The Arabian Nights Dinner Show in Orlando Florida

By Andrew W John

Since 1988, the Arabian Nights Dinner Show has been a huge attraction, inspiring awe in visitors to Orlando, Florida with each show. This, the ultimate in dinner shows, is staged in the largest indoor equestrian center in the world used for a permanent show.

This show tells the magical tale of Princess Scheherazade and her search for her true love Prince Khalid. The story is told with a cast of more than 65 horses, thrilling horsemanship and beautiful, eye catching costumes. The very latest in sound, lighting and special effects technology is used to bring this story to life. The Arabian Nights Dinner Show is a truly unforgettable experience for anyone who sees it.

From the moment you enter the Palace of Horses - with its 1200 person capacity - you will be enthralled by the Arabian magic in the air - and taken to your seats which are all designed to give impeccable stage views. Horse lovers will be able to marvel at the beauty and athleticism of Arabian Horses, the charismatic Andalusian horses, heavy horses such as Belgians and Percherons, the Painted horses that are so symbolic of the American West and, the undoubted star of the show, the Black Stallion. Walter Farley's Black Stallion, featured in books, films and television series, has become emblematic of the Arabian Nights Dinner Show - and rightly so, he is mightily impressive.

If you are accustomed to the food at typical Dinner Shows, then you know it can be a little predictable and bland - and sometimes barely warm. Prepare yourself for a surprise then. The Arabian Nights Dinner Show will confound these preconceptions. For your main course, you can choose from New York Strip Steak, Grilled Chicken Breast, Black Angus Chopped Steak or a Primavera Penna Pasta Bowl (which can be prepared as suitable for vegans as well as vegetarians). In addition, there's a fresh salad and a delicious dessert - as well as unlimited beer, wine or Pepsi products. And the food is good! If you have special dietary needs, then, as long as you give the venue prior notice, this won't present them with any problems.

The Arabian Nights Dinner Show has been in the hands of Mark Galen Miller and his family from the very beginning 20 years ago and has developed into the most honored show of its kind in the world - regularly winning awards such as Best Theme Restaurant, Best Dinner Theater, Best Performing Arts Group and Venue - and many more. Because the show is constantly re-inventing itself and evolving because of the skilful introduction of new ideas, many people return time after time.

This is a great event sure to entertain the whole family. The show has it all - spectacle, color, magic; all put together with unparalleled equestrianism and amazing choreography. There's even a chariot race offering even more excitement to the show. The star of the show though, without a doubt is the Black Stallion who even performs solo; no rider or halter!

The Arabian Nights Dinner Show is one of the best parts of any visit to Orlando and is one sure to be remembered forever. For an extra ten dollars per visitor, you can get the VIP package which includes a complimentary drink in the VIP lounge and a chance to get backstage and meet the stars before the show. Also included is a free poster and seats in the first three rows, putting you right there in the middle of all the action.

The Arabian Nights Dinner Show is a must-see for everyone who loves the excitement and spectacle of live theater. - 30423
