Disney Springs is adding a new way to spend an afternoon or evening, and it leans into hands-on competition rather than rides or shows. Level99, a social gaming venue built around physical and mental challenges, has confirmed its opening date along with details on games, food, and tickets. Here is what you need to know before walking through the doors.
When Level99 Opens and When Tickets Go on Sale
Level99 opens at Disney Springs on June 29, 2026. You will find it on the West Side, in the space that previously held DisneyQuest and the NBA Experience. It sits next to the Drawn to Life Cirque du Soleil theater and across from House of Blues, which puts it in a busy part of the district.
Tickets go on sale a week ahead of the opening, on June 22, through Level99.com. If you are planning to visit during the first stretch of operation, securing a time slot early is a sensible move.
What the Venue Looks Like
The Disney Springs location spans 46,800 square feet across two floors, making it the largest Level99 built so far. A two-story bar anchors the space and serves as the central gathering point.
The venue features 63 mini-games and challenges, which is the most of any Level99 location to date. Beyond the games, you will find more than 40 original art pieces installed throughout the building, giving the space a distinct visual identity as you move between challenges.
How the Veloband Works
When you check in, you receive an RFID wristband called a Veloband. This band is the key to the whole venue, since it unlocks every challenge in the building and all of them are included with your admission.
To start a game, you tap the band on an entry screen, then play. You can retry games as often as you like and tackle them in any order. Each game runs about one to four minutes and is designed for groups of two to six people, so it works well for friends or families playing together.
The Three Ways to Play
Level99 organizes its challenges into three play styles, so you can pick what suits your group. Here is how each one works.
- Cooperative Challenge Rooms: Your group works together to solve a shared puzzle.
- Player-vs-Player Duels: Guests compete head to head against one another.
- Interactive art scavenger hunt: You search the venue to find specific pieces and clues.
The games span strength, dexterity, balance, and mental aptitude, so there is variety across the lineup. Each entry screen also lists skill and accessibility details, which helps players with mobility limitations choose what fits them.
The Signature Games
Three signature challenges headline the Disney Springs lineup. Each one tests a different mix of skills.
Axe Run sends players racing across a narrow beam while dodging swinging axes, with a finish button to hit as quickly as possible without stepping off. Ninja Swing tests strength and precision as players use ropes to cross a series of platforms, earning Stars based on how far the group gets without falling. Mansion Banquet casts players as a dinner party planner racing to solve logic puzzles and seat finicky guests with the right entree and drink before mealtime.
Food and Drink at the Two-Story Bar
Level99 runs a scratch kitchen at Disney Springs, with a menu built around Detroit-style pizza, wagyu burgers, and handcrafted cocktails. Local beer is available on tap as well. You can order at a first-floor kitchen window, at the bar, or from satellite bar carts on the second floor, which gives you flexibility while you play.
A few signature items stand out on the menu:
- Loaded Elote Guacamole: Charred corn, queso fresco, lime crema, Tajín, cilantro, and tortillas.
- Roni, Roni, Roni: A Detroit-style pizza made with 24-hour cold-fermented dough baked in a steel pan for a crispy cheese frico, topped with Ezzo cupping pepperoni, housemade red sauce, pecorino romano, Calabrian chili, and fresh basil.
- House Burger: 100% domestic wagyu, sharp white cheddar, caramelized onion, brown butter aioli, and brioche.
Tickets, Hours, and an Opening-Day Perk
Tickets start at $29.99 per player, with play intervals of 1.5 and 2.5 hours. The interval you choose determines how long you have to work through the challenges, so consider how much time your group wants to spend before booking. There is also a premium pass add-on that offers expedited check-in and special gifts.
Operating hours vary by day:
- Monday through Thursday: 11am to 10pm
- Friday: 11am to 11pm
- Saturday: 10am to 11pm
- Sunday: 10am to 10pm
If you plan to attend the opening, there is an added incentive. The first 500 players on opening day will receive a commemorative pin at entry.
Where This Fits in the Level99 Lineup
Disney Springs marks the fourth Level99 location overall. It joins existing venues in Natick, Massachusetts, Providence, Rhode Island, and Tysons, Virginia.
For visitors familiar with the brand, the Veloband system carries over, so your progress is saved between visits. That means you can pick up where you left off at any location and keep working up the leaderboard, even if you played at a different site first.
Conclusion
Level99 gives Disney Springs guests a new option centered on games, food, and friendly competition, opening June 29, 2026 with tickets available starting June 22. With 63 challenges, three play styles, a scratch kitchen, and ticket intervals to match different schedules, it is built for groups looking to spend focused time together. Review the hours, pick your interval, and book early through Level99.com if you want to play during the opening stretch.
