Did you know that the Grande Lakes Orlando resort has a new Magic Show available for guests? “The Magic Show” by America’s Got Talent finalist Drew Thomas at Grande Lakes Orlando, is now taking place on weekends Fridays and Saturdays at 7:00PM and 9:00PM throughout all of 2025.
Hosted at The Ritz-Carlton and JW Marriott, this electrifying show blends mind-bending magic, large-scale illusions, humor, and audience participation in an intimate setting at the luxurious hotel. Guests can expect vanishing acts, defying natural laws, and immersive suspense that blurs reality and illusion. With limited seating, this VIP experience promises laughter and wonder.
Our family recently experienced this lovely magic show by the charming Drew Thomas and his wife Rebecca – who is not only his partner on stage but also in life – and it was such a wonderful time with jaw dropping acts – you just have to see it and experience it in person ASAP!
We also are doing a giveaway contest for tickets for 4 to attend the Magic Show on Instagram this week!

Pre-Show Dining at Grande Lakes Orlando
One great thing about seeing a show at Grande Lakes is the fantastic options for Pre-Show Dining from MICHELIN-Recommended Knife & Spoon (steak, seafood) or Highball & Harvest (Southern fare) at the Ritz Carlton to MICHELIN-Recommended Primo (Mediterranean-Italian) or Whisper Creek Farm: The Kitchen (small plates) at JW Marriott Orlando. Plus dining includes parking validation.
We visited Chef Scott Pizzo at Highball & Harvest to dine on their fantastic Parker Rolls and Southern fare like shrimp and grits paired with artisanal cocktails. Chef Pizzo, a Le Cordon Bleu grad, honed his craft under Norman Van Aken at The Ritz-Carlton and later at The Ravenous Pig, shaping his passion for regional, seasonal flavors.
Check out the Magic Show and dinner soon at Grande Lakes Orlando Resort!
