Orlando Pride Kicks Off Month-Long “Summer Break” with Fun-Filled Fan Events
ORLANDO, FL — The summer spirit is alive and thriving in Central Florida as Orlando Pride launches its first-ever “Summer Break” fan event series, bringing together soccer fans, families, and the broader community with a variety of fun and inclusive activities running through the end of July.
Designed to keep energy high during the NWSL’s midseason pause, the month-long lineup includes youth soccer clinics, water park takeovers, cleanup efforts, and exclusive events for season ticket holders — all leading up to a highly anticipated match night in early August.
A Celebration of Community and Soccer
“Our goal is to give fans meaningful ways to stay engaged with the club,” said Pedro Araujo, Chief Marketing Officer for Orlando Pride. “Whether it’s a soccer clinic or a summer splash day, we’ve got something for everyone.”
The event series sets the stage for Orlando Pride’s return to league action on Sunday, August 3, when the team hosts Utah Royals FC at Inter&Co Stadium during Florida Night, presented by Heineken — a celebration that also honors Orlando’s 150th anniversary.
