the hotel’s Velvet Bar and Lobby Lounge, each session includes a creative cocktail made just for the occasion along with hit live music from one of the nation’s top rock bands.

Admission to Velvet Sessions is , which includes free drinks, warm-up tunes and finger foods beginning at 6:30 p.m. A cash bar is available at 8:00 p.m. onwards, and the band will also begin playing around that time as well. Past performers at Velvet Sessions include Joan Jett, The Romantics, Eddie Money, The Tubes, The Fixx, ABC, Foreigner and more! To see a band like this live in person and to experience a Velvet Session for yourself, all you need is an invitation, as all of these events are invite-only due to space limitations. To secure your invitation, just fill out the request form on either Universal or the Hard Rock Hotel’s web sites and wait for your opportunity to enjoy one of Orlando’s hottest parties!
