Disney4me Posted Monday at 06:00 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 06:00 PM Disney World is saying goodbye to a fan-favorite bar, and whether you loved it or never quite got the hype, its closure marks the end of an era. Jellyrolls Jellyrolls, the dueling piano bar that’s been a staple at Disney’s BoardWalk for 30 years, is closing its doors for good—at least at this location. The bar has announced that its final night at Disney will be April 19th, and while it does plan to reopen elsewhere, it won’t be on Disney property. So if you want to experience the energy, the music, and the legendary “Jellyroll of the Day” one last time at the BoardWalk, this is your last chance. Jellyrolls isn’t your typical Disney bar. It’s loud, it’s lively, and it’s known for its nightly entertainment featuring talented pianists who can play just about anything you request. Guests pack in each night to sing along, sip on specialty drinks, and soak in the electric atmosphere of two baby grand pianos going head-to-head. And if you’ve never been, let us tell you—it’s an experience unlike any other at Disney World. Jellyrolls The announcement of its closure came earlier this year, with Jellyrolls revealing that they were “making a move.” At first, it seemed like the bar might stick around through spring of 2025, but we now know that the final night will be April 19th, 2024. After that, Jellyrolls will officially be moving to a new location outside of Disney property. The exact location hasn’t been announced yet, but we’ll be keeping an eye out for updates. Jellyrolls So why is Jellyrolls leaving Disney’s BoardWalk? Disney hasn’t released an official statement, but it’s worth noting that Jellyrolls isn’t Disney-owned—it’s a third-party venue. That means this decision likely has more to do with business agreements than anything else. Whatever the reason, it’s a major change for the BoardWalk, which has seen its fair share of updates and transformations over the years. Jellyrolls If you want to visit Jellyrolls before it closes, here’s what you need to know. The bar is open from 7 PM to 1:45 AM every night, with entertainment kicking off at 8 PM. There’s a $22 cover charge, though Cast Members get discounted admission ($11 each night and free admission on Sundays with a valid Cast ID). DVC Members and Annual Passholders can also snag discounts on select nights. It’s a 21+ venue, so this is one of those rare Disney experiences exclusively for adults. ©Disney While you’re there, make sure to try one of their famous glow drinks or the rotating Jellyroll of the Day. Beer, wine, and seltzers are available too, if cocktails aren’t your thing. And trust us—arrive early if you want a good seat. The place fills up fast, especially now that the countdown to closure has begun. Crowd at Jellyrolls We’re always on the lookout for the latest Disney news, so stay tuned for more.
