Downtown Disney Excursion
Enjoy an evening of fun and entertainment Disney-style! The Downtown Disney area is an exciting metropolis of restaurants, nightclubs, theaters and shops encompassing 120 acres along the south shore of Buena Vista Lagoon.

Downtown Disney includes clubs like House of Blues, restaurants like Bongos Cuban Café, a 24-theater movie complex as well as many specialty shops. If you want additional entertainment options, there is Pleasure Island, a separate area in Downtown Disney that requires an admission fee. It has seven theme nightclubs including Comedy Warehouse, Pleasure Island Jazz Company and Rock n Roll Beach Club. There is also an outdoor stage and a number of restaurants such as Planet Hollywood and Portobello Yacht Club.

If you need a ride to Downtown Disney, be sure to select the Downtown Disney transportation fee when completing your registration.

The $20 fee is for round trip transportation only. There is no admission fee to Downtown Disney (individual clubs may have cover charges). Admission to Pleasure Island is a separate fee you pay on-site (approx. $21).

Disney Discount Tickets
As a special convenience for conference participants, everyone who registers will be sent information on purchasing advance discount tickets for Multi-Day PARK HOPPER Tickets good for all four Disney theme parks (Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, MGM Studios and Animal Kingdom). This offer will not be available on site in Orlando.
