There are two hotel package options available. Please read all information carefully about what is offered in each package before you make your selection. You will need to indicate on your registration form which hotel you are requesting to stay in.
Pricing for spectators and participants is calculated based on the total number of people in the room. For example, if there are three total people in the room, it is a triple, two people is a double, etc. Once you have the total number of people who will be in each room, each person will pay that price based on if they are a spectator or participant. For example, if there is one participant going with two family members, they will be in a triple room. The participant will pay the triple participant price and each of the two spectators will pay the spectator price.

Royal Pacific Spectator Package SOLD OUT
How much spending money should I bring with me? That’s up to you. You will only need money for meals not included in the package and miscellaneous items such as snacks and souvenirs.
How often will I receive updates? We try to communicate regularly with all attendees. Most of the communication will come through email or our Facebook page. If you’re not receiving emails or have additional email addresses you’d like added to our distribution list then email John Calitri at jcalitri@varsity.com.
My coach is coming to Florida as a spectator. Can he/she attend practice? Can my parents? In order to eliminate all distractions and comply with social distancing, our rehearsals are closed to all spectators. This will hopefully allow us to streamline the practices which in turn should allow for more time in the parks!
What happens if I get injured or become ill during the event? We will have first aid staff on duty throughout the event. Additional medical treatment is at the expense of the participant.
When do we need to arrive to Orlando? Normal arrival day is Sunday, Nov. 22. We do offer a limited number of extra nights on Saturday, Nov. 21 for those requesting an early arrival. We suggest arriving at the resort no later than 3:30 PM on Sunday (2:00 PM arrival to the Orlando International Airport MCO). This will allow plenty of time for you to get to the hotel, register and be ready for rehearsal that evening. It will also allow for any potential flight delays due to weather.
Do we have to follow the group itinerary when it comes to visiting the theme parks each day? No, unless it is your performance day. You must follow the group itinerary for your group performance times. Other days you do not have to follow the group itinerary.
We missed our deadline for registration and deposit…Are we too late? Please call our Customer Service at 844-399-0644 for availability.
How do we know what size uniform to order? Watch this short video with instructions on how to properly measure for your uniform. Please note: Your current Varsity uniform will more than likely be a different fit than the uniform we use for Special Events.
My performer already has a uniform from a 2019 Varsity Spirit Spectacular. Is the uniform the same and do we get a discount? The uniform for the 2020 Varsity Spirit Spectacular will not be the same as the 2019 event. If your performer already has the uniform from the 2019 Orlando Thanksgiving Tour, or the Citrus Bowl Pre-Game Performance, please indicate this on your uniform sheet and you may deduct $40 from your cost.
What is the difference between the Participant and Spectator pricing? The uniform and parade opportunity is the only difference. Everything that is listed as INCLUDED in the tour package is available to everyone.
Are there advantages to staying at the Royal Pacific Resort™? Yes, in addition to the convenience of the Varsity check in, orientation and rehearsal being at the Royal Pacific Resort™ the resort is just a short walk from Universal CityWalk, Universal Studios and Universal’s Islands of Adventure. Guest at the Royal Pacific Resort™ also receive early park entry and a Universal Express Unlimited pass to skip the regular lines at the parks.
