Amway Center

Travel Post #17: Amway Center

“This is unlike anything Orlando has ever seen. It will be unlike any arena ever built."

The Amway Center opened its doors in the Fall of 2010. This arena truly is a work of art! It is an architectural dream composed of a modern mix of metal and glass. The building’s exterior features an ever-changing video screen that looks over the interstate. With a capacity of more than 20,000 seats the arena is equipped to host extraordinary events. Seats range from the good ole nose bleed section to founders and presidential suites, loge seating, court side and superstar seating to MVP tables and hospitality suites. You can find it nestled next to Church Street Station-a popular Orlando hot spot.

Who calls this arena home? The Amway Center is home to the Orlando Magic, the Orlando Predators and welcomes the elite concert series, ice shows, hockey championships, indoor soccer, Olympic ice and track trials, professional bull riding, and much more.

EverBank Field

Travel Post #3: EverBank Field

Not only does EverBank Field (former Alltel Stadium) house the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the Super Bowl XXXIX game was also played there on February 6, 2005. The game ended with the New England Patriots beating the Philadelphia Eagles 24-21. This city has battled heartache after heartache with each season having more blackout games than the previous, but this year the Jags have made a comeback. The Jacksonville Jaguars are ranked number two in their division. Teal and black cover the parking lots of tailgaters before kick-off. If you are lucky, Jaxon-de-Ville and the Roar Cheerleaders will make an appearance as well.
