The building everyone photographs

You've seen it driving down International Drive: a full building, upside down, roof in the dirt. That's WonderWorks — an indoor "edu-tainment" park of 100+ hands-on exhibits (earthquake and hurricane simulators, a ropes course, laser tag, and a 4D theater) built inside the fiction that a top-secret laboratory got flipped by an experiment gone wrong.

The dinner show inside it

WonderWorks' evening anchor is the Outta Control Magic Dinner Show — billed as Orlando's longest-running dinner show, and per its own promo an evening that is part magic, part comedy, and part dinner, unlike anything else in town. Unlimited pizza, salad, beer, wine, and soda come with the ticket while the magician works the room. For families based on I-Drive, it's the easiest dinner-and-a-show booking in the corridor — no park ticket required.
