» Allegiant Air pilots picketed at Orlando-Sanford International Airport
Allegiant Air pilots, represented by the Teamsters, picketed outside the Orlando-Sanford International Airport last week in order to raise awareness of their continued fight for a fair union contract. Their primary concerns: compensation and benefits that are on par with industry standards enjoyed by pilots of other major airlines who are also unionized. Although the pilots aren’t on strike, union members did vote to authorize a strike, if needed, in the future, if Allegiant fails to reach an agreement with their union that members approve of. They’re hoping that won’t be necessary. The Teamsters Local 2118 represents 1,400 pilots for Allegiant Air across 22 airports in the United States. Their last (and first, actually) union contract was negotiated in 2016 and became amendable in 2021. They’ve been fighting for improvements to wage and benefits guaranteed to them under their contract ever since.
» Orlando received perfect score on LGBTQ+ inclusive policies report
The Human Rights Campaign, one of the largest LGBTQ+ civil rights groups in the nation, has released its annual report evaluating cities across the country on how inclusive their municipal laws, policies and services are of LGBTQ+ people who live and work there. Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Miami, Orlando, St Petersburg, Tampa and Wilton Manors all received 100% scores in the organization’s Municipal Equality Index. “With federal and state governments too often leaving LGBTQ+ people behind, cities and towns are stepping up and embracing inclusion and equality,” said Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign. Florida Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia, a Republican from Spring Hill, recently criticized several local governments (including Orange County) for spending taxpayer funds on Pride events and for LGBTQ+ youth services as part of the Florida DOGE task force findings. The state’s transportation department also sparked outrage earlier this year when it began removing pavement surface markings of all political stripes, including the rainbow crosswalk outside Orlando’s Pulse nightclub.
» Young actress and Orlando native shines bright in ‘Wicked: For Good’
This month, 8-year-old actress and Orlando native Scarlett Spears will make her big-screen debut in the highly anticipated sequel Wicked: For Good. In the film, she plays the young version of Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. Adult Glinda is played by Ariana Grande, who earned an Academy Award nomination for her role in the first movie. Spears, who already values the importance of hard work at her young age, has already demonstrated her talent in the industry. Since 2022, she has played the daughter of a mob boss on the ABC soap opera General Hospital. Earlier this year, she starred as the kid version of Dora the Explorer in the Paramount+ live-action movie Dora and the Search for Sol Dorado. Although Spears didn’t work directly with Ariana Grande on set for Wicked, she did get to meet her and pose for photos inside Glinda’s iconic floating pink bubble. On Spears’ Instagram page, which is run by her mother, there is a photo of Spears and Grande — both wearing fancy tiaras — sharing a big hug. When audiences see Wicked: For Good, Spears hopes they connect with her character and see how Glinda’s journey to becoming The Good Witch of the North began.
» Florida election supervisors again ask lawmakers to make it easier to vote by mail
Florida election supervisors are again asking state lawmakers to change state law to make it easier for Floridians to vote by mail, but whether the GOP-controlled Legislature will act on the request is questionable, since they ignored a similar request earlier this year. David Ramba, representing the Florida Supervisors of Elections, told the Senate Ethics and Elections Committee that supervisors in the state want lawmakers to reinstate the checkbox on mail-in ballot envelopes, an item wiped away by a 2021 election law that requires voters to renew their vote-by-mail ballots requests every two years instead of every four years. “It is a huge expense for our supervisors to go out and then solicit people who want to vote by mail,” Ramba said, adding, “We believe there should be the opportunity for that valid voter to — we call it ‘check the box’ — to be able to ask to continue to be on that vote-by-mail list.” SOEs also want legislation that allows voters now deemed “inactive” to become an “active” voter if they sign a ballot petition form. They also want
legislators to exempt from public records the personal information of election workers as “Critical Infrastructure Assets.”
» Opponents ask DeSantis to stop 2025 Florida bear hunt
Opponents of Florida’s first black bear hunt in a decade rallied last Monday at the Capitol amid efforts to prevent bears from being killed next month in four areas of the state. In addition to the rally, opponents say they have obtained about 40 of the 172 permits that wildlife officials decided to issue for the hunt. They say those permits will go unused. Also, a Leon County circuit judge next week will hear arguments as the group Bear Warriors United seeks a temporary injunction to halt the hunt. Sierra Club Florida brought about 100 people to the Capitol for the rally as part of a longshot request to get Gov. Ron DeSantis to use his executive powers to stop the hunt, which is scheduled from Dec. 6 to Dec. 28. Buses came from Orlando, Jacksonville, Daytona Beach and Gainesville. The Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission voted in August to approve the hunt — the first since 2015. The commission used a lottery-style system to grant permits, with each permit-holder allowed to kill one bear. Opponents of the hunt contend that the commission’s approval was not based on sound science and used outdated bear population estimates. Leon County Circuit Judge Angela Dempsey has scheduled a Nov. 24 hearing in the lawsuit filed by Bear Warriors United. In addition to considering the group’s request for a temporary injunction to halt the hunt, Dempsey will take up a motion by the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to dismiss the case.

