If you’ve been following the drama, deception, and betrayals on NBC’s The Traitors: New Blood, Universal Orlando has just announced a new way to experience the show’s big finale. And if you haven’t had a chance to visit the limited-time Traitors-themed bar at Universal CityWalk, this might be your last opportunity to check it out before the experience disappears!
Universal Orlando Resort has announced a special watch party for the two-hour finale of NBC’s The Traitors: New Blood on Thursday, November 19, 2026. The event will take place at Universal’s Great Movie Escape in Universal CityWalk, which is currently home to a limited-time bar experience inspired by the reality competition series. The watch party begins at 8 PM, and admission is free and open to the public. However, seating will be limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Universal is also teasing several surprises throughout the evening, although specific details about those extras haven’t been revealed.

Explore ‘The Traitors: New Blood’ Bar at Universal CityWalk
The watch party isn’t the only reason fans of the series might want to visit Universal’s Great Movie Escape. The venue is also home to The Traitors: New Blood Bar, a limited-time experience featuring two distinct spaces inspired by the show.
Guests can explore:
The Library — First Floor
The Library is one of the two themed bar experiences, offering specialty beverages in a setting inspired by The Traitors: New Blood.
The Roundtable — Second Floor
Located on the second floor, The Roundtable offers another themed bar environment where guests can enjoy specialty drinks inspired by the competition series.
Throughout the venue, fans can also discover set elements and props from the show, including costumes worn by host Alan Cumming. It’s an opportunity to get a closer look at details inspired by the series while enjoying the themed atmosphere.
You Don’t Need a Ticket to Visit ‘The Traitors’ Bar
One important detail is that guests do not need to purchase admission to Universal’s Great Movie Escape to attend the watch party or visit The Traitors: New Blood Bar. Both experiences are accessible to the public without a separate admission ticket.
However, guests interested in participating in Universal’s Great Movie Escape attraction experiences will need to purchase admission separately. Specialty beverages are also available for purchase at the themed bars.
The Traitors Bar Is Closing November 21
If you’ve been wanting to visit The Traitors: New Blood Bar, you’ll need to act quickly. Universal has confirmed that Saturday, November 21, 2026, will be the final day for guests to experience the limited-time bar.
The themed experience is available Wednesdays through Sundays from 4 PM to 11 PM, giving fans a few remaining opportunities to explore the venue before it closes. That means the November 19 finale watch party will take place just two days before the bar’s final operating day.
For fans who can’t make it to the watch party, the two-hour finale of The Traitors: New Blood will also air on NBC on Thursday, November 19, at 8 PM Eastern/7 PM Central, with streaming available the following day on Peacock.
My Take
I love when Universal CityWalk hosts events like this, especially when they tie into an existing themed experience. The fact that the watch party is free makes it an easy option for fans who want to experience the finale with other viewers, and the added surprises could make the night even more interesting.
I also think it’s worth pointing out that the Traitors-themed bar is closing just two days later. If you’ve been wanting to check out The Library, The Roundtable, or the props and costumes from the show, this is a good opportunity to do it before the experience ends.
How do you think the finale of “The Traitors: New Blood” will end?
