Playing off the recently opened Great Florida Road Trip game on The Wheel, ICON Park is hosting Destination Days during the month of August offering deals for Florida residents.

Each weekend will focus on a specific destination that is visually represented in the game, celebrating its unique attractions, offering deals for its residents, and sharing why these destinations are an important part of a Florida vacation with Orlando residents and tourists.

Each weekend in August is dedicated to a specific destination, with:

  • $10 tickets to The Wheel for guests from any zip code within that destination (regular price is $34.99);
  • An education booth and videos in ICON Park from the destination CVBs, so guests can learn more about its unique attractions;
  • Raffle to win a gift basket of prizes from the region such as a hotel stay, attraction tickets and more (no purchase required).
