About this event
Third Thursday Orlando is a vibrant monthly celebration of arts and culture in the heart of downtown Orlando. Held every third Thursday from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., this free event is open to the public and invites guests to explore a dynamic mix of visual art, live music, performances, and more. At the center of it all is CityArts Orlando, home to six ever-evolving galleries and a café. Each month, new exhibitions open with the featured artists in attendance—offering a chance to connect directly with the creatives behind the work. The Orange County Regional History Center also joins in by offering free admission throughout the evening. Each Third Thursday features curated artist talks and thematic programming, highlighting voices across Central Florida’s creative community. Beyond the galleries, the surrounding blocks come alive with happy hour specials at local pubs and restaurants, adding to the festive atmosphere. Guests are also encouraged to visit the ArtCube installation, a site-specific immersive artwork located at Interstruct Design + Build Firm in the Parramore district. Complimentary shuttle service is provided for easy access to this off-site experience, often showcasing interactive and thought-provoking installations by emerging local artists.
