smiler Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hi . I will be going to the Orlando show in July as I am in Florida at the time on holiday from England. I will be taking the wife as well and she has been reading on line how bad the parking is at the Stadium and how the area is a bit dangerous. It wont put me off going but will DCI be providing parking of does anyone know the best place to park.. Thanks Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiler Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 Ok . I guess nobody has been to this Stadium for a while with the DCI not being here for a few years. Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crownisking Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I've been to Camping World Stadium a few times for sporting events, but never for a DCI event. I've always taken a cab or an Uber from a friends house to the stadium because the parking situation is pretty bad. Not sure if that would help you though since you said you'll be here on holiday. I can also confirm that the stadium isn't in the best neighborhood but as long as you don't wander off too far from the stadium by yourself you'll be fine. Orlando is known for its evening storms during the summer months, so be prepared for a rain delay. Storms usually only last about an hour though so they should be able to get the show in eventually.

smiler Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 Do you think there will be Taxis around the Stadium at the show ? .If there is I could leave my hire car outside a restaurant and get a Taxi from International Drive beforehand then one back from the Stadium after the last Corps.

You'll most likely need to call for a taxi, or use Uber. I personally wouldn't expect taxis to be waiting around the stadium. Parking around International Drive is normally very busy, and thus a mess to navigate. It might be easier to park downtown Orlando in a parking garage, and then take a taxi/Uber to and from the garage to the stadium. About a 30minute drive to International Drive from the stadium.

smiler Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 Thanks for that Sub. I know International Drive well as I have visited it in a car for years so I can drive and park there with no problem . What I cant figure out is how DCI have got a show with no parking for guests ?, I don't know how may will attend lets say 3,000 people , so where is DCI advising they all leave their motors or how do they get to and from the Stadium ?.

smiler Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 Thanks for that Sub. Looks quite a bit of parking on the map. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NakedEye Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 For soccer games and such, they have extended the free Lynx Lymmo bus service (grapefruit line) a bit further west to the stadium. This gives the option of parking/dining downtown and taking the bus to the event. Check as it gets closer to see if they will be doing that. For those who have not been to the stadium since it was the Citrus Bowl, it is virtually a brand-new structure (with turf - no more dead grass/mud). The only part remaining of the old stadium is the upper deck (not used for the show). The old lower bowl was demolished and the new is much more spacious, with mostly seatback-chair seating, bigger/improved bathrooms and concessions. I call it CAMPFIRE GIRLS stadium, because, why not? It is not a stupider name than Camping World! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