Orange County moves forward with effort to revive local film industry through creation of an incentive program
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
University of Central Florida senior Leah Ricketts, a local film student, told county commissioners last week that she’s dreamed of working in film since she was a child. But she, like many other film grads, is worried about finding secure work in the industry — at least locally.
Veteran actors are feeling the anxiety, too. Apopka resident Adam Vernier regularly works on TV sets these days and had roles in locally shot films like Sydney White and Beethoven’s Big Break — released in 2007 and 2008, respectively. He’s also father of two little girls, but told county commissioners that he regularly has to travel out of state in order to find consistent acting work. “I have to leave them to go shoot [for] work, and I absolutely hate having to leave my family,” he admitted.
The problem is that other cities and states, including nearby Georgia and Louisiana, offer lucrative tax incentives or rebates for filmmakers that lure them into their communities for filming — even if the TV show or film is set in Florida.
“A lot of us are tired of seeing other locations shot for Orange County. We want to see Orange County itself and see these locations that we love,” said Jason Gregory, a local screenwriter, producer and “proud” graduate of UCF’s film program.
Florida, once dubbed “Hollywood East,” used to have its own statewide film incentive program — drawing in production for blockbusters like Edward Scissorhands and My Girl — but the right-wing, Koch-founded group Americans for Prosperity lobbied to kill that program about a decade ago, tossing campaign cash at Florida’s most influential politicians to help seal the deal.
Florida Sen. Nancy Detert, a Republican who had supported the state’s film incentives, publicly shamed the Koch-affiliated group over the issue in a 2015 Senate committee meeting.
“You’re all on the Koch brothers’ payroll. Good for you,” Detert told AFP lobbyist Skylar Zandar, sarcastically. “I hope you’re getting paid a lot of money to show up to these meetings and say meaningless things. Obviously you’re for prosperity for yourself and not anyone else … You people serve absolutely no purpose.”
With the defunding of Florida’s film incentive program in 2016 also came the demolition of stable work for industry professionals like Vernier
and Atlanta actor Chris Greene (whom we spoke to about this topic last year). Local actors are, instead, more likely these days to have to travel to Louisiana or Georgia — which offers one of the country’s most generous film incentive programs — for work.
“We have 3,000 students who graduate from film programs a year, and we’re losing over half of them to other locations,” Roseann Harrington, chief of staff for Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings, told Orlando Weekly in a phone call. Harrington, for the last year, has been meeting with a work group of industry professionals — including union leaders with IATSE and SAGAFTRA, the Orlando Film Commission, and representatives of film programs at schools like UCF and Full Sail — to help find a way to “resurrect” the local film industry.
“We were going gangbusters in the ’90s,” Harrington told county commissioners last Tuesday, noting the filming activity that came from Disney bringing in MGM Studios and Universal Orlando opening Nickelodeon Studios — a film location that, as of 2005, is no longer in operation.
Georgia’s incentive program, funded by the state’s general funds, offers a 20 to 30 percent tax credit — rivaling even Hollywood — for productions that spend at least $500,000 in the state. Orange County’s program, in contrast, will offer up to a 20 percent rebate with a cap of $1 million (only paid after the completion of a project) for film and TV productions that spend at least $400,000 locally — on local labor, catering, hotel rooms, equipment and other production-related expenses. It will also offer up to a 10 percent rebate for TV commercial productions — capped at $50,000 — that spend at least $250,000 locally. Documentaries, porn and political content will be excluded from eligibility.
Unlike Georgia’s program, Orange County’s will largely be funded by the county’s sizable money pot of hotel tax revenue, also known as the tourist development tax. That tax, levied on hotel stays and short-term lodging in Orange County, generated $359 million last year alone.
The film incentive program — designed to promote tourism, support economic activity within Orange County, and retain local talent — will be funded by a sliver of that: $5 million of hotel tax revenue over the next five years, or a $25 million commitment total.
Eligible recipients for the rebate will have to use “best efforts”to hire local film industry professionals and will need to hire at least five students or graduates of local film-related programs who still live in Orange County in order to qualify.
“With this incentive, I [would] feel more comfortable, more secure within the job market of film,” said UCF student Ricketts, speaking in support of the program last week.
Local filmmaker Eddie Venegas told the board that he built his career in Orlando and is
“We’re probably not going to compete with Georgia, because they’re bringing in Marvel movies,” Roseann Harrington says. “And that’s not our goal.”
After the statewide incentive program ended, filming in Florida “kind of dried up,” according to Harrington, and in Orlando, “We kind of scaled back accordingly.”
The plan to revive the industry, approved by Orange County leaders, is to create a local film incentive program — modest in scale — that will aim to draw in small to medium film and TV productions, like Hallmark movies and independent films. “We’re probably not going to compete with Georgia, because they’re bringing in Marvel movies,” Harrington told the Weekly. “And that’s not our goal.”
incentive programs, similarly hoping to help draw in production and spur economic activity.
The annual financial commitment for these programs in Florida ranges from $500,000 in Duval County to Broward County’s annual commitment of $12 million.
Hillsborough County, which earmarks $750,000 from tourist tax revenue for film incentives annually, managed to generate 6,000 hotel night stays last year as a result of their film incentive program. “That accounted for $31 millions’ worth of projects in the pipeline for next year, too,” said Harrington.
