It’s fall, and there are a LOT of happenings at the theme parks in Central Florida!

From Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party on the milder end of all things spooky to the much more menacing Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando, there’s a little bit of something for everyone. And if you’re heading to Universal soon, you’ll probably want to know about some special events they’ve got going on!

Loews Royal Pacific Resort, Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, and Hard Rock Hotel have all released a schedule of fall events for guests to check out! And if you’re staying on property at Universal Orlando, you’re definitely going to want to check these out.

First up is Jake’s Beer Festival at Loews Royal Pacific Resort, where beer lovers and foodies can enjoy a special festival. Universal says this festival happens twice a year and features “more than 50 craft beers and hard seltzers, along with chicken and waffles, flatbreads, Jake’s famous pretzel rods, grilled prawns, braised short ribs and desserts featuring mini pavlova, blueberry and apple tart and German chocolate stout cake.” This fall, it’s happening Friday, October 4th from 6-9PM. Tickets are available online.

If you want to visit Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, then you might want to check out Harbor Nights. This year is the re-launch of the popular food and wine event and tickets can now be purchased online for October 18th from 6:30-9PM.
