Florida Citrus Bowl Stadium
The Florida Citrus Bowl Stadium was originally constructed in 1936, with seating for 8,900 people. The first annual bowl game was held in 1947, for the benefit of the Elks and was called the Tangerine Bowl Game.
In 1967, the Stadium was expanded to 18,000 seats and in 1974, additional seating was added to bring the capacity to 48,000 seats. In January 1989, the transformation of the Florida Citrus Bowl Stadium into a facility of the 90's began at the cost of $38 million. Several improvements were made including an additional disabled elevator; additional disabled seating, electrical and phone upgrades and a state-of-the-art playing field. Most recently, new escalator systems were installed for easy accessibility to seating.
The Florida Citrus Bowl Stadium is the home of the annual Captial One Bowl, Tangerine Bowl, Walt Disney World Florida Classic and University of Central Florida football. It was also the site of five 1994 World Cup Soccer games and 1996 Olympic Soccer - first/second rounds. The Stadium has been host to "Rock Superbowls" featuring such performers as The Rolling Stones, The Who, Genesis, Pink Floyd, George Michael, Paul McCartney, Guns'n Roses, Billy Joel/Elton John and the Eagles.
The Florida Citrus Bowl Stadium is owned and operated by the City of Orlando and is part of the Orlando Centroplex, which includes the T.D. Waterhouse Centre, Bob Carr Performing Arts Center and the Expo Center. The stadium turf is 419 Bermuda Grass.
