Outside the conference

A popular tourist destination, Orlando is nicknamed “The City Beautiful” as well as “The Theme Park Capital of the World.” Major attractions include Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, City Walk, SeaWorld, Gatorland and Wet ‘n Wild Water Park.

 Not into theme parks? Other visitor destinations include La Nouba - Cirque du Soleil, Mama’s Comedy show and iFLY Orlando, which gives people the chance to experience indoor skydiving under true free-fall conditions — just like skydiving — without having to jump out of an airplane.