Still, there are some skeptics, even among those who support the organized labor community. Kristan Wong Karinen, a research analyst for the pro-labor watchdog group Good Jobs First, said film incentive programs generally end up being “economic losers” for communities.
A 2023 audit of Georgia’s program, for instance, found that their film incentives created just 19 cents per every dollar spent, despite the creation of thousands of industry jobs. “The dollar-for-dollar return on investment is almost always negative,” Wong Karinen told Orlando Weekly. A separate study by the Motion Picture Association (not exactly an unbiased party) disputed those findings, demonstrating an economic impact of $6.30 in Georgia for every $1 in film tax incentives.
Most film incentive programs, Wong Karinen says, are statewide, not local. Some of the biggest or more lucrative incentive programs for filmmakers are in Georgia, Texas, New York and California.
“After wildfires devastated Los Angeles earlier this year, the entertainment industry renewed its longstanding concern about productions fleeing California,” Wong Karinen wrote in a recent blog for GoodJobsFirst. “In response, the state more than doubled its filming tax credit program from $330 million to $750 million annually.”
Nonetheless, she said we do have some green flags going for us.
Wong Karinen told the Weekly that the structure of Orange County’s new incentive program “actually seems OK.” Unlike some programs that draw from general funds, Orange County’s will be drawing from a tourism-specific stream of revenue that (under state law, currently) can’t readily be used for other community needs.
hopeful that the new program will allow him to continue to live and work here.
“The proposed five-year $25 million TV incentive program is not a gamble,” he argued. “It’s a strategic, data-driven economic tool that counties across the country have already proven effective.”
Banking on the power of the camera
A half-dozen other municipalities in Florida — including Hillsborough, Duval, Broward, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach and Pinellas counties — have already created their own local
“A lot of times, what we see is that the reason why this is such a problem for communities is because they’re pulling out of necessary resources like firefighting and schools and infrastructure developments, and just other pockets of public services that could better benefit the community,” she explained.
Orange County’s program also has requirements for the use of local labor, and is performance-based — meaning, filmmakers will only get a rebate from the county after
[continued on page 11]
[continued from page 9]
they’ve completed production and demonstrated they’ve met program requirements. “That’s great,” said Wong Karinen. “We love to see that.”
Finally, another key aspect of any kind of subsidy program, she said, is transparency and a reporting mechanism for how this funding is being allocated. That’s something the county did address. According to Harrington, Orange County commissioners will have to approve every project eligible for incentive funding through the new program — meaning those projects will be added to the board’s meeting agendas and should therefore be public record.
“One of the challenges that we have with Georgia is that they don’t publicly disclose which studios are receiving tax credits,” said Wong Karinen. “So we’re kind of like working on an aggregate basis. Like, we only really know the total dollar amount that they’re subsidizing, but we don’t know which studios are actually getting that money.”
Although a critic, she added she was “glad” to see that representatives of industry labor unions, like SAG-AFTRA, were solicited by the county and involved in the local program’s development. “Sometimes they’re not,” she said.
Film Florida, a nonprofit trade association that collaborated with the county on this initiative, for its part, estimated that if Orange County started with an initial investment of $5 million, the incentive program could generate $33 million or more in direct spending in Central Florida and add 2,500 film cast and crew jobs.
‘Laying the kindling’
During discussion of the program last Tuesday, there wasn’t really anyone expressing any opposition to the program, despite reporting on the mixed findings of incentives’ return on investment.
Maybe it was a welcome change from the county handing roughly one-third of its tourist tax revenue (over $100 million) to Visit Orlando,
TRANQ TRAP
Florida Rep. Michelle Salzman files bill to decriminalize more drug testing tools
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
Florida Rep. Michelle Salzman, a Republican from Pensacola, has filed a bill for consideration in 2026 that would aim to help curb drug overdose deaths by decriminalizing drug-checking equipment.
Drug-checking or testing equipment, such as test strips, can be used to help detect the presence of potentially dangerous substances in a batch of drugs. Under Florida law, however, most testing equipment technically falls under the definition of “drug paraphernalia,” which is unlawful to use or possess with the intent to use.
Salzman’s bill, filed last Wednesday, would build on a law passed by Florida lawmakers in 2023 that decriminalized the use of fentanyl test strips only. Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid roughly 50 times more potent than heroin, has driven a surge in drug overdose deaths in recent years, both alone and in combination with other drugs. According to the CDC, fentanyl was involved in nearly 50,000 overdose deaths nationwide in 2024, down from 76,282 deaths in 2023.
“The Legislature recognizes that drug-testing products, including test strips, reagent kits, and related products, are evidence-based harm reduction strategies that do not encourage drug use, but, instead, prevent overdose and death by allowing individuals and communities to
a not-for-profit tourism agency that paid its CEO nearly $700,000 last year, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
As we previously reported, more than 90 percent of Visit Orlando’s budget is made up of public money. The amount of money invested by county leaders in the film incentive program, meanwhile, will make up just a fraction — 5 percent — of the funding that Visit Orlando gets. And it’ll allow local film professionals to (fingers crossed) actually find work in their hometown.
“I think 10, 20 years from now — hell, probably five years from now — we’ll feel like this was money well spent and time well invested,” said county commissioner Mike Scott.
