Situated along the boardwalk, Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resort has long been a destination for events. Now, on the heels of renovations to the guest rooms and dining facilities, the 1,190-room hotel has finished a convention center expansion that includes the spacious Newport Ballroom. Measuring 16,000 square feet, the ballroom is part of an expansion that adds 28,000 square feet to the convention center, bringing the total square footage to nearly 100,000. The ballroom, like the resort itself, has a subtle nautical theme reminiscent of Newport and Nantucket in the late 1800s with blue undertones as well as gold and white accents. The 4,600-square-foot Newport Lobby & Gallery gives way to the addition that includes three pre-function areas, two networking rotundas, eight breakout spaces, state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment, and other amenities. The ballroom has 22-foot ceilings with moldings and holds 2,300 people for receptions; 1,584 for theater-style events, and nearly 1,300 for banquets.

In the center of Disney World’s busy Disney Springs dining, shopping, and entertainment complex, Wine Bar George is a den of civility. Within its warm interior with brick and wood details, the two-story, 6,000-square-foot wine bar—run by namesake master sommelier George Miliotes—features six event-space options. Groups can buy out the entire restaurant to fit 200 seated or 300 standing guests, including multi-course dinners with wine pairings. Smaller groups can opt for the second floor interior (80 seated or 190 for receptions), bar (30 seated or 50 for receptions), or barrel room (as many as 190 seated). The glass-enclosed library holds 10 guests, and the patio seats 26 or holds 35 reception-style. Miliotes himself will host private wine pairing sessions for private events.

The Four Seasons Resort Orlando on Disney World property added a $2.5 million, 16-acre practice facility to its Tranquilo Golf Club in January, and the greens are an outdoor option for group activities or catered events. The expanse, which includes a chipping green and an 18-hole putting course, can hold 200 guests for receptions or banquets. Alternatively, groups of 60 might first play a round of golf—even a glow-in-the-dark version after sunset—then proceed to the putting course’s sidewalk perimeter for food and beverage or to the indoor Tranquilo Clubhouse for a cocktail reception or meal in the banquet room. The club's Plancha restaurant, serving Cuban fare, is another option.
