ORLANDO, Fla. (Feb. 20, 2026) — Orlando City SC and Orlando Pride today announced a new, year‑long partnership with WKMG News 6, Orlando’s CBS affiliate with Graham Media Group, making News 6 the official local news partner for the 2026 season. The collaboration significantly expands coverage of the two teams, offering fans more ways than ever to stay connected“We’re thrilled to expand our relationship with News 6 and bring even more access, storytelling and coverage to our supporters across Central Florida,” said Pedro Araujo, Orlando City SC and Orlando Pride Chief Marketing Officer. “This partnership strengthens our connection with the community and elevates the visibility of our teams during what promises to be an exciting 2026 season.”
“This partnership makes so much sense for the Orlando City SC, Orlando Pride and News 6 teams,” said News 6 Vice President and General Manager Autumn Jones. “We’re the only local news team with professionally trained Community Correspondents who provide better reporting to our viewers because they live in the same places they cover. So it follows that we would also want to be closely embedded with the hometown sports franchise that can claim one of the most passionate local fan bases nationwide in MLS — and a recent NWSL Championship."