Commissioner Mayra Uribe, who’s running for Orange County mayor, similarly praised the film incentive concept, saying, “This is huge for us.”
According to Harrington, the idea is to help spotlight all parts of Orange County, not just the tourist attractions — like Walt Disney World — that people generally think of when they think of Orlando.
“We want to hit the ground running and have something out there that says, ‘This is the other half of Orange County that you don’t usually see,’ and promote all of these unique destinations,” she explained to commissioners. Another requirement of the program (based in part on where its funding is coming from) is to clearly identify Orange County landmarks in filming — to make it appear as a destination worth visiting. A recent survey from travel agency JustFly found that 60 percent of Gen Z and millennial travelers now plan their trips around what they see on film and TV.
“What we’re doing today, I think ... it’s kindling,” said Scott. “We’re laying the kindling for what will be a larger flame.”
With the commissioners’ approval, the film incentive program will aim to open applications for rebate eligibility in the first quarter of 2026, likely in January. The first round of grants are expected to be approved for production projects in the second half of 2026. mschueler@orlandoweekly.com
identify the presence of dangerous controlled substances and adulterants,” Salzman’s bill reads.
While overdose deaths, including fentanyl-involved deaths, declined in Florida and nationwide last year, other risky substances such as xylazine — a non-opioid tranquilizer also known as “tranq” — have also entered the illicit
user) into drugs sold as fentanyl, cocaine and heroin. Xylazine use has also been linked to effects such as dizziness, low heart rate and necrotic skin wounds severe enough to require amputation.
Expanding legal protections for harm reduction
Under Florida law, only drug testing equipment capable of detecting fentanyl is currently lawful to possess, distribute and use. That is, the decriminalization of fentanyl test strips by lawmakers in 2023 didn’t apply to drug-checking tools capable of detecting non-fentanyl substances like xylazine.
Salzman’s proposal would amend Florida law to change that by clarifying that unlawful “drug paraphernalia” does not apply to “test strips, reagent kits, or any other narcotic-drug-testing products” used solely to detect whether
Under current state law, test strips fall under the definition of ‘drug paraphernalia,’ and are illegal to possess or use.
drug market. As a central nervous system depressant, xylazine can exacerbate the life-threatening effects of other depressants, such as fentanyl.
A U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration report notes that xylazine has been involved in a growing number of drug overdose deaths, and is most often found laced (unbeknownst to the
a drug contains fentanyl, fentanyl analogues (e.g. carfentanil), xylazine, cocaine, amphetamines, cathinones, “or any other controlled substance or adulterant.”
If approved, Florida would join at least 30 states that have already legalized the possession of drug-checking equipment broadly, according
to the Network for Public Health Law. An additional 11 states, including Florida, explicitly allow for the use of fentanyl drug-checking equipment only.
Under Florida law, the possession or advertisement of drug paraphernalia is a first-degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. Giving drug paraphernalia to a minor under 18 is a second-degree felony, punishable by up to 15 years in prison, a fine of up to $10,000 or both.
Why was this unlawful in the first place?
Almost as a default, most states passed antidrug paraphernalia laws decades ago based on a model created by the DEA in 1979. That model included drug testing equipment in its definition of unlawful drug paraphernalia.
A growing number of states, however, have moved to amend those paraphernalia laws in recent years in response to the U.S. overdose crisis and a recognition that the use of drug-checking equipment can be a safe and cost-effective way to save lives.
What’s next?
The bill from Salzman — a pro-gun Republican who has demonstrated markedly less concern for deaths by firearm or those caused by Israeli troops overseas — has been filed for consideration by the Florida Legislature during the 2026 state legislative session. Next year’s legislative session begins Jan. 13, 2026, and is scheduled to last 60 days, through March 13.
The bill will have to be approved by a majority of members in smaller legislative committees, then receive majority approval from both the Florida House and Senate. The bill would take effect July 1, 2026, if approved.

‘THE WORLD NEEDS UNITY’
Orlando’s FusionFest celebrates culture, community and the power of showing up
BY EMMY BAILEY
“When I saw people gathering together and sharing these cultural, artistic, community experiences, I really felt that this was the place that I wanted to be,” says FusionFest executive director María Fernanda Saavedra.
And indeed, FusionFest succeeds because it imparts a sense of belonging to all present. Beyond borders and nations, at its best FusionFest demonstrates that all cultures have a place in Orlando’s ever-growing community through direct connection.
Eight years since it debuted downtown, FusionFest returns to the Dr. Phillips Center’s Seneff Arts Plaza with its mission unchanged:
Celebrate the cultures that shape Orlando through their food, dance, music, art and storytelling.
FusionFest didn’t begin in a boardroom. It began in living rooms, community gatherings and conversations among neighbors as Orlando’s population exploded with new residents from across the globe.“We wanted to put together a nice space that everybody felt included in. I think that’s one of the big successes about this festival, that this festival is for everybody,” Saavedra says.
What started as a generous handful of participants has since grown into a sprawling, collaborative event involving artists, performers, nonprofits and international organizations. This expansion hasn’t been a smooth climb. FusionFest,
like many arts organizations, has faced a year that Saavedra describes as “one of the hardest yet.”
