Kia Center (Home of the Orlando Magic)
Compare everything from 15- to 50-passenger party buses to 56-passenger motorcoaches in one search when you head to Kia Center to cheer on the Orlando Magic or Orlando Solar Bears! Your whole fan group or visiting roster rides into Downtown Orlando together and steps right off at the arena.
Major Roadways to Kia Center
Drivers reach Kia Center directly via I-4 (using the Hughey Avenue, Amelia Street, or Anderson Street exits) and the SR 408 (East-West Expressway). Local downtown access runs along West Church Street, South Hughey Avenue, and South Division Avenue.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Kia Center
Active charter bus loading and unloading takes place along the designated commercial curb on West Church Street or South Division Avenue adjacent to the arena. Because Downtown Orlando strictly enforces a 5-minute commercial idling limit and prohibits unattended vehicles at the curb, have your entire group gathered outside before calling your driver in. The attached GEICO Garage has a strict 7’0” height clearance and cannot accommodate minibuses or motorcoaches.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Kia Center
Oversized vehicles park and stage in surface Lot 5 at 532 W Central Blvd (just northwest of the arena off Division Avenue) or in designated overflow surface lots near Camping World Stadium. Pre-purchasing an oversized bus pass through Kia Center guest services is strongly recommended before tip-off.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Two hours before Orlando Magic tip-off and major concerts, the Orlando Police Department closes West Church Street between Hughey Avenue and Division Avenue to create a pedestrian plaza. Rush-hour bottlenecks on I-4 through Downtown Orlando frequently overlap with weeknight 7:00 p.m. games. Plan to arrive at least 60 to 90 minutes early so your driver can clear the Church Street detours with zero stress.
Inter&Co Stadium (Home of Orlando City SC and the Orlando Pride)
With Bus
Major Roadways to Inter&Co Stadium
Motorcoaches approach the stadium via I-4 and the SR 408 (East-West Expressway) using Exit 9 for Orange Blossom Trail (US-441) or Exit 10A for Downtown. From there, West Central Boulevard, West Church Street, and Parramore Avenue connect directly to the stadium district.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Inter&Co Stadium
Charter buses drop off and pick up passengers along the outer perimeter of the stadium closure zone, primarily on West Central Boulevard near Parramore Avenue or along South Terry Avenue just east of Gate A. Because there is no pull-through bus loop directly at the turnstiles, your driver will pull up to the curb for active unloading only and depart immediately. After the final whistle, gather your entire group at the corner of Central Blvd and Terry Ave before texting your driver to pull up. That way, nobody is stuck fighting the post-match rideshare surge on Church Street!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Inter&Co Stadium
Because Inter&Co Stadium sits in a dense downtown footprint with limited surface lots immediately next door, oversized charter buses and party buses typically park in pre-reserved surface lots west of the venue toward Camping World Stadium. If you aren’t tailgating, your driver can also stage off-site at your hotel or along approved commercial zones outside the downtown core. Parking fees are paid separately from your bus rental quote, so reserve your oversized space in advance when multiple downtown venues have overlapping events. Need help coordinating multi-bus staging? Call the live team 365 days a year at (561) 493-2845!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
On Orlando City SC and Orlando Pride match days, West Church Street closes to all vehicle traffic between Terry Avenue and Parramore Avenue up to three hours before kickoff for the Mane Street Plaza fan fest. Glenn Lane and portions of Pine Street around the stadium perimeter also restrict through-traffic. Expect heavy pedestrian crossings marching from the downtown bars along Church Street. Arriving 90 minutes before kickoff ensures your group breezes through the gates in plenty of time for warmups.
Camping World Stadium (Home of the Citrus Bowl)
Bus
Major Roadways to Camping World Stadium
Buses traveling to Camping World Stadium rely on I-4 and the SR 408 (East-West Expressway), taking the exits for Orange Blossom Trail (US-441 / SR 500), John Young Parkway (SR 423), or Tampa Avenue. Local stadium corridors include West Colonial Drive (SR 50) to the north, West Gore Street to the south, and Rio Grande Avenue on the stadium’s west side. Because SR 408 is an all-electronic toll road, your charter bus comes equipped to handle toll plazas without slowing down. The confirmation team will review your exact approach route before game day so your driver hits the right lot entrance on the first pass.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Camping World Stadium
Groups utilizing a drop-off-only charter bus or 25-passenger minibus can unload along Rio Grande Avenue near West Church Street on the stadium’s west side, or at the designated group drop-off zone near Jones High School at Rio Grande Avenue and Carter Street. Buses are strictly prohibited from entering the rideshare zones at Lorna Doone Park unless holding a dedicated oversized lot permit. Coordinate a clear post-game meeting landmark with your driver—such as the Northwest Gate near Church Street and Rio Grande Avenue—so everyone boards together once the crowd clears.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Camping World Stadium
Camping World Stadium is one of the most motorcoach-friendly venues in Central Florida, offering dedicated RV and charter bus parking in Lot D (located at W Church St & Sitteigh St / Tampa Ave) and Lot 7 along Rio Grande Avenue. Oversized bus parking permits must be purchased in advance through the stadium box office, as day-of cash sales are rarely available for bowl games and major concerts. Tailgating is permitted right beside your bus within your assigned stall, making it easy to unload coolers and tents from the undercarriage bays!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Starting four to five hours before kickoff, the City of Orlando establishes a hard traffic perimeter closing West Church Street, South Tampa Avenue, Nashville Avenue, and Colyer Street immediately surrounding the stadium bowl to non-permitted vehicles. Only buses displaying a valid hangtag for Lot D or Lot 7 are waved through the police checkpoints along Rio Grande Avenue and Orange Blossom Trail. Build at least two hours of pre-game buffer time into your itinerary during the Pop-Tarts Bowl, Cheez-It Citrus Bowl, and Florida Classic weekend!
