Universal CityWalk<\/a> will be adding Category 10<\/a>, a Luke Combs<\/a>-driven entertainment venue, in late 2027, the country singer and Opry Entertainment Group<\/a> announced Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Groundbreaking is set for this summer, they said, on a three-story, 33,000-square-foot experience at Universal Orlando<\/a>. It will be the third Category 10 in existence, following the Nashville location that opened in 2024 and one in Las Vegas due to open this fall. The exact location of Category 10 within CityWalk has not been released.<\/p>\n

The Nashville location features line dancing, live music, a lounge, sports bar and rooftop bar.\u00a0 The menu includes burgers, sandwiches, ribs, salads, signature drinks and a 64-ounce \u201cgroup cocktail\u201d named Life of the Party.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m super-pumped and humbled that we\u2019re getting to open a location there,\u201d Combs said in the news release. \u201cMy wife is from Florida, so we\u2019re both super-excited about this. I am glad to be bringing our brand of first-class service and awesome tunes to the Sunshine State.\u201d<\/p>\n

Combs is known for songs including \u201cHurricane,\u201d \u201cWhen It Rains It Pours,\u201d \u201cBeautiful Crazy\u201d and \u201cBetter Together.\u201d His 2023 cover of Tracy Chapman\u2019s<\/a> \u201cFast Car\u201d<\/a> is one of his No. 1s on the U.S. country charts, and it reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 rankings.<\/p>\n
