Downtown Orlando's Exploria Stadium is No More! Home to Orlando City & Orlando Pride to be renamed

Only weeks after Orlando's Amway Center was renamed Kia Center, another major downtown Orlando venue is being renamed!


Home to Major League Soccer (MLS) team, Orlando City, and National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) team Orlando Pride, Exploria Stadium which opened in March 20217, was originally named Orlando City Stadium before signing a sponsorship deal with Exploria Resorts in Clermont in 2019, and now the stadium owners have revealed that a new naming rights partner has been found, meaning the stadium is to renamed yet again.


The 25,500 seat soccer-specific stadium is located in the heart of Downtown Orlando and was the first MLS stadium to open with five consecutive victories.


Exploria Stadium which was 100 percent privately funded at a cost of $155 million, features a 360-degree lower bowl, North America’s first safe-standing supporters’ section – dubbed “The Wall” – and a four-sided canopy roof to keep the noise in and weather out.


The new name of the stadium is unknown at this time, but we do not have long to wait until we find out, as a press conference is set for Thursday, January 18, when the new naming rights partner, and the new stadium name will be revealed.
