#2 Orlando City Stadium (Orlando City SC)

Capacity – 25,500

Orlando City Stadium is by far my favorite MLS stadium that I have visited thus far. I attended the stadium’s opening match when my NYCFC visited the Lions, and the atmosphere around it was such a memorable experience. The brand new stadium is placed wonderfully in town, a walk away from several bars and restaurants, all OCSC themed on match day.

The stadium’s capacity is also something going in the Lion’s way. Its size seems perfect for the 2015 expansion side as they averaged an attendance of 25,028 in their debut season at Orlando City Stadium, which holds up to 25,500. The stadium also has the country’s first safe-standing section, something that brings a great atmosphere to each game.

Also, let’s not forget the 49 rainbow seats in the stadium dedicated to the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting in June of 2016, a truly class act by the club.
