College football's New Year's classic - the 81st Citrus Bowl lands in Orlando January 2, 2027
About 2027 Citrus Bowl (81st edition, college football)
One of the oldest bowls in college football plays its 81st edition on Saturday January 2, 2027: the Citrus Bowl kicks off at noon ET at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, broadcast live on ABC, with Fan Fest and a hospitality pavilion at Tinker Field next door on game day. It is traditionally a Big Ten versus SEC matchup that pulls a capacity, travel-happy crowd into the city for the long New Year's weekend.
Bowl week means several days of fan events, tailgates and Orlando nightlife around one game. A private villa turns the trip into a proper group takeover - pool, chef and space for the whole crew, minutes from the stadium, instead of split hotel rooms.

How we screen every stay
Every home we represent is someone's personal residence, in a real neighborhood, and we've committed to the owner and their neighbors that we'll place it only with guests whose plans fit the home. So, like most professionally managed homes, we confirm a few details with every guest before a reservation is finalized — who is staying, the purpose of the trip, and agreement to the house rules and rental agreement. This is the same for everyone who books with us, and it's meant to protect you too: it keeps the neighborhood quiet and welcoming, keeps the home in the condition you expect, and ensures the property truly matches what you need. Once confirmed with the homeowner, we'll send the final quote for signature within one business day.
