If you're heading to Universal Orlando this fall, CityWalk has a couple of unexpected pop-up experiences worth building into your evening. Two popular NBC reality shows — singing competition The Voice and the intrigue-filled The Traitors: New Blood — are each taking over a CityWalk venue with themed decor and exclusive cocktail menus for a limited time.
Celebrating its 30th season, The Voice is settling into Rising Star, CityWalk's karaoke club, from September 21st through the show's season finale in mid-December. Alongside The Voice-branded decor, guests can order two specialty cocktails: The Blind Audition (bourbon, lime juice, house-made honey syrup, and lemon-lime soda) and the Chair Turner (white tequila, triple sec, lime juice, cranberry juice, and agave syrup).
Meanwhile, The Traitors: New Blood takeover runs September 12th through the season finale on November 19th at Universal's Great Movie Escape. The experience includes two authentic costumes worn on-screen by host Alan Cumming and Scottish castle-inspired decor spread across two bars — The Library and The Roundtable. The Library menu spans five drinks, including The Raven (scotch whisky, blackberry whiskey, cassis liqueur, lemon juice, and ginger beer) and a non-alcoholic option called The Shield. The Roundtable menu offers five more, including The New Blood (cherry rum, dark rum, cassis liqueur, and hibiscus syrup) and The Ally mocktail for those skipping spirits.
All of these experiences are time-limited, so the fall season is the window to catch them. Planning a Universal Orlando visit before November wraps up gives you the best shot at both takeovers running simultaneously.
