Orlando City announce multi-year television broadcast partnership with local station FOX 35

Orlando City fans

On Wednesday, Orlando City announced a multi-year broadcasting partnership with local TV station FOX 35, whose family of networks will serve as the exclusive English-language local broadcast home for the Lions.


The agreement provides FOX 35 and WRBW MY65 with telecast rights to all Orlando City regular-season and playoff matches not aired by MLS's national television partners.



"This is a landmark day for Orlando City fans," Orlando president Phil Rawlins in a club statement. "We look forward to working closely with our partners at FOX 35 to create not only a first-class broadcast for our fans, but additional in-market promotions and opportunities to bring them closer to their club and the players on the field."


Orlando City are one of two expansion sides, along with New York City FC, set to make their MLS debuts when the 2015 season opens in March. Orlando expect to announce local radio and Spanish-language television partners in the near future.
