That's right, BoardWalk street performers are back! As far as I know, there isn't a set performance schedule, but usually from 6:30 or 7:00 PM to about 10:00 or 10:30 PM on any given night you may spot jugglers, magicians, jump ropers, and other talented acts.

As of 2026, the lively street atmosphere of the Disney BoardWalk has seen a significant return of the evening entertainment that defines its nostalgic charm. While the specific "BoardWalk buskers"—such as the magicians, jugglers, and card trick artists—faced a long hiatus, they are once again part of the nightly rotation. Guests can expect to see these varied performers appearing roughly between 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM, weather permitting, transforming the lakeside promenade into a turn-of-the-century carnival scene. Additionally, the 2026 season has introduced specialized musical acts and seasonal street performers that coincide with events like the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts. This revitalized entertainment schedule, paired with the recently updated dining locations like the BoardWalk Deli and the Cake Bake Shop, has successfully restored the area’s reputation as a premiere nighttime destination for guests staying at the nearby resorts.
