Universal Nights just grew from two dates to five at Epic Universe—a low-capacity, after-hours run of all five worlds from 9 p.m. to midnight, with tickets from $179.99 and 10% off for passholders. October 17 has already sold out, leaving just four dates on sale (Oct 3, Oct 24, Nov 6, Nov 20).

Disney's BoardWalk debuts Hurly-Burly on October 1—a walk-up-only lounge built inside a nearly century-old vaudeville theater. Family trivia and games by day, a 21-and-over live-music room after 9 p.m., plus a to-go window for cocktails and cold brew. The real headline for planners: no reservations—none are even offered.

Heading to EPCOT this fall? Our hour-by-hour plan loops the park in a single direction—rope-drop the World Discovery headliners first, then walk World Showcase pavilion by pavilion and finish at Luminous. No zig-zagging, no burning daylight retracing your own steps.
