Arabian Nights closing at the end of the year

[bazzanoid]

Looks like horsey tourists are spending their vacation cash more carefully....

Arabian Nights has said today it will close permanently on December 31st, citing the demand in the marketplace for a cheaper product than it can provide as the reason.

The owner will be moving all 40 horses to his farm, but naturally there's 220 people out of a job at the end of the year

If you're heading over this year and were thinking about catching it, do it while you can!

Not my kind of thing but considered going years ago, bought some tickets off Ebay I saw dirt cheap, never used them so relisted and made a profit.

Just a few weeks ago it was on the local Florida news that they had updated all their show, seems funny to do that if they are closing down

What a shame. We saw this on our first trip and really enjoyed it.

Wow, shame. Our timeshare is Vacation Village at Parkway so it's just a 2 min walk across street so was a nice little night when we both could have a drink. Loved show. I'm not into horses but could see the skill the riders had . I think it was slightly wasted on some who didn't appreciate the work the entertainers did.

I expect Vacation Village will snap up the land and build yet another building block.

I remember seeing this when I was 12 on my first visit to Orlando, I guess it's a bit dated now but it's done well to last as it did