“This has been a very difficult year, not just for FusionFest, but for arts and culture, social services, and all kinds of organizations that sustain themselves by grants,” Saavedra says. “We’re just trying hard, like every other organization, to keep it going.”
Even amidst adversity there have been positives — collaborations with the Orlando Museum of Art, expanded community partnerships and the recent exhibition at Orlando International Airport featuring 10 visual artists, Art of Joy.
“FusionFest is not a one-person organization,” Saavedra says.“It’s many people. We all contribute in different ways.”
One program very close to Saavedra’s heart is the Migration Films project. “We pair one member of the community with one filmmaker and create these five-minute short films,” she says. “It shows how we are so alike and so different at the same time.”
Saavedra says her own story mirrors that of many participants.
“I am part of FusionFest because I felt that my country — I’m from Colombia — [should be] represented somewhere,” she explains. “Not just among Colombians, but in the community.”
Amid contentious national debates over diversity and inclusion, Saavedra believes FusionFest’s

mission is unchanged and resolute.“Diversity is the future. Inclusion is the key. And the world needs unity,” she says.
This year’s festival features new additions, including a “Joyful Tent” presented by Joyful Orlando with Global Peace Film Festival 360, offering cross-cultural mental wellness and consciousness practices. Families can enjoy arts and crafts at a kids’ area, and there will even be a goat-petting zone (a unifier if there ever was one).
“Don’t stay home,” Saavedra says. “Come to FusionFest. Bring your kids. Bring your friends. This festival is for everybody.”
And for anyone who shows up, she promises real human connection, stripped of social media fog.
“When you see all kinds of flags, colors and countries being represented, it makes a true statement that we genuinely want to be part of this organization,” she says. “Every time is a learning experience for me. It adds value to your life.” arts@orlandoweekly.com

This year’s IAAPA Expo was so overstuffed that it made the Orange County Convention Center’s enormous new Grand Concourse seem like a good idea
Epic Universe has barely been officially open for six months, but the impact of Universal’s new theme park can already be observed not only within Orange County — whose tourist tax revenues hit record levels this summer, thanks largely to the three new hotels — but across the entire amusement industry. Evidence? The four prestigious Themed Entertainment Association THEA awards that were presented to the park and its top attractions at a private party held inside Epic’s Isle of Berk during last week’s annual International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Expo.
IAAPA, as it is affectionately known, draws more than 41,000 attendees to the Orange County Convention Center (more than the daily population of most theme parks, but a fraction of the 325,000 at July’s AAU Junior Volleyball tournament), injecting over $104 million into the area’s
economy. And for the first time in my nearly 20 years of covering IAAPA, overflowing parking lots, overcrowded press conferences and overloaded WiFi have finally made me think that OCCC’s enormous new Grand Concourse — scheduled to break ground in December and debut in late 2029 — might actually be needed. However, if future theme park historians look back on 2025 as a high-water mark for the attractions industry, it may end up being because brain rot is about to make the amusement business crash out. IAAPA has always been a welcoming home for both the sublime and the ridiculous, where you can see advancements in crucial safety systems alongside singing penguins, but a fair number of this year’s announcements — some involving reputable industry veterans — were notable for their apparent absurdity. Nearly 15 years after Orlando performance artist Brian Feldman first locked himself inside a skill crane game like an oversized prize, Family Entertainment Group’s Human Crane Experience now lets you be the crane, hoisted above a giant pit of plushies. Stand-up comic Nate Bargatze is teaming with Storyland Studios to build a “Nateland” theme park near Nashville. Most distressingly, inappropriate uses of artificial intelligence were seemingly everywhere, from AI slop concept art to a ChatGPT-powered robot from Advanced Animations (recently purchased by Disney’s animatronic builder, Garner Holt)
that made dystopian boasts about not needing a 401(k) or health insurance.
On the positive side, the VR craze of years past has definitively cooled in favor of augmented and mixed reality experiences, which allow guests to interact with virtual images while still touching grass. Haptics are having a heyday in the arcades, where Cyberpunk 2077: Turf Wars players fire pellets at physical props that are digitally animated using projection mapping. AStation used Apple Vision Pros to turn a corner of the convention center parking lot into a paleontology museum, with T-rexes towering overhead. Best of all, DreamPark can bring the block-punching fun of Super Nintendo World to any open area with a Meta Quest 3S.
Although not every IAAPA announcement can be a winner — and nothing new was officially unveiled for either Walt Disney World or Universal Orlando — here’s a round-up of projects that will (or may) soon make an impact here in Central Florida:
• If you miss designing your car at EPCOT’s last version of Test Track, Legoland Florida will let you do something similar before boarding Galacticoaster. Opening early next year, the park’s first indoor roller coaster (which is also being cloned in California) has an interactive preshow where guests use RFID wristbands to customize their LEGO spaceship.
• SeaWorld Orlando showed off the ride vehicle
TACOS & VIBES? SAY LESS.
for SeaQuest: Legends of the Deep, a suspended indoor dark ride opening in 2026. A first-of-itskind model from coaster manufacturer Vekoma, the submarine-styled pods dangle from an overhead track (like Peter Pan’s Flight) and can tilt and rotate for mild simulator-style effects. I’m looking forward to seeing the ride system in action, while hoping the accompanying story and theming don’t suffer the same fates as SeaWorld’s Antarctica and Journey to Atlantis.
