I decided to go…read morethis year having fairly high expectations thinking that this group of creative folks have come a long way and would be putting on a seriously entertaining event. I'm sorry to say I was deeply disappointed. There was some very nice art, price was double what it would likely be elsewhere. I imagine a percentage goes to the event. I felt bad for the artists. There was not a bit of live entertainment that was well done or creative, nothing I hadn't seen years ago. The $40 ticket was crazy based on what they presented or shall I say lacked to present. There was some art I would have bought if it was price realistically. I would not go back to the Orlando event again I might try St Pete. It was an underwhelming money maker for the production company, lackluster for the guests. If I were to guess I would say they can't get high quality performance because they're not wanting to pay the performers or performers don't want to be attached to an event that is not of their caliber.

For those of you who don't want to assume, it is being literal. This is an evening full of nude art, music, body painting, and shows. This national art exhibit has been happening for the last 15 years which surprised me that there was no Yelp reviews on it yet for the Orlando area. I am a huge art enthusiast and love attending exhibits like these because they are never disappointing. This Venue, which use to be Haos on Church was very large, and had a wonderful selection of drinks, and even served food. Menu was small but all the options looked and smelt amazing. The portions are also small so recommend eating before arriving. Needless to say I fell in love with so many pieces of art, and naturally I bought something. Oh yes, most of the art is on sale. It all goes to an art charity which is used to promote art. Highly recommend attending for all art enthusiasts, and even if you're not really into art it's still a great time.

Our guide, Korben, was fantastic in telling the stories of ghosts, mysteries, and history that you wouldn't even know are right here in the city! A graveyard under a movie theatre, a college campus that was a former morgue, murders, mafia crimes, and more! This was such a unique experience and we had a great time! The tour is about 60 minutes covering 1 mile and features a few stops! Policy as of 4/26/24: "Pets are welcome as long as they do not disrupt or distract from the tour."

We attended a walking ghost tour in Orlando on a Sunday evening. For a Sunday night the restaurants, bars and clubs all seem to be operating as if it was the start of a weekend... although the on-and-off rain has reduced the "usual" crowd there were still a lot of people out, we actually walked to some shady parts of DTO which was more scary than the ghost stories... but wait, I'm still getting started with the actual ghost tour. Our meeting place was outside the Orange County Regional History Center in Downtown Orlando. We did a lot of walking so wear comfy shoes. Our guide talked about haunted buildings focusing on: 1- The Beacham - a ghost of an old woman is seen somewhere near the stage, always accompanied by drastic temperature drops. 2- The Cheyenne Saloon is one of the most popular venues in Orlando, but it has a spooky past... 3- Church Street 4- Ceviche - guests will see an out-of-place woman dressed in 19th century garb, standing behind them in the reflection 5- Hamburger Mary's Bar and Grille, originally a hardware store. Apparition of a young girl dressed in Victorian clothing 6- Kress Building - Kres Chophouse is considered to be a paranormal hot-spot by Central Florida ghost hunters 7- St James Catholic Cathedral - they even conduct their own ghost tour inside 8- Orange County Regional History Center - we learned about one of America's most prolific serial killers, Ted Bundy. The building was the location of Bundy's murder trial in 1979 My daughter purchased the Bonus Extended Tour Upgrade which was up to 4 additional haunted locations. These were all interesting and cool. Thank you to our tour guide, Tabitha.) Review #2781

The Japanese Rock Garden along Lake Eola contains a 12.5 ton and 19,5 foot long piece of black marble donated by Su-Nan Chong, Mayor of Tainan, Taiwan. The rock was given in 1983 as a gift of friendship between the sister cities of Tainan and Orlando. The marble is said to have been discovered in the mountains in Hua-Lien at an altitude of 1,600 meters and was sculpted by wind over 10,000 years. The Mayor requested the following to be inscribed on the stone. "Loyal To Country Filial To Parents." When the rock was delivered Orlando it was requested to be placed "in your great Walt Disney World". Disney World however is not in Orlando and Disney declined the gift leaving Orlando to figure out what to do with it. While waiting for permanent placement it was called the Mayor's pet rock. When Lake Eola Park was renovated in 1988, the Japanese Rock Garden was created and the rock finally had a home. Today you can see the famous rock and take pictures on the pretty bridge. The story of the marble has become a quirky part of Lake Eola history.

This escape room is located in Downtown Orlando, so you will likely need to pay to park. It's located up a steep flight of stairs, so accessibility may be an issue. There's a waiting area with a couple of couches and some small warm up games if you have a few minutes to kill before your game starts, as well as a bathroom if needed. Overall, it's a small space but the escape rooms really make the most of the area. Our game master, Rule, was very helpful and made our experience even more enjoyable. Our favorite of the two rooms we played was Haunted Hotel, and we're looking forward to coming back to play Mountain Top.

As we got close to the district we realized that this wasn't just a small event considering many streets were shut down and policed. We had to park a couple blocks away and walk. We originally made a plan to make a quick stop, check out the local goods, and maybe go to a mall after, but after arriving we realized that it wasn't going to be short. We started at sideward brewing, grabbed some drinks and made our way across the mart. This massive mart had 300 local vendors, water at every quadrant with live music, food tents/trucks, and beer tents. We found a few custom items to buy which were incredible. Only took us three hours and 3 beers to get through the whole thing. Overall, this was so much more than I anticipated, in a good way. This little community has such a good vibe, with good food, and good people. It's so great to see an event of this magnitude come together every quarter to share its hospitality. Can't wait till the next one to see what they have to offer.
