TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Tickets are now on sale for the inaugural 2027 Orlando Baseball Classic held over February 26-28 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports at Walt Disney World Result.
 
General admission, all-day tickets are on sale for all three days at the link.
 
Three teams that advanced to an NCAA baseball regional last season, including College World Series' participant West Virginia, highlight the six-team field. Along with West Virginia, the new event will feature 2026 NCAA super regional participant St. John's and NCAA regional selection UCF, along with Pitt, Michigan and Indiana State.
 
The Stadium at ESPN Wide World of Sports will play host to the round-robin event, which will be played in Week 2 of the new season. The Stadium, with a capacity of 9,500 seats and another 2,000 on grass, opened in 1997 and was designed with Major League Baseball dimensions. For two decades, the immaculate ballpark served as the home to spring training for the Atlanta Braves, and has played host to minor league teams, MLB regular-season games for the Tampa Bay Rays, the 2006 World Baseball Classic and the 2001 Atlantic 10 Conference baseball tournament.
 
The Orlando Baseball Classic will check two boxes for NCAA teams: it creates a much-needed national event to start the season, an opportunity to showcase great competition as the new baseball season gets underway; and, it provides a warm-weather destination for a number of teams that typically have to begin the first three weeks of the season away from home while winter hangs on across the northern half of the country.
