Inter&Co Stadium (Home of Orlando City SC and the Orlando Pride)
Winterparkcharterbuscompany.com is ready to connect your soccer fans or visiting athletic club with reliable group rides to Inter&Co Stadium at 655 W. Church St, Orlando, FL 32805. You can compare party buses, minibuses, and motorcoaches in one place so your whole group arrives in the Parramore district together!
Major Roadways to Inter&Co Stadium
Groups traveling south from Winter Park typically take I-4 West into Downtown Orlando and exit at Anderson Street or South Street. From there, local connectors like Orange Blossom Trail (US-441), Hughey Avenue, and West Central Boulevard feed directly toward the stadium corridor. If I-4 is backed up, US-17/92 (Mills Avenue to Colonial Drive) offers a reliable surface-street alternative.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Inter&Co Stadium
Charter buses can drop off and pick up passengers along West Central Boulevard just north of the stadium or near the designated group loading zones at Church Street and Terry Avenue. Curbs around the gates are strictly for active loading and unloading with a five-minute idling limit. Make sure your entire fan group is gathered outside the gates before calling your driver back for post-match pickup.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Inter&Co Stadium
Because on-site surface lots immediately bordering the pitch are small and reserved for season pass holders, oversized vehicles usually park in designated downtown surface lots near the Kia Center or along Garland Avenue and Hughey Avenue under the I-4 overpass. You can also pre-purchase oversized spaces in Lot 10 or nearby city-operated surface lots a few blocks east. Drivers cannot stage curbside on Church Street during the match. If you book a hotel shuttle package, your driver can also return to your hotel lot and come back before the final whistle.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Expect West Church Street between Terry Avenue and Rio Grande Avenue to close to vehicular traffic roughly three hours before kickoff for the Fan Zone plaza. Plan to depart Winter Park at least 90 minutes early to beat downtown I-4 rush hour and match-day bottlenecks.
Kia Center (Home of the Orlando Magic)
Winterparkcharterbuscompany.com can help you lock in a private party bus rental or charter bus to cheer on the Orlando Magic or catch a major arena tour at the Kia Center, located at 400 W. Church St, Orlando, FL 32801. Instead of splitting your group into surge-priced rideshares after the final buzzer, you can compare vehicles from multiple local bus companies competing for your business! Whether you need a 20-passenger minibus or a 56-passenger motorcoach, your group gets dropped off right near the action. Plus, our confirmation department calls you after you book to verify every stop on your itinerary!
Major Roadways to Kia Center
The fastest route from Winter Park is I-4 West to the South Street, Anderson Street, or Amelia Street exits in Downtown Orlando. Local access roads including Hughey Avenue, Division Avenue, and Garland Avenue lead directly to the arena perimeter.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Kia Center
Your charter bus driver can unload and reload passengers at the designated motorcoach curb along Hughey Avenue on the east side of the building or along South Street near the Disney Atrium entrance. Because the attached GEICO Garage has a strict 7-foot height clearance, buses must stay on surface streets for all drop-offs.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Kia Center
Oversized charter bus and RV parking is located right across from the arena in the surface lot at Hughey Avenue and Central Boulevard (Lot 2 / Bus & RV Lot). Spaces here are limited, so we highly recommend reserving your bus pass in advance through the arena box office or Kia Center parking portal. If that lot fills up, drivers can stage at approved downtown commercial surface lots east of I-4.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Church Street between Hughey Avenue and Division Avenue closes to regular traffic before Tip-Off and major concerts, turning into a pedestrian-only zone. Traffic on the I-4 westbound exits for South Street and Anderson Street frequently backs up onto the highway starting 90 minutes before tip-off. If there is a simultaneous match at nearby Inter&Co Stadium, downtown congestion doubles along Central Boulevard and Orange Avenue. Pad your schedule with an extra 45 minutes so everyone makes it through security before the opening tip!

Major Roadways to Camping World Stadium
Groups heading down from Winter Park can take I-4 West to the SR-408 West (East-West Expressway) interchange and exit at Orange Blossom Trail (US-441) or Tampa Avenue. West Colonial Drive (SR-50) also runs east-west just north of the stadium complex, offering direct turns onto Rio Grande Avenue or Tampa Avenue. Approaching from SR-408 or SR-50 helps your driver avoid the tightest pedestrian closures closer to Downtown. Your driver will map out the cleanest approach based on your assigned parking lot.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Camping World Stadium
Charter buses that are only dropping off and picking up can use the designated group unloading zones along Rio Grande Avenue on the west side of the stadium or near Church Street and Tampa Avenue.

Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Camping World Stadium
Dedicated charter bus and RV parking is available in Lot E and Lot 7 (typically accessed via Tampa Avenue or Rio Grande Avenue), where tailgating is permitted right beside your vehicle! Oversized parking passes must be purchased ahead of time through the Camping World Stadium parking page, as game-day drive-up bus spaces almost always sell out.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
On major bowl game and concert days, the City of Orlando closes Church Street, South Street, and portions of Tampa Avenue and Nashville Avenue immediately surrounding the stadium perimeter up to four hours before kickoff.Orlando Police Department officers actively direct buses along Orange Blossom Trail and West Colonial Drive into their pre-assigned gates. Plan to arrive at least two to three hours early if your group wants to tailgate and beat the SR-408 exit backups.

From Winter Park, your driver can head straight east on Aloma Avenue (SR-426) into Oviedo and connect to Alafaya Trail (SR-434 South), or take University Boulevard straight to the main UCF campus entrance. Groups traveling from farther out can use the SR-417 (Central Florida GreeneWay) toll road and exit at University Boulevard or East Colonial Drive (SR-50). Both Alafaya Trail and McCulloch Road border the campus and lead directly to the north athletic complex. Using SR-426 or SR-417 lets your group skip the heaviest commercial traffic along SR-50.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Acrisure Bounce House
Visiting team buses and private fan charters can unload passengers along Gemini Boulevard North near the Addition Financial Arena and IOA Plaza, or at the designated group drop-off curb off Orion Boulevard on the east side of the campus. Campus garages (Garages C, D, F, and H) have low vertical clearances and cannot fit motorcoaches or high-roof minibuses. Have your alumni or student group meet at a clear landmark outside Gate 14 or near the Memory Mall flagpole before calling your driver to pull up after the game.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Acrisure Bounce House
Oversized charter bus and RV parking on the UCF campus is designated in the E5 / SoftBall Complex surface lots off Orion Boulevard and in designated Gold Zone oversized lots with an advance permit. Be sure to coordinate your bus permit with the UCF Athletics Ticket Office at (407) 823-1000 prior to game week.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
On UCF football Saturdays, Gemini Boulevard North and Knights Victory Way close to general through-traffic several hours before kickoff to accommodate tailgating at Memory Mall and the Knight Walk.

Located about two hours north at 1 EverBank Stadium Dr, Jacksonville, FL 32202, this riverfront venue is an awesome road trip when you have onboard WiFi, TVs, and an onboard restroom.

Major Roadways to EverBank Stadium
Your bus will travel north from Winter Park via I-4 East to I-95 North straight into Downtown Jacksonville. Once across the St. Johns River, drivers use the Mathews Bridge (SR-115), Hart Bridge (US-1 Alt), or Main Street Bridge to connect onto Bay Street and Gator Bowl Boulevard.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at EverBank Stadium
For groups that are only being dropped off and picked up, charter buses use the designated commercial loading zone along East Bay Street or A. Philip Randolph Boulevard just north of the stadium gates. Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (JSO) officers strictly prohibit buses from stopping or idling directly on Gator Bowl Boulevard or the Hart Bridge ramps. After the fourth quarter, gather your entire group at the North End Zone plaza before texting your driver to enter the pickup lane. This keeps boarding quick and avoids any city idling fines.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at EverBank Stadium
Pre-paid charter bus and RV parking is located in Tailgaters Parking at 825 E. Adams St or in official stadium oversized spaces in Lot P and Lot X. Always reserve your oversized spot in advance, as game-day bus lots sell out weeks ahead of rivalry matchups and NFL Sundays.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Gator Bowl Boulevard and East Bay Street experience lane reversals and pedestrian-only closures starting three hours before kickoff and for 90 minutes after the game ends. Plan to leave Winter Park at least four hours before kickoff to account for the 140-mile drive up I-4 and I-95 plus bridge traffic into the Sports Complex.
Quick Tips for Winter Park Game-Day Charter Bus Groups
Wherever your schedule takes you, a little preparation makes stadium travel effortless! Always gather your entire group at a pre-set landmark outside the gates before calling your driver to the pickup curb, since Florida stadiums enforce strict 5- to 10-minute loading limits. Remember to pre-purchase oversized bus parking passes through the venue box office as soon as you lock in your tickets, as parking fees are separate from your bus quote. Finally, pad your departure time by 45 to 60 minutes to breeze past I-4 and SR-408 game-day bottlenecks!
