Trust us: if there’s one thing we have not forgotten about, it’s the changes coming to Disney’s BoardWalk!
One of the changes includes Hurly-Burly, which is taking over the former Jellyrolls location. This space is going to be full of entertainment both day and night, and we’re finally seeing active construction work on the project, and we’re getting SO excited.
You can start to see a new paint job coming to Hurly-Burly!
The space is set to open in late 2026 and, in the afternoons, will offer family-friendly fun, including host-led activities like trivia and games.
In the evenings, it will be open to guests 21 and over and will feature live music performances, along with “classic, coastal-inspired cocktails and tasty light bites.” Beyond the initial announcement, Disney has not shared any further details, but given that we were massive Jellyroll fans, this might be a worthy replacement.
While it isn’t open quite yet, you can check out the space through a couple of different ways. If you’re staying at the BoardWalk, or Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club, you can walk to the area and check out all the construction. You might even be able to see it from your room. You can also walk or boat over from the Swan and Dolphin.
If you’re not staying at those hotels, you can walk from EPCOT using the International Gateway location and check out everything else the BoardWalk has to offer. You can also use the Skyliner at the International Gateway if you’re at Hollywood Studios or other Skyliner-attached resorts.
Disney says the space will be set within “a vibrant BoardWalk story that spans over a century.” Good drinks, good vibes, and good music? Yep, we’re probably going to be there every day.
