Pow Wow Continues With Creative Food Displays, Super Heroes, and Blue Man Group

The U.S. Travel Association's International Pow Wow delegates continued their tour of Orlando's largest attractions Monday night with an after-hours party at Universal Orlando. (Read about the first party at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom here.) Nearly 4,500 convention delegates headed to the theme park's Islands of Adventure to explore its three themed areas—Marvel Super Hero Land, Seuss Landing, and the Lost Continent—each filled with food stations, character meet-and-greets, and access to the attractions. Guests also got a sneak peek of the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which will officially open next month.

The party wrapped up at the Universal Music Plaza, where San Francisco-based DJ Mike Relm entertained before the Blue Man Group traveling troupe performed a nearly 45-minute show.
