NONE (well ok, Raglan Road can be fun)

I believe that's it.
PI is mainly for passing through between the other two sides of DTD.
Anything marked with a * represents "family entertainment".

We walked through last week and it was pretty sad. Our friends are coming down in a few weeks from NYC and were so excited to go to the clubs at PI, until I told them all the clubs closed! they were so upset. They used to love going there.
What exactly was Disneys reason for closing these nightclubs? I am thinking they wanted to make it a more family area, but its like they just handed over business to Universals citiwalk.

What's the Adventure's Club Tiki Shack? Is that just a little drink stand?

I'm BEYOND unhappy with Disney about this particular decision. If they wanted to redo PI, why not do it bit by bit rather than all at once? I love PI as a whole, and most especially the Adventurer's Club. (Well, okay, and I'll admit to going to the 80's club to get my dance on after a few drinks... and loving watching people stumble on and off the rotating dance floor at Mannequins...)

For a company that loves to make the money, these seems like such a foolish way to go about revamping the area...

It was...now it just serves popcorn, ice cream bars and bottled soda. When it's open--it tends to close more often than even the pizza stand.

King Bob, you could include Fuego for drinks as well as merchandise. It's small but there really is a full bar in there, with a better beer and wine selection than any of the clubs ever had, as well as authentic espresso and cappucino.

But that's ultimately a minor point, there's nothing left that justifies spending an entire night there.

Do you think will they ever have nightclubs there again? Or will they just make it all family friendly restaurants and stores?

Thanks; did not know that. Thought it was just a cigar place.

The Central/South American restaurant that is currently under construction will include a night club playing Latin music later in the evening. That is the ONLY thing so far that has been announced for PI and there have been ZERO rumors. Take your friends to CityWalk. It's similar to what PI used to be but nowhere near as good.

There is supposed to be a balloon ride installed somewhere this year.

I don't think it should take third of the place out, but who knows?
