Catch a Game in Orlando: Magic, Orlando City, Pride & Solar Bears Near Windsor Cay

Orlando isn't just theme parks, it's a real sports town, and a game makes a great non-park night out. From your vacation home at Windsor Cay, downtown Orlando's main venues are only about a 30-minute drive, putting NBA basketball, two professional soccer teams, and minor-league hockey within easy reach.

Where do the Orlando Magic play?

The Orlando Magic (NBA) play at the Kia Center (formerly the Amway Center) at 400 West Church Street in downtown Orlando, roughly 25 miles, about a 30-minute drive from Windsor Cay. The arena also hosts concerts and big events year-round, so it's worth checking the calendar even outside basketball season.

Can you watch pro soccer near Disney?

Yes, and Orlando has two teams. Orlando City SC (MLS) and the Orlando Pride (NWSL) both play at Inter&Co Stadium, a soccer-specific stadium in the Parramore neighborhood just two blocks from the Kia Center. That means you can plan a downtown sports trip around whichever team is in season, with the same easy drive from the resort.

Is there ice hockey in Orlando?

There is. The Orlando Solar Bears play minor-league professional hockey in the ECHL, offering an affordable, family-friendly night of fast-paced action. It's a fun change of pace if your group wants something different from the parks.

Making a game night easy from your vacation home

Because the venues cluster together downtown, a game pairs well with dinner in the city. Drive in together from your vacation home, enjoy the game, and head back to your private pool afterward, with no resort curfew and no crowded hotel lobby. For larger groups splitting up between a game and a park day, a bigger home gives everyone room to do their own thing.
