With up to 13 bedrooms, there’s room for the whole gang to join the pop-culture adventure with enough space to relax or get ready for each day’s activities. Kick back in bedrooms themed after your favorite superheroes and movies to get in the zone for day’s extravaganzas.

Get hyped for the convention by hosting Movie Night in the home theater. The ultimate dine-in experience is just a phone call away with our Chef & Bartender Experience. Hop over to the resort’s water park for a day of splashes and thrills with the six premier slides, kids’ splash zone, adult pool, and private cabanas. For the free days of your retreat, Orlando’s world-famous theme parks are just a complimentary shuttle ride away.
Fun at MegaCon Orlando
Once you’ve all situated yourselves into your resort home, it’s time to dress up as your favorite characters and head on over to the Orange County Convention Center for MegaCon.
Celebrity Guests
What better way to enjoy your beloved franchises than by meeting the celebrities who’ve brought them to life? Arrowverse fans will meet Grant Gustin, Stephen Armell, Tyler Hoechlin, and other actors from the series for questions they’ve always had about their favorite characters. Catch up with Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Molly Ringwald, and Anthony Michael Hall for a Breakfast Club reunion.
With visits from Doctor Who’s Matt Smith, Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown, and iconic actors Dolph Lundgren and Andy Serkis, there’s no shortage of opportunities for autographs. Anime fans come face-to-face with the actors behind the voices of the heroes they grew up on. Frank Miller, Scott Snyder, Gerry Conway, Marco Checchetto, and other comic book creators stop by to tell the tales of their inspirations, a treat for those who aspire to become legends in the comic book industry themselves.
Activities & Attractions
Keep the fandom fun going with sketch duels where your favorite comic artists show off their illustration skills. Stop by anime panels to learn about new manga developments and what’s down the line for major shounen series. The Game Zone is a haven for competitive gamers who want to show off their skills in Tekken 8, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Super Smash Bros, and other top titles while making friends along the way. The classics of GameCube, Sega Genesis, and NES await at the Retro Arcade for a friendly reminder of what got you into gaming.
Horror fans watch makeup artists bring their favorite fearsome creatures to life at Vamp Makeup School. Channel your inner Stars Wars rebel at Blast-A-Trooper with a donation that lets you take aim at Storm Troopers with nerf guns. Cosplayers’ dreams come true with red carpets, meetups, panels, and competitions perfect for turning fiction into reality. For the main events, smile for celebrity photo ops to show off on social media and bring home autographs to frame and remember your trip for years to come.