• Mack Rides unveiled the boats bound for Dollywood’s NightFlight Expedition, an ambitious $50 indoor water ride in the Pigeon Forge park’s Wildwood Grove section. This “Rocking Boat” model, which made its debut earlier this year in France’s Futurescope as an outdoor ride, can navigate both free-floating rapids and flumestyle drops, and has been rumored as the basis of a “Creature From the Black Lagoon” expansion for Epic’s Dark Universe. However, after seeing the 10-passenger ride vehicles — which will only be able to handle about 1,200 guests per hour, instead of the 2,000-plus most aquatic E-Tickets are capable of — I’m thinking they’re gonna need a bigger boat.
• The best-looking ride vehicle on display at IAAPA was Intamin’s roller coaster reinterpretation of Dom Toretto’s 1970 Dodge Charger, which will soon be launching along Universal Studios Hollywood’s hillside as part of next year’s Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift. My hope is that the new ride replacing Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit at Universal Studios Florida will be a sister to that high-speed spinning coaster, allowing USF to evict their current crappy Fast & Furious attraction. My vote for a Supercharged replacement: Slap a flux capacitor on the back of the Family’s party bus, and put the AI that stretched The Wizard of Oz across Vegas’ Sphere to better use resurrecting Back to the Future: The Ride.
• Finally, S&S made a surprise announcement that a massive drop tower and launched roller coaster — possibly the tallest in Florida — are coming to Mango’s Tropical Cafe on the corner of I-Drive and Sand Lake. I was there when the now-canceled Polercoaster was promised for across the street, so forgive me if I say, “Fool me once …”

SPICE OF THE PIE
Mazala Pijja fires Indian-style pizzas, pastas and spins on sports bar classics
BY FAIYAZ KARA
Sunny Corda has been an instrumental figure in championing Indian cuisine across this city with Mynt in Hannibal Square, Indian Pavilion in Winter Garden, and Saffron and Madras Café in Dr. Phillips, among others. He even ventured a bit outside his comfort zone when he opened Simply Gyros and Malaysian restaurant Rasa, both of which were eventually replaced by the aforementioned Madras Café. Point is, Corda’s not afraid to take a chance, and I sense he was doing just that in opening Mazala Pijja, a restaurant specializing in Indian-style pizza in the former Gully/Daana Pani/Bombay Cafe space on South OBT.
Desi pies have gained traction in large cities across North America, and with Orlando’s sizable population, I’m sure Corda thought, why not here? Why not, indeed. In a space that’s seen three different concepts in the past five years, perhaps a fusion pizza concept will stick.
My pals, however, were a bit incredulous, and the bright, modern space with its Scandi lighting, wood tables and blue velour chairs wasn’t doing
much to change their minds. But biting into a slice of the butter chicken pizza ($20) had them rethinking their stance.
The crust, made from all-purpose flour, cornmeal and Indian spices, was sturdy enough to withstand the heavy weight of the curried sauce, chicken chunks, mozzarella, green peppers and onions — which, contradicting the menu, weren’t caramelized. It’s just that the crust seemed a lot more perfunctory than precise — a pizza where the toppings drive the pie and the crust takes a back seat. Either way, it really should be more than just, pardon the extended pun, a vehicle for sauce and fixings. I’d rather see a variation of naan as the pizza’s foundation, or perhaps a pan or Neapolitan crust, as other Indian pizza houses employ. Nevertheless, the flavors of the toppings proved wholly gratifying. In the lamb seekh kebab pizza ($22), the sausage-like slivers added a bold spicing to the pie. Were they a bit dry? Yes. And that’s where a proper-good crust can offset any topping mishaps on a pijja. That word, BTW, is Hinglish for “pizza,”

while “Mazala” is a fusion of the Hindi words masala (spices) and maza (fun).
There are certainly fun, fusiony spins on sports bar standards to be had here — fried, tangy achari chicken wings flavored with Indian pickling spices and served with a buffalo sauce ($14) were quickly gobbled up, along with dosa onion rings ($12). An urad dal lentil batter, of the sort used for dosas and medhu vada, caked those onion rounds to the point that they looked like doughnuts; an accompanying mango chutney proved too cloying a dip.
There are pastas like tandoori spaghetti ($15) and malai rigatoni ($15) to keep the fun going, but another fusion menu of Indo-Chinese classics has been introduced, perhaps as a sort of failsafe. So, as we popped crispy-coated morsels of the fiery chicken 65 ($14), the jury was still out as to whether this whole Indian pizza thing would pan out in this backroom space inside the Laxmi Plaza. If anything, eating the leftovers out of the fridge the following day did prove one thing — cold fusion is possible.
OPENINGS & CLOSINGS:
Walter’s Tavern has opened inside the Great Southern Box Co. Food Hall in the Packing District.

AIN’T NO PARTY LIKE AN ORLANDO HOUSE PARTY
Suga Live features a whole world of R&B — and Brandon Vee — on Thanksgiving eve
BY AZLYN CATO
What better way to jumpstart the holiday season than with a backyard-style R&B party in the heart of Mills 50? Or at least, so says Dennis Mero, local DJ and founder of the Orlando House Party collective, who will be celebrating Thanksgiving eve with Suga Live!, a night of live performance, tropical beats and good vibes.
