Summer is here, and Disney Springs is buzzing with incredible new additions! Get ready to discover exciting ways to play, unique dining, and fantastic shopping all season long.

From a massive interactive gaming world to delicious new treats, there’s so much fresh magic waiting for you.

Attention, gamers and thrill-seekers! The much-anticipated Level99 opens its doors on June 29 at Disney Springs West Side. And trust me, you’ll want to check this out.

Imagine a giant playground for adults and teens, packed with over 60 life-sized mini-games and real-world challenges. It’s a place designed to test both your physical skills and your brain power. Think dodging axes, solving tricky puzzles, and outsmarting clever challenges, all set within vibrant art installations.

This isn’t just any Level99; the Disney Springs location, nestled right next to the Drawn to Life theater by Cirque du Soleil and across from House of Blues, is their fourth and largest venue yet. It features more than 40 original art pieces, 63 Challenge Rooms, and Player-vs-Player Duels. Tickets go on sale starting June 22, so mark your calendars!

Need a breather after all that action? Level99 also has a fantastic two-story bar. Here, you’ll find handcrafted cocktails, award-winning Detroit-style pizza, wagyu burgers, and delicious snacks – all made from scratch daily – plus a great selection of rotating beers on tap.

Over in The Landing at Disney Springs, prepare your taste buds for something truly special! Gideon’s Bakehouse, a fan-favorite for cookies, is launching an exciting new concept this summer: Six Ravens.

This isn’t about cookies; Six Ravens focuses on grab-and-go hand pies. Their signature creation, called Coffyns, are house-made yeast rolls filled with savory goodness, inspired by old Medieval pastry cases. You can pair these delicious Coffyns with smashed potatoes and a choice of amazing dips like sweet heat or homemade honey mustard. These “coffyns” were originally designed to keep meals fresh for travelers, and here at Disney Springs, they’ll be your perfect snack for exploring!

They’ll also serve local beers, brewed in collaboration with popular Orlando spots like Sideward Brewing and The Ravenous Pig. A perfect combo for a savory treat.

Your favorite brands are also getting new homes! Get ready to step up your shoe game with Vans, opening soon at Disney Springs. You’ll find all their classic footwear, comfy sneakers, skate shoes, and apparel.

The Oakley store has also reopened with a fresh, updated look just in time for summer. Swing by for performance eyewear, apparel, and accessories to keep you stylish under the Florida sun.

Feeling the heat? Cool down with a Kakigori Kool! This new cart from Morimoto Asia, located right outside the restaurant, serves Japan’s famous shaved ice dessert. Think fruity syrups and playful toppings like strawberry popping boba and fresh pineapple – it’s a perfect refreshing treat.

While we’re talking Morimoto Asia, did you know both this iconic restaurant and The Polite Pig earned a spot in the MICHELIN Guide? That’s an excellent reason to add these award-winning dining experiences to your summer plans!

And for all you chocolate fanatics, get ready for a sweet makeover! The Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop in the Marketplace is getting a big renovation, set for completion in 2027. Expect more indoor seating, a new layout, and some extra surprises. Don’t worry though, you won’t miss out on your favorite World-Famous Hot Fudge Sundaes. Ghirardelli will open a temporary location in Town Center later this summer to keep your cravings satisfied.

Snack lovers, listen up! Goofy’s Candy Company will soon launch a new create-your-own popcorn offering. Imagine designing your perfect mix: choose from caramel, buttered, or the exclusive Disney Springs orange citrus popcorn. Then add a chocolate drizzle and two or three candy mix-ins. It’s truly a unique snack for your summer adventures!

Get ready to groove! On select nights this summer, the AdventHealth Waterside Stage transforms into a high-energy dance party. It celebrates the newest original movies heading to Disney+, like Descendants: Wicked Wonderland and Camp Rock 3, alongside other favorite Disney Channel tunes. It’s the perfect way for families to add extra magic to their evening as part of Cool KIDS’ SUMMER.

Tap into your creative side this summer with Mickey and Minnie Cookie Art, complete with edible watercolor paints, at Amorette’s Patisserie. They’re introducing new beach-themed designs, inviting aspiring culinary artists of all ages to decorate these sweet summer treats.

It’s a fun and tasty activity, available exclusively at Amorette’s Patisserie!
