Orlando Magic fans can skip the drive and ride SunRail for free to eligible weeknight home games during the 2026-27 NBA season. The Train-To-The-Game program returns Tuesday, Oct. 13, allowing ticket holders to use the commuter rail to travel to games at the Kia Center without paying a fare.

The program is available Monday through Friday when the Magic play at home, with 31 weeknight home games scheduled for the season. The service offers fans an alternative to driving and finding parking in downtown Orlando on game nights.

How to Ride SunRail for Free to Magic Games

Using the Train-To-The-Game program is straightforward. Fans must show a valid ticket for that day’s Orlando Magic home game to a SunRail conductor or fare inspector to ride at no cost. Both printed tickets and digital tickets displayed on a phone are accepted.

Fans traveling from outside downtown Orlando can also take advantage of free parking at suburban SunRail stations before boarding the train.

Church Street Station is located within walking distance of the Kia Center, making it a convenient option for fans traveling to downtown games.

Know the Last Train Times Before Tipoff

Fans planning to take SunRail to a game should check the schedule carefully, particularly if they expect to stay until the final buzzer. On weeknight game days, the last northbound train departs Church Street Station at 10:32 p.m., while the last southbound train leaves at 11:01 p.m.

Depending on the game’s start time and how long it runs, fans may need to leave the arena before the end of the event to catch their train. Checking departure times before heading to the Kia Center can help avoid transportation issues after the game.
