Discover Orlando – theme parks and so much more

A city built on natural beauty and imagination.

Orlando, Florida

Orlando is, of course, home to some of the nation's greatest theme parks – Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando and Sea World – but there's a lot more that the City has to offer visitors. Live music, theater, dance, galleries, museums and festivals are just a taste of Orlando's arts and culture scene. Numerous visual and performing arts centers can be found throughout the downtown core, along with a wealth of dining, shopping and entertainment centers.

Or tee off in one of the world's largest golf destinations. Orlando's famously beautiful golf courses, top-ranked instructors and luxurious resorts cater to the most discerning golf enthusiasts. And while you're there, remember it's just a short drive to famed Florida beaches, NASA Kennedy Space Center and Tampa.

What to expect when you come to Orlando.

One of Orlando's biggest draws is the year-round sunny, mild weather. In keeping with the "Sunshine State", Central Florida maintains a comfortable average annual temperature of 72 degrees and a mostly Orlando, Floridadry climate from October to May. In October, Orlando averages a low of 66 and a high of 85 – perfect for all types of fun.
