A new announcement from Luke Combs reveals that his bar, restaurant and entertainment venue is expanding beyond downtown Nashville and another recently announced Las Vegas location. The establishment, dubbed Category 10, is set to open a third location on CityWalk at Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando, FL.
Much like its flagship location in Music City and its upcoming place in Sin City, the Orlando venue will pay tribute to Combs’ 8x platinum, No. 1 debut hit “Hurricane,” while highlighting standout moments from his career and hit-filled catalog throughout the 33,000-square-foot, three-story space.
The country star expressed that he is eager and excited to bring the Cat 10 experience to Orlando, which is targeted to open in late 2027. The new space will offer guests live music, free line dancing, and a menu inspired by his North Carolina roots, all in a fresh, immersive setting.
“I have a line in my song ‘1, 2 Many,’ ‘there’s no stopping me once I get goin’. Well, I guess you can say the same about Cat 10 now,” said Luke Combs. “I know Orlando is a worldwide destination spot, so I’m super pumped and humbled that we’re getting to open a location there. My wife is from Florida, so we’re both super excited about this. I am glad to be bringing our brand of first-class service and awesome tunes to the Sunshine State.”
Category 10 first opened its doors in Nashville, Tennessee in 2024 and will soon be found in Las Vegas location, with place to debut in fall 2026. Combs won’t be the only country act with his name on a business throughout Nashville, Las Vegas and Orlando. He joins Blake Shelton’s Ole Red, a restaurant, bar and live music venue owned and operated by Opry Entertainment Group, that can also be found in locations across the same three cities.
“Country music is reaching more people nationally and internationally than ever before, driven in large part by superstars like Luke Combs,” said Colin Reed, Executive Chairman of OEG parent company Ryman Hospitality Properties. “With Orlando welcoming millions of visitors from around the globe each year, expanding the Category 10 footprint into this world-class entertainment destination allows us to introduce visitors to an authentic country music experience inspired by Luke’s Carolina roots.”
Construction on the new Category 10 Orlando venue is slated to begin in summer 2026. Opry Entertainment Group is expected to roll out additional details over time.
This news comes amid an already busy year for the “Sleepless In A Hotel Room” singer. Personally, he is preparing to announce the arrival of his third child with wife Nicole any day now. Career-wise, he has a brand-new album on the way. The 22-songThe Way I Am collection is set to drop March 20, 2026.
Plus, Luke Combs will launch the 2026 My Kinda Saturday Night Stadium Tour this spring, bringing him to sold-out stadiums across the U.S., U.K., and Europe.
