Hi Linda, and welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
I love hearing that you’re planning to chEAR on a favorite sports team at the
ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. Whether you’re a spectator or an athlete, I think it’s super cool that, right in the middle of
Walt Disney World Resort, there’s a place for pixie-dusted athletes and sports fans to get their game on.
Your friends here on the Disney Parks Moms Panel love planning in advance, so I also love that you’re thinking about taking care of
parking in advance. I checked in with a Cast Member, who shared that, while premium parking is available for pre-purchase for select events, specific spots are not guaranteed, so you will want to plan to arrive early to get a closer-in spot, as parking spaces are first come, first served. If you arrive and find that the premium lot is full, a Cast Member should be able to assist you in finding a space in general or overflow parking.
Details can vary when it comes to different events, so I recommend contacting the event organizers or clicking on the “more info” link beside an event listed on the
ESPN Wide World of Sports events page for further details about your specific event. I also recommend keeping an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog, as they often cover upcoming sporting events, and provide great tips so you can have a
sports-tacular experience.
Wishing you great weather and a great game, Linda!
Have a zip-a-dee-doo-dah day,
Robyn
