Orlando, Fla. – Nov. 13, 2015 – The Orlando Eye has introduced a new nighttime experience on the 400-foot observation wheel with Eye Glow. Starting Friday, Nov. 13, guests can buy or upgrade their flight experience with the Eye Glow package, which includes a flight of wine, beer or cider, or glass of champagne, and premium access to the new Eye Glow lounge, before boarding the observation wheel.
The Eye Glow lounge features bright lights, glow elements and dance music to provide the perfect party atmosphere to kick off the evening. Eye Glow offers an ideal starting off point for date nights, a girls’ night out on the town, bachelor and bachelorette parties and more.
“International Drive and I-Drive 360 are home to some exciting nightlife options, and we wanted to provide a perfect option for our guests to transition from their restaurant dining experience to their night out on the town,” said Robin Goodchild, general manager of the Orlando Eye. “Eye Glow combines the best of both worlds with a fun, lounge experience that moves effortlessly into a capsule for guests to continue the party with a nighttime flight on the Eye!”
Eye Glow packages are available nightly from 6 p.m. until close. Guests can buy the upgraded Eye Glow package online or upgrade their general admission flight in-person at the Orlando Eye. For more information on the new Eye Glow experience or to purchase tickets, visit OfficialOrlandoEye.com.
