New at Disney's BoardWalk: Hurly-Burly Opens October 1

Disney's BoardWalk is getting a new place to eat, play and enjoy live entertainment this fall.

**Hurly-Burly opens October 1, 2026**, bringing shareable bites, specialty drinks, daytime games and nighttime live music to the waterfront entertainment district.

During the day, Hurly-Burly welcomes the whole family with games and activities led by an entertainment host. Beginning at **9 PM**, the venue becomes **21+** and shifts into an adults-only evening experience with live musical acts.

Shareable Bites and Specialty Drinks

The menu focuses on shareable appetizers and small plates inspired by Italian-American favorites and classic boardwalk fare.

Options include **Meatballs in Tomato Gravy, Antipasto, Tomato Pie, Oven-Roasted Shrimp, Roast Beef Sliders** and **Mini Apple Cider Doughnuts**.

There are also specialty cocktails, wine and beer for adults, along with nonalcoholic choices such as the **Overture in Orange** frozen drink and **Caramel Corn Cold Brew**.

Hurly-Burly is **walk-up only**, so reservations are not required.

Why We Think Families May Like This One

For families staying in the EPCOT resort area, Hurly-Burly could be an easy addition to a BoardWalk afternoon or evening.

It's also a short walk from EPCOT, which makes it a nice option if you want to step out of the park for a little while without committing to a full sit-down dining reservation.

The walk-up format is especially appealing for families who want something more spontaneous, and the shareable menu could make it easy for everyone to try a few different things.

This also feels like the kind of addition that could work really well on a slower resort day when you want something fun to do without adding another park day or a heavily scheduled meal.

Just remember the biggest planning detail: **families with children will need to visit before 9 PM**, when Hurly-Burly becomes limited to guests ages 21 and older.