Why Thanksgiving eve? Mero says that from the moment their event series was created a few years ago, he saw this particular night as a natural gathering point — a time when out-oftowners visit and the City Beautiful fills with people home for the holidays.
“Honestly, we’re just super excited to have everybody come together right before the

7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 26 Grape & the Grain 1110 Virginia Drive grapeandthegrain.com $16-$19
Mero says their events also create opportunities to gather and showcase Orlando’s many talented musicians across cultures.
To that end, OHP and Suga have a very special guest lined up for Wednesday. Orlando-based R&B artist Brandon Vee and his backing ensemble are taking the stage for a live set at the party.
“His energy is incredible, and the people feel it,” Mero says of Vee, who doesn’t play out much locally.“And I feel a lot of, not only myself, but the crowd seems like they always feel empowered after his sets or his music. And more now than ever, I believe that that’s so important to have in our community to feel, with as much as things are going on in the world. I feel that his breath, his words, his music, is very necessary in the community, because it does heal. It helps heal.”
Mero, who will be closing out the night with a DJ set, says his own journey spinning records started while organizing events in Orlando, something he’s been doing since 2001. At one of his earlier events, Urban Jazz Funk, which also featured live bands, Mero says they would always make sure to include a vinyl-only DJ set, spinning dance and hip-hop classics from the 1990s.
holidays,” Mero says. “I think it’s always nice to get into the holiday season with seeing friends and family and just smiling and just trying to get excited for the next day and for the rest of the year.”
Unlike your typical R&B party, Mero says that Suga was specifically created with uplifting the Orlando community as a central tenet. So instead of slower, sensual energy (all the better for romancing, as Barry White would doubtless attest), a more energetic, multi-genre fusion was the end goal.
An Orlando native since 1993, Mero says Suga started from a feeling that the local R&B party scene wasn’t evolving. After traveling the world and spending a good chunk of his life living in Miami, Mero wanted to turn Orlando heads on to international takes and twists on R&B sounds.
And so, Suga Live was born as a recurring night featuring R&B tracks paired with the remixes, edits and flips that were being uploaded to SoundCloud from all over at the time. Mero says this fusion is what makes the party so unique, as it brings together younger and older generations of music fans.
Although he wasn’t DJing at the time, Mero says being around other DJs inspired him to start learning to play and mix vinyl. A few years later, he wound up DJing for one of his smaller events, which he says pushed him to move beyond hosting and curating and dive deeper into spinning records on his own.
“I love music and I love all genres of music,” says Mero. “So I think that was one of the things that inspired my DJ[ing], to be able to like, in my sets, to be able to cater to so many different people, especially because I’ve lived here for so long, and I’ve had a great music experience here in Orlando. I know who lives here, like the real Orlando, and nothing makes me happier than to be able to play music that they can feel nostalgic and the same time have a good time and dance and sing.”
Mero says Suga Live nights showcase what he feels is “the true Orlando.” To him, even the venue, Grape & The Grain — home to an eclectic slate of events — shows Orlando’s melting pot of creative diversity.
And with an entire live band giving their all in the backyard of Grape & The Grain, Mero says it’s definitely going to feel very homey.
“I’m excited about going and stepping into the holidays and getting people in a great mood right before Thanksgiving,” Mero says. “So my goal is to keep people dancing and singing right before the holiday season.”

LOCAL RELEASES
Could Orlando breaks be at the dawning of a new wave? It could be. And from some of the underground sounds that’ve come out in recent years, it won’t just be a throwback for retro’s sake. That there is an important distinction.
When Orlando breaks first emerged in the early 1990s rave revolution as the big-bass cousin to breakbeat, it permanently etched our city into EDM history as not just a world-class dance scene at the time but one that sired its own original sound. But by the late 1990s — after adjacent styles like big beat had pierced the mainstream — breaks was overrun with cheap knockoffs, signaling a genre that had run out of ideas.
Recently, however, young artists have been reviving the form in ways both faithful and innovative. Of the current native artists to emerge, two of the brightest are Arina Krondeva and Propah Ganda. Individually, they’ve been releasing noteworthy music. Together, though, they’ve just planted a flag that’s the most cogent declaration yet that there’s a discrete new generation of talent and relevance brewing for Orlando EDM.
Arina Krondeva and Propah Ganda have merged forces to release the joint 407 F.R. EP, and it’s the most deeply local work of music seen in ages. The four-song collection is a new Orlando touchstone whose conceptual motif comes from field recordings made on a walk through the city, specifically downtown and the Milk District. Yet it’s less the field recordings than the actual music crafted by the two collaborators that beats loudest with an Orlando pulse.
The most immediate nods to Orlando breaks are sleek bumper “Lights Behind” and acid banger “Lucy” (a track named after Lake Eola’s celebrity goose), both of which keep the bass

good, heavy and constant. The other two cuts are dynamic hybrids, with “Humidity” blending classic hard breakbeat with mechanical techno stomp while “‘I Took Acid and the City Was Humming in 303” oscillates between house and dark, grinding breaks.
