Orlando is one of the fastest-growing cities in the US — and its sports scene is growing with it. The Magic are building something special, Orlando City SC has a passionate supporter base, and the whole of Central Florida has access to Tampa Bay and Jacksonville games too. IPTV puts every game at $20/month.
Central Florida is dominated by Spectrum (Charter Communications) as the primary cable provider. A Spectrum sports-tier package in Orlando runs $90–$130/month before taxes, equipment rental, and the inevitable rate increases that follow the first-year promotional pricing. Orlando also sits in a unique market — it's close enough to Tampa and Jacksonville that many residents follow multiple teams across multiple markets.
The collapse of Bally Sports Sun — which previously broadcast Florida sports including the Magic — has made cable subscriptions even less valuable for Orlando sports fans. Local Magic broadcasts that were previously on RSN are increasingly moving to national platforms, making cord-cutting cleaner than ever for Orlando residents.
The Magic are in an exciting rebuild phase with young talent drawing national broadcast attention. Nationally televised games appear on ESPN, TNT, and NBA TV — all included in PlayMaxTV. As the roster continues to develop, expect more prime-time appearances on national platforms. See our complete NBA without cable guide for playoff coverage details.
Orlando City's purple and gold have become a real MLS force — backed by one of the league's loudest stadium atmospheres at Inter&Co Stadium. MLS games air on Apple TV+ (MLS Season Pass) for all matches, with open-window games on FS1 and Fox. PlayMaxTV covers both FS1 and Fox. Full MLS Season Pass access requires an Apple TV+ subscription as well.
The Pride are one of the NWSL's marquee clubs with a dedicated local following. NWSL matches air on CBS Sports Network and Paramount+, with select games on CBS main channel — all accessible through PlayMaxTV.
While the Buccaneers are Tampa's team, Orlando's Central Florida location means a massive Bucs fanbase lives in the metro area. PlayMaxTV covers all four NFL broadcasters — Fox, CBS, NBC, ESPN — plus NFL Network and RedZone, so every Bucs game is covered regardless of network.
The Rays have a significant following throughout Central Florida. MLB nationally televised games on ESPN, Fox, and TBS are all included. For the complete MLB without cable guide, see our dedicated breakdown.
