2025 ACA Winter Conference Orlando_Planning Guide

Transportation

Rideshare The Center has integrated the unique demands of rideshare services, such as Lyft and Uber, into the transportation planning needs of events. As such, the OCCC has coordinated with service providers to establish drop-off and pick-up points for rideshare services and set geofences around the Convention Center campus for attendees. Upon requesting a ride through Lyft or Uber, attendees will be directed to meet their driver at one of the three pick-up points based on where they are located on the campus, and in accordance with the map below. Each location is highly visible and indicated with banners and signage. Car Numerous roads, including State Road 528 (Beachline) and Interstate 4 (I-4), surround the OCCC, providing guests convenient and direct routes to the Center. The OCCC operates a number of LED message signs along International Drive, State Road 528, Universal and Westwood Boulevards and Convention Way. Programmed daily, the signs direct attendees to the closest available event parking. The Center operates three parking lots. Parking rates vary upon vehicle size, entry time and event. Parking spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. The Center is now cashless and accepts Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover, Apple Pay and Google Pay. At the discretion of show management, valet parking may also be available for your event.

Taxi The location of taxi service varies by show. Typically, a taxi stand will be set up in the front of the building. Hours of operation will be posted by the show management.

While guests are free to choose any transportation company they wish, we discourage the use of unapproved taxis as we have no way of verifying that those vehicles and/or drivers meet our strict requirements.

Public Transportation I-RIDE Trolleys

Taking an I-RIDE Trolley is one of the most convenient and least expensive ways to explore the International Drive resort area. Trolley stops are conveniently located in front of the West and North/South buildings on International Drive. Trolley passes are available for purchase at the OCCC Guest Services desk. For maps and fare information, visit the I-RIDE Trolley website.

Safety tip: Do not leave valuables in your car.
