Don't expect any new nightclubs in downtown Orlando anytime soon, as the ban on new nightclub opening in downtown has been extended for a further 6 months. The temporary ordinance introduced by Orlando City Council on March 20, 2023. that prevented any new nightclubs from opening in downtown Orlando has been extended. The original moratorium that was introduced to improve safety and address negative effects caused by the nightclubs in the downtown area was set to expire on September 20 this year. Now, following a vote by Orlando City Council, commissioners voted unanimously to extend the ban for an additional six months until March 20, 2024. The ordinance temporarily restricts the city from accepting, processing and deciding on applications for new permits and zoning approvals for nightclubs in the downtown area. It also established a new alcohol sales permitting process that would require any club or bar that sells alcohol between midnight and 2 am to obtain a special after-midnight permitt, have metal detectors, ID scanners and added security at the cost of the business owners. Orlando city commissioners say that they will use the 6 month extension to research further “appropriate regulations” for downtown nightclubs.

Rock band Tesla are returning to Florida in early 2024 following a run of sell out shows in the state earlier this year. California rock band TESLA are returning to Florida in 2024, with a show at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa on Tuesday, January 16, 2024. There will be a Social Media Pre-Sale, happening this Wednesday, August, 16 at 10 am. (Password: BEAT) With Tesla announcing this latest show, the bands legacy is alive and well as they continue to record and sell out venues all over the world. Kickstarting in Sacramento, California, in 1984, Tesla made a name for themselves with a blizzard of industry showcase gigs before scoring a record deal with Geffen. Their 1986 debut album, “Mechanical Resonance,” would eventually go platinum, sit comfortably in the Top 40 and produce hard rock hits like “Modern Cowboy” and “Little Suzi.” “The Great Radio Controversy” in 1989 brought in a new legion of fans, thanks to singles like “Heaven’s Trail (No Way Out)” and “Love Song.” This helped push the album into the Top 20 and double-platinum sales figures and allowed the band to earn full headlining status. In 1990, Tesla helped reshape the face of modern hard rock music by stripping down to the “Five Man Acoustical Jam,” a loose, informal collection of their biggest hits peppered with rock ‘n’ roll classics by the Beatles, Rolling Stones and others. The project inspired other major bands to perform similar acoustic storytelling shows. It also produced their biggest hit single, a cover of Five Man Electrical Band’s “Signs.” Today, Tesla continues to release new original music, live sets and more.