The 407 F.R. EP is at once a reclamation and a furtherance of Orlando’s famous EDM signature. Yes, there are clear salutes to the classic sounds. But true to the work that Krondeva and Propah Ganda have each already been doing, the angle here is more progressive than revivalist, with a left-field intelligence that even some of the original Orlando legends didn’t have.
In pedigree, heart and inspiration, 407 F.R. is so local that it’s a layer cake of terroir. The collection is indeed a summit between two of the
most eminent young torchbearers of Orlando’s storied EDM legacy. Perhaps even more than that, though, it is at long last an auspicious and forward vision of Orlando breaks. The EP now streams everywhere.
CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK
Wheeler Newman, Paul Mauceri, Distant Stations: As forecast in my September coverage of his hiatus-breaking first new release in eight years, esteemed Orlando musician Wheeler Newman is officially back on the scene.

This Wednesday’s Thanksgiving Eve rave-up tweaks the familiar formula to host an eclectic line-up of Orlando All-Stars: Kimball Collins, Dave Cannalte, Jimmy Joslin, Magic Mike, DJ Icey, BMF, Cliff T and Carlos Mendoza (the latter two going hard with a tag-team all-vinyl retro set). “The vibe of the night celebrates a selection of DJs who have years in the profession in Orlando as trailblazers and successful artists,” explains Icey to Orlando Weekly. “For my set I will be incorporating remixes from late-night jams that were played in The Edge nights, among other remixes,” he adds. “This set will be all remixes spanning genres but all breakbeat or Electro Bass-style.” Icey credits 1990s AAHZ shows at the Beacham for kickstart-
ing the Orlando dance music boom, so there’s plenty of history in these walls. Maybe some more will be made Wednesday. 8 p.m., The Beacham, 46 N. Orange Ave., foundation-presents.com, $20-$75. — MM
WEDNESDAY, NOV. 26
Lindsey Stirling
In much the same way as Sarah Brightman, Mariah Carey and Michael Bublé (and, latterly, Ezra Ray Hart) have become as ubiquitous as Bing and Nat once were, 20-something violinist Lindsey Stirling is staking her claim to the Christmas music market share quite convincingly. She’s currently on her eighth holiday tour, Snow Waltz, and returning to Orlando for some caroling. Setlists combine her holiday songs with her more familiar classical violin-meets-EDM work. The production, choreography and costumes are as involved as, say, a high-dollar production of The Nutcracker, and Stirling is completely committed to the bit. At one point she even soars above the audience, not unlike a certain sleigh. 7:30 p.m., Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org, $77.50-$495.50. — MM

Elena Rose
Formerly a songwriter to the stars, Elena Rose penned hits for the likes of Bad Bunny, Rauw Alejandro and Karol G before stepping out on her own with debut album En Las Nubes Con Mis Pana in 2024. From there it was off the races for the Venezuelan-American singer, a blur of chart-topping singles, festival performances including Coachella, and a major crossover collab with Ed Sheeran. Fresh off a showstopping performance and nabbing a songwriter award for Song of the Year a couple of weeks ago at the Latin Grammys, she’s now on a U.S. headlining

SUNDAY, NOV. 30
Spending Christmas With Alicia Witt
Alicia Witt brings holiday spirit to the stage with a festive evening of Christmas music, featuring songs from her 2024 Christmas album I Think I’m Spending Christmas With You. Witt made her film debut in the 1984 film Dune at the age of 7 after being discovered by David Lynch. Her career has spanned over four decades — taking in Vanilla Sky, John Waters’ Cecil B. Demented and even Longlegs, with a lucrative side hustle as a Hallmark Christmas movie staple. She is bringing that wholesome spirit to Orlando with a performance that blends her original holiday songs with classic favorites for a cozy seasonal set. 12:30 p.m. & 5 p.m., Judson’s Live, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org, $50-$60 — Emmy Bailey
TUESDAY, DEC. 2
Cowgirl Clue
Enigmatic singer and producer Cowgirl Clue is a one-off in an ever more homogeneous pop-industrial complex: a hyper-pop maestro who suffuses her sound and imagery with country music tropes. And it works! The windswept vistas and beatup trucks in promo photos and the occasional twang surfacing in the sleek-synthy haze and future-forward beats in “Rodeo Star” and “Left Unsaid” make for compelling listening. And she’s no novelty act. Last time she played Conduit, she packed out the joint. This time should be no different. So mount up and ramble over. 7 p.m., Conduit, 6700 Aloma Ave., Winter Park, conduitfl. com, $20. — MM

Meet Nite Train!
Most people walk right past Nite Train (A582844). All they see is a scarred, quiet, scary-looking dog. Nothing could be further from the truth. Sure, Nite Train is big, strong, 3 years old and 70 pounds of muscle, but he is shy, sweet, playful with other dogs, and genuinely wants a connection with people.
It’s clear that he was possibly abused and mistreated in his lifetime, as he bears the deep scars on his face of a life spent in the streets. Nite Train flinches at first, afraid of hands coming close to him. But once he feels safe, he will seek out affection quietly, gently nudging his muscular head into our hands. To be touched. To be loved. He may look intimidating, but Nite Train is a sweetheart, a quiet boy waiting and hoping for his day to come. Let’s get him a home.
