Hi Ashley,
I have been to Disney World for several events at
ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. During events like the
runDisney races, there is access to transportation that will take you directly to the event center from your Disney resort hotel. However, I find it easiest to utilize my favorite rideshare service when traveling from anywhere on Disney World property to ESPN Wide World of Sports. Rideshare services like Lyft and Uber are readily available at Disney World and are a convenient option when you want to get somewhere quickly!
If you are looking for a rideshare option that is driven by an official Disney cast member and looks like your favorite character Minnie Mouse, then you are in luck. While staying at Disney World, you can utilize the
Minnie Van Service through the Lyft app. These are fabulous if you are traveling with kids because it includes a car seat and the drivers are a knowledgeable resource about all things Disney World.
Before you head over to ESPN Wide World of Sports, be sure to check out the
event calendar for up-to-date information on what events are happening during your visit. This will help you to catch or avoid an event depending on the goals for your visit!
If you are looking for other ways to make your Disney World vacation a little bit sportier, check out some of the
recreation options available. My personal favorites are the spectacular golf courses and all of the activities at the
Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort. They have everything from archery to horse back riding!
Happy Planning,
Jenna
