One of Orlando’s signature festivals isn’t happening this year as the presenter regroups for the future. Creative City Project’s Immerse, which has transformed downtown for a weekend each fall since 2012, is ‘taking a pause,’ said executive director Heide Evans.Immerse is one of Central Florida’s most high-profile festivals as it annually brings thousands of people to experience concerts, dance performances and colorful art installations throughout the streets of downtown.Among past big-name and eye-popping acts: Cirque du Soleil, whose performer flew high over Orange Avenue; the Blue Man Group; the Orlando Magic drummers, performing from a 46-foot tall ‘scaffolding castle’ and ‘America’s Got Talent’ finalist Diavolo, whose acrobats delighted the crowd from a specially constructed outdoor stage.
