Get your Mickey ears ready, because you're visiting the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando!

The 2018 UCA & UDA College Cheerleading and Dance Team National Championship will be held at the HP Field House, The Arena, Arena North and Arena South.

The Arena is the brand-new 286,000 square-foot complex at the ESPN Wide World of Sports. The Arena is making history as the first sports venue of its size designed with cheerleaders and dancers in mind.  

If you need to take a break from the competition, you can stop by the ESPN Clubhouse Shop or grab some lunch at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Grill connected to the Visa Athletic Center, formerly known as the J Center. There are even food trucks located behind the HP Field House for quick meals before you have to head back for awards. Take a virtual tour of the facility before you arrive to navigate the space like a pro.
