? about shows at Universal and dinner ressies

[robandeye]

Hi,
I'm trying to make ressies for dinner at Tchoup Chop one night for my family and was just wondering if there is anything special (like fireworks or anything) that goes on at Universal at night that I should try to plan around. We are going 8/21-8/27 (first timers) and I'm thinking of trying Emeril's restaurant on either that Friday or Saturday night. We are 5 adults and a 7y.o. I just wanted to make sure we don't miss anything good. Thanks for any help. You guys have been fantastic on this board and I really appreciate it.

Anybody have any answers for me?

Torch Lighting Ceremony
Gather poolside on select evenings for the torch lighting ceremony featuring the “oli aloha” welcoming chant, a fire dancer and more. The torch lighting ceremony at Royal Pacific Resort is based on an ancient Hawaiian tradition called “kukui hele po” which translates to “light to move in the night”.

Savor the exotic tastes of the South Pacific and enjoy a musical journey through the Polynesian islands.

Hula and fire dancers delight the audience and entice a few to even learn the hula! It’s great entertainment for the entire family!

PBH:

Musica della Notte
Come and experience our daily show "Musica della Notte" (Music of the Night)! Each night at sunset Loews Portofino Bay Hotel's Harbor Piazza will come alive with a musical celebration that captures the romance and charm of Italy and the allure of Mediterranean hospitality.

Musica della Notte showcases a unique blend of classic opera, romantic and festive music, along with 'popera' favorites - the wildly popular musical style that bridges the gap between pop and opera. Three themed shows will be offered on a rotating basis Romantico Night, Classico Night, and Italian Festival Night.

The activities begin nightly at sunset (weather permitting).

There's also Universal 360, but I think it will be discontinued by the time you go if not already. Personally, I'd go with the tchoup Chop dinner!
