In the Theme Park Capital of the World, Pointe Orlando keeps playtime alive – with or without the kids. It’s an all-in-one mix of entertainment, music, dining and more. Much more. 

You can live like a local and enjoy delicious international cuisine, catch a flick at the cinema or get involved in fun attractions like mini-golf and escape rooms suitable for all ages. 

There’s also a whole host of grown up activities that get you drinking and dancing without a care in the world. Here’s your insider guide to making the most of it. 
 

What and where is Pointe Orlando? 



Pointe Orlando is a one stop shop for dining, entertainment, bars and activities. It’s located at 9101 International Drive, which is easy to reach by car or shuttles from Orlando’s major theme parks. If you’re not driving, an easy way to reach Pointe is on the I-RIDE Trolley – affordable transport that also passes most of Orlando’s biggest attractions, such as SeaWorld, Discovery Cove and ICON Park

Whichever way you decide to get there, Pointe Orlando is ready for your arrival. It is open 365 days a year, with most venues open until 9PM. 
 

Shopping at Pointe Orlando 

Although shopping isn’t the main attraction of Pointe Orlando, there’s still lots of retail therapy to look forward to. We are partial to picking up unique gifts and souvenirs at Moondance Trading Co., browsing beautiful jewellery at Tharoo & Co., getting a matching set of family socks at The Sock Gallery, and getting the ‘zoomies’ early doors with some sweets from the Rocket Fizz candy shop. 
 

Attractions and entertainment at Pointe Orlando 

Main Event Entertainment – Main Event lives up to its name. You can go bowling, try arcade games or VR, battle it out in the new laser tag arena or show your strength on the gravity ropes – there’s endless fun to be found. And that’s just the start: there’s also mini-golf, an escape room, billiards and best of all, a full-service restaurant with a huge menu of delicious American classics. 



Activate Games – Activate Games is an interactive games area where all ages feel like the main character. To beat the competition, you’ll need to jump, climb and solve problems to score points in the different, futuristic games rooms. 

Regal Cinemas – This isn’t your regular cinema. Regal brings movies to life with 21 screens and state-of-the-art 4DX technology, along with central Florida's largest IMAX screen. In our experience, there’s no better place to catch the latest blockbuster fuelled by plenty of popcorn and snacks. 

WonderWorksWonderWorks in an amusement park like no other. It has 35,000 square feet of self-proclaimed ‘edu-tainment’ – including more than 100 hands-on exhibits in six zones. Visitors can create life sized bubbles, experience zero gravity like an astronaut or sit inside an earthquake simulator. Outside of the zones, there’s even an indoor ropes course, laser tag and 4D simulator ride. 

The Greens Indoor Golf and Bar – Whether your skill level (in golfing or drinking) The Greens should make the cut. It has cutting-edge technology, putting green, golf lessons and food on demand. 

Monkey Joe’s – If you have younger kids, Monkey Joe’s, which is designed for children under 12, is a vibrant, indoor inflatable playground with slides, tunnels, jumps and obstacles courses, and plenty of snacks too. 

Will to Escape – Book in some family bonding or squabbling (no risk, no reward) as you work together to solve the puzzles in just 60 minutes and escape themed rooms. 



Funny Bone Comedy Club – For over 21s, Pointe Orlando’s resident comedy club hosts Established and emerging comedians, promising an evening of laughter, drinks and tasty chicken. 
 

Drinking and dining at Pointe Orlando 

There are more than 20 different drinking and dining outlets at Pointe Orlando, ensuring there’s something for every taste. Here’s a roundup of our favourites. 



Live! at the Pointe Orlando – Live at The Pointe Orlando is the best bars and restaurants all rolled into one. The line up includes Sports Social, where you can catch the live sporting events, the Western-themed PBR Cowboy Bar, food spots like Sal's Pizza and The Palm Tree Club, and an open-air plaza and stage for evening entertainment. 

Dick’s Last Resort – A super fun restaurant that’s just as popular with locals as tourists. The service is deliberately bad but the food is a great, and it’s all part of the fun (don’t tell dad and see how he reacts). 

Maggiano’s Little Italy – For families who want a break from American fare, this cute Italian restaurant serves heaping, family-style traditional Italian dishes, antipasti, wine and more. 



The Capital Grille – For an upmarket choice or special occasion, The Capital Grille is a fine dining steakhouse with exceptional steaks that are hand-cut in-house, fresh seafood, delicious desserts and a lengthy wine list. 

Blue Martini – To let your hair down and join the party, head to Blue Martini, which has more than 42 martinis on the menu, plus live music, DJs, a dance floor and full tapas menu. Better yet, the kitchen is open until 1AM, making it the ideal spot for a late night bite. 



Cuba Libre – Step back in time to Old Havana at Cuba Libre, where you can dance the night away with traditional Cuban cuisine and cocktails on tap, including mojitos and rum varieties.
