The NEW Orlando City Stadium
Located in downtown Orlando, sits the home of Orlando City Soccer Club. It is two blocks from the Amway Center and within walking distance of the downtown bar district, said to be one of the best locations of any soccer stadium in the country!
Orlando City Stadium opened on 5th March last year, with the first match against New York City. As the 2018 season starts, the stadium still looks spectacular and is ready for Orlando City's first match which will be on 3rd March against D.C. United.
Fun Facts
