Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Students at Rollins go out at night quite frequently. Whether people are going to a house party or to a club in downtown Orlando, one can almost always count on something going on. Rollins students serve as promoters for clubs and bars around Winter Park and in Orlando, and these student promoters are constantly reminding everyone where the parties are via Facebook event invites. At the beginning of each week, there are usually a few different Facebook events that Rollins students receive. The nice thing about the clubs and bars in and around Orlando is that most of them let 18-year-olds in. One bad thing about Winter Park is the strict police. House parties are often broken up by the police. Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday nights are the most popular nights for Rollins students to go out. 

Most of the clubs in Orlando are dressy and expensive. Rollins students often buy tables at the clubs, and girls can drink for free quite easily. Vodka is definitely the drink of choice of students at Rollins, and if you don't like hard alcohol, then come prepared to buy your own drinks at the bar. The club scene revolves around a lot of loud music, alcohol, and dirty dancing.

Something to Do Every Night of the Week

Rollins is located next to Park Ave., which is a street filled with high end restaurants, bars and shops. The restaurants usually have happy hours and the bars have specials to attract the college crowd. You will always see someone you know on Park Ave. around happy hour. The College Quarter, an off campus housing neighborhood, is great for house parties. If you get sick of the scene within walking distance, downtown Orlando is only a 15 min cab ride away. Church St. is full of clubs and bars, and traffic is closed off to this street. Not being 21+ is not an issue for most clubs.

Antigua

A Rollins favorite, Antigua is an upscale club in the heart of trendy downtown Orlando. The club is strict on dress and tries to create a sophisticated ambiance, with giant aquariums inside and a sleek bar. Generally, the club blasts Top 40 music while college kids grind on the dance floor, and the bravest of girls head to the stage.

Spatz Deli & Billiard Liquor

Located down the road from campus, Spatz is the bar most often rented out by frats and sororities for party nights. This relatively small bar and pool hall gets extremely crowded on Rollins nights. Dress is very casual; however, most of the Greek life-sponsored nights have themes.

Drake's

Drake's has quickly become the popular Thursday night hangout for Rollins students. There is a full bar with a dance floor and DJ, a separate room for beer pong, and the cover charge is cheap. The security is strict and will throw people out who are drinking without a 21-and-up wristband, but they also let you pay cover again to get back in.

565 W. Fairbanks Ave.

Winter Park

(407) 513-4815

Fiddler's Green

Fiddler's is a blast, and it is within walking distance from campus. A typical Irish bar with live music and plenty of beer, Fiddler's is small and often hard to walk around, but it is always a good time. The bouncers are strict on IDs, though, and it is usually hard to get in if you are not 21.
