Blake Shelton's New Ole Red Orlando Location Will Open This Spring

Blake Shelton will continue to expand his Ole Red franchise. The country singer has revealed his plans to open a new restaurant and bar in Orlando, Florida on April 14.

Shelton will work with Ryman Hospitality Properties on the new Orlando-based Ole Red which will be located is Icon Park on International Drive, just up the street from Disney World. The structure will be two levels, covering 17,000-square-feet and accommodating around 500 people.

Similar to his other Ole Red locations, the venue will feature live music as well as indoor and outdoor private event areas. Additionally, the Orlando spot will offer a view of the Orlando Eye, a large Ferris wheel overlooking the city.

"We've brought Ole Red to some of my favorite places, and I’m excited to have another spot for country music fans to have fun with their friends and family," Shelton says in a press release. "I think it's impossible to visit Orlando and not have a good time, and that’s why I know Ole Red is going to fit right in."

Shelton's upcoming Orlando spot will be his fourth Old Red location. The original Ole Red opened in 2017 is located in the singer's hometown of Tishomingo, Oklahoma. Since then, Shelton has expanded to Nashville in 2018 and Gatlinburg, Tennessee in 2019.

Shelton is currently gearing up for a new leg of his "Friends And Heroes Tour" launching on February 13 in Portland, Oregon running through the end of March. Back again for the second half of the trek are supporting acts including Lauren Alaina, the Bellamy Brothers, John Anderson and Trace Adkins. All four of these artists were a part of the tour in 2019.
