Spring is here and Orlando is in full bloom with sunshine, new adventures, and reasons to get away. As you plan spring breaks, long weekends, and those first seasonal escapes, you’ll find more to explore than ever— especially with Universal’s Epic Universe now open, redefining the theme park experience with immersive lands and next-level attractions. Nearby favorites at LEGOLAND® Florida Resort, United Parks & Resorts, and Walt Disney World® Resort are rolling out fresh seasonal fun, too, making Central Florida the perfect place to welcome warmer days.

At Westgate Resorts, we’re turning up the fun across the region. Out at our authentic Florida dude ranch, River Country Water Park at Westgate River Ranch pairs sunny skies with splashy slides, a lagoon-style pool, private cabanas, and kid-friendly play zones—an easy add-on to horseback rides, airboat tours, and Saturday night rodeos. In Kissimmee, the Mystery Fun House Arcade Experience at Westgate Vacation Villas & Town Center Resort brings a beloved Orlando icon to life with modern arcade tech, neon bowling, a mirror maze, and surprises around every corner. If your plans include a beach day, head to the Westgate Cocoa Beach Pier, where Chuck's Arcade, powered by Chuck E. Cheese, adds oceanview gaming to one of Florida's most iconic boardwalks.

As you map out the season, let I Love Orlando be your guide to the newest thrills, hidden gems, and the kind of memory-making moments that define springs in Central Florida. Thank you for choosing Westgate as your home base; we can’t wait to welcome you.

DISCOVER SOMETHING REAL

There is nothing quite like it on Earth. Watching a rocket launch from behind NASA’s gates from just a few miles away is an unforgettable experience. The countdown to liftoff begins with a flash of fire as the rocket engines ignite. Seconds later, the rocket soars overhead and the rumble of the engines becomes a roar that vibrates through the landscape.

At Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex , viewing locations are only a few miles from the launch pads, so you can see and feel the liftoff of spacecraft leaving Earth. It’s an experience you

won’t soon forget. And with the frequency of launches occurring off the Space Coast of Florida, if you are in the area for more than a few days, chances are you can catch a launch during your vacation.

More than a working launch facility, Kennedy Space Center symbolizes American ingenuity and human curiosity. Here, get up close to space exploration's past, present, and future. The Visitor Complex is the only place on Earth where you can stand nose-to-nose with the actual space shuttle Atlantis, walk underneath a mighty Saturn V Moon rocket, meet a real veteran NASA

astronaut, touch a Moon rock, and take a bus tour to catch a glimpse of operational launch facilities behind NASA’s gates, such as the massive Vehicle Assembly Building. The newest addition to the bus tour is The Gantry at LC-3. There, get panoramic views of the launch pads at Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, and learn about the relationship between rocket science and the wildlife refuge.

Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is just one small step from Orlando. Visit KennedySpaceCenter.com to plan your visit, purchase tickets or to check the events calendar to see when the next launch is scheduled. Watching the rocket leave the launch pad may only be a quick drive away!

THAT'S AMORE

Founded in 1974, Giordano’s worldfamous Stuffed Deep Dish Pizza was created from a simple idea: food made with love brings people together.

The story begins in the northern village of Torino, Italy, where Mama Giordano was known for her exquisite cooking of large, rustic dishes — including her beloved “twocrusted stuffed pie.”

Years later, her grandsons, Efren and Joseph Giordano, brought those cherished family

recipes to Chicago, introducing guests to a new style of pizza that would soon become legendary.

What sets Giordano’s apart is its unwavering commitment to quality. Every dish is prepared with carefully sourced ingredients and made fresh daily. Giordano’s signature mozzarella cheese is crafted exclusively by skilled Wisconsin cheesemakers using only the highestquality milk and a completely natural process. The cheese is aged to perfection and shredded in-house, creating the rich, creamy melt Giordano’s is known for.

The sauce tells its own story. Handpicked Italian varietal tomatoes grown in Mendocino County, California — a region renowned for producing some of the world’s finest tomatoes — are harvested at peak ripeness for natural sweetness and low acidity. These tomatoes form the foundation of Giordano’s pizza sauce, marinara, and bolognese, all made without chemicals or preservatives.

While Giordano’s is famous for Mama Giordano’s Stuffed Deep Dish Pizza, the menu also features hand-stretched and extra-thin crust pizzas, a variety of appetizers, pasta dishes, ciabatta sandwiches, and fresh salads with housemade dressings — all prepared with the same dedication to quality and tradition.

For nearly three decades, locals and visitors alike have enjoyed authentic Giordano’s cuisine in Central Florida. Giordano’s offers dine-in, carry-out, and delivery daily from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. at three convenient locations.

WESTGATE MILITARY WEEKEND

CELEBRATING HEROISM AND GRATITUDE

The 2025 Westgate Military Weekend was truly a one-of-a-kind experience. One thousand active, veteran, and Gold Star military families gathered at Westgate Vacation Villas & Town Center Resort to enjoy a wide range of experiences — from the family-favorite silent disco and annual 5K to a powerful presentation, Hope of a Nation, by Gale Sussman, a secondgeneration Holocaust survivor. For many families, the three-day weekend provided a much-needed vacation, while also serving as a meaningful time to honor and celebrate those who serve and those who support them.

Hosted by Westgate Resorts and Westgate Foundation , this highly anticipated event was proudly presented by BrightView, Interval International, and SeaWorld ® Orlando. The holiday spirit was alive throughout the resort as military families checked in, greeted by none other than Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus, set against the backdrop of festive carolers.

More than 25 incredible partners attended this year’s legendary Military Resource Fair, providing valuable information about services and programs available to the military community. That evening, guests enjoyed a variety of experiences — from dancing the night away at the silent disco and taste-testing Caribbean Moonshine during Military Weekend’s first Mixology 101 class, presented by Caribbean Moonshine, to signature resort games and activities that were favorites throughout the weekend.

This year’s activities ramped up on Saturday starting with a recordbreaking group of runners kicking off the day with the Red, White, and Blue 5K. Families marveled at the gravitydefying acrobatic show by Santa’s Little Flippers Acrobatic Variety Show and were left in awe by Las Vegas Headlining Magician Jen Kramer during family field day.

The I Love Orlando Magazine partners were kept busy throughout the afternoon as families stopped to interact, play games, and chat with them.

The historic tank display and demonstration proved why it remains a crowd favorite year after year, giving families an up-close experience of the sights and sounds of the machinery many of their loved ones once operated. Guests also had the opportunity to hear Gale Sussman’s powerful personal testimony, Hope of a Nation, adding a meaningful moment of reflection to the weekend.

Saturday evening, Westgate Foundation proudly awarded $50,000 in grants to five military nonprofits, including 22Zero, American Gold Star Mothers, Camaraderie Foundation, Operation Homefront, and the University of Central Florida. Families danced in the rain — or from their balconies — as the Paradigm Party Band delivered a dynamic performance, before the skies cleared just in time to close out the night with a fitting fireworks finale.

More than a weekend of events, Westgate Military Weekend created lasting memories and meaningful moments for the families who have given so much in service to our country.
