Overview
- Disney announced on Thursday that Hurly‑Burly, a day‑to‑night waterfront lounge, and Basin on the BoardWalk, an interactive bath‑and‑body shop, will begin opening in late 2026.
- Hurly‑Burly will run family‑friendly trivia and games during the afternoon and convert to a 21‑and‑over live music lounge at night serving coastal‑inspired cocktails and light bites.
- Basin on the BoardWalk will offer handcrafted soaps and bath products alongside hands‑on features such as a custom bath tea blending counter, a make‑your‑own‑soap station, and a soap embossing press.
- Disney teased a third offering, a new quick‑service restaurant, with full details promised later this summer and reporting and permit records linking the new venues to recently vacated BoardWalk storefronts.
- The announcements continue a multi‑year reshaping of the BoardWalk that has replaced longtime tenants and prompted debate among fans about whether the changes preserve the promenade’s original character.
