Disney's BoardWalk is getting a new gathering spot this fall. Hurly-Burly, a dining and entertainment lounge themed to a historic seaside vaudeville theater, is set to open on October 1, 2026, taking over the space once occupied by JellyRolls piano bar.
The concept leans into a turn-of-the-century coastal theater aesthetic, with a menu of vintage-inspired cocktails and light bites meant to evoke an era of nautical novelty and world-class live performance. The venue is designed to shift personalities as the day progresses: afternoons will be open to all ages, with trivia, games, and family-friendly activities, while evenings transition into a live music experience exclusively for guests 21 and older, beginning at 9 p.m.
JellyRolls, the beloved dueling-piano bar that had called the BoardWalk home for nearly 30 years, closed in spring 2025. Hurly-Burly's October 1 debut marks the first time the space will be fully operational under its new identity.
For Walt Disney World visitors planning a fall trip, Hurly-Burly adds a fresh evening option to the BoardWalk's lineup — one that works for families earlier in the day before pivoting to a more grown-up atmosphere after dark. If you're still sorting out your visit, it's a good time to look at Walt Disney World ticket options for the season.