Acrisure Bounce House (Home of the UCF Knights)
Bus
Major Roadways to Acrisure Bounce House
Charter buses heading to the main University of Central Florida campus take SR 408 East and SR 417 (Central Florida GreeneWay) to University Boulevard (Exit 37) or Alafaya Trail (SR 434). From the north or east, East Colonial Drive (SR 50) and McCulloch Road feed directly onto Alafaya Trail and Gemini Boulevard.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Acrisure Bounce House
Visiting athletic teams and official university charters unload inside the restricted team zone along Knights Victory Way and Orion Boulevard with a campus escort. Private fan charter buses and alumni shuttles drop passengers off along Gemini Boulevard North near Addition Financial Arena or at the designated group drop-off curb near Research Pavilion on the south end of campus. Campus police prohibit stopping along Alafaya Trail, so always pull fully into the designated campus loops before opening the doors.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Acrisure Bounce House
UCF requires advance arrangements for oversized charter buses on football Saturdays. Private fan buses and non-permitted motorcoaches are typically directed to park and stage in the south campus lots near Research Pavilion (off Research Parkway and Technology Parkway) or in designated oversized spaces in the Gold Zone lots with a pre-purchased bus pass from UCF Athletics. Standard campus parking garages (Garages A through H) have strict vertical height clearances under 8’2” and cannot fit charter buses, party buses, or high-roof minibuses. Have your driver stay in contact by text so they can roll up to your pickup spot once the fourth quarter ends.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
On UCF home game days, Gemini Boulevard North and Orion Boulevard near the stadium convert to restricted access and one-way traffic flows four hours prior to kickoff, and post-game contraflow lanes push all exiting traffic outward toward Alafaya Trail and McCulloch Road. Expect heavy congestion along Alafaya Trail between Colonial Drive and University Boulevard starting three hours before game time.
Champion Stadium (Home of the Atlanta Braves)
Whatever your youth tournament schedule, spring training outing, or amateur championship looks like at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex and Champion Stadium, our network has your team covered! Compare minibuses, sprinter vans with a driver, and 56-passenger charter buses with undercarriage storage bays for bats, coolers, and cheer gear in one place.
Major Roadways to Champion Stadium
Located inside the Walt Disney World Resort corridor, Champion Stadium is accessed directly from I-4 (Exit 65 for Osceola Parkway West) or via the SR 429 (Western Beltway) and US-192 (Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway). From Osceola Parkway, charter buses turn south onto South Victory Way directly into the complex entrance. Teams flying in can book a direct Orlando airport charter bus transfer straight down SR 417 South from MCO in about 25 minutes.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Champion Stadium
ESPN Wide World of Sports features a dedicated Bus & Motorcoach Drop-Off Loop just off South Victory Way outside the main complex welcome plaza and box office. For post-game pickups, gather your roster at the main entrance globe monument before calling your driver up to the loop.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Champion Stadium
Unlike tight downtown venues, ESPN Wide World of Sports offers expansive, paved surface parking specifically designed for full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches and minibuses right off South Victory Way. Standard day parking at the complex is typically free for tournament buses, though special spring training games, runDisney race weekends, or marquee events may charge an oversized daily fee (similar to Disney theme park bus parking at $40 per day). Your bus can remain parked on-site in the bus lot for the duration of your tournament games, or head back to your team resort between morning and evening brackets.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
While South Victory Way rarely closes for standard baseball or soccer tournaments, runDisney marathon weekends causes widespread early-morning road closures across Osceola Parkway, World Drive, and Epcot Center Drive between 3:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. During peak youth cheer, dance, and soccer nationals, simultaneous bracket dismissals can back up the Victory Way exit onto Osceola Parkway and I-4 East. Pad your travel schedule by at least 45 minutes when your game time overlaps with Disney park opening or evening fireworks traffic on I-4. Our 24/7 dispatch and confirmation team helps you time your resort pickups so your players never miss warmups!
