The Magic said as part of the multi-year agreement, fans will continue to see Disney’s presence throughout the Amway Center, including the Disney Atrium and a special seating and hospitality area during select Orlando Magic home games.
“The Orlando Magic are thrilled to announce an extended agreement with our longtime friends, Walt Disney World Resort,” Magic CEO Alex Martins said. “The extension represents a continued shared commitment to both the local community and creating magic for fans and guests alike. As pillars in the Orlando community, we are proud to represent the City of Orlando and all those who call ‘The City Beautiful’ home.”
Disney became a Champion of the Community sponsor with the Magic in 2010 and the official Magic jersey sponsor in 2017. Since the beginning, both organizations have worked together on a number of initiatives including the Orlando Magic Recreation Centers and sponsorship of the OMYF Open golf tournament.
“The Orlando Magic and Disney have much in common, and it’s reflected in our hometown team’s name,” said Jeff Vahle, president of Walt Disney World. “We are excited to extend this relationship and wish them a great season.”
For Magic and Disney fans, jerseys with the Disney logo will be available for purchase at the Amway Center.
