800,000 square feet of indoors

Dezerland Park takes a former mall on International Drive and fills it — 800,000 square feet — with attractions. It's Orlando's rainy-day fortress: everything under one roof, air-conditioned, and dense enough to fill a full day without a plan.

Dezerland Park Orlando | Welcome to Sam Jose

Visit Orlando

Visit Orlando's official welcome video tours Dezerland Park with hosts Sam and Jose, covering the 800,000-square-foot indoor complex on International Drive. They race the go-karts — electric and surprisingly quiet — and preview the rest: axe throwing, glow-in-the-dark mini golf, and the Orlando Auto Museum's rows of Vespas and classic cars.

Key takeaways
  • Dezerland packs 800,000 square feet of indoor attractions under one roof
  • The go-karts are electric, fast, and quiet
  • Glow-in-the-dark mini golf and axe throwing round out the action side

  • Movie and TV cars are the headline exhibits
  • Plan real time — the collection fills hall after hall

The Biggest ARCADE in Orlando Florida! - Dezerland Park

Arcade Warrior

Arcade Warrior explores Dezerland Park Orlando, home to what he calls the biggest arcade in Orlando, playing his way through the games inside the massive indoor complex on International Drive.

The anchor: Orlando Auto Museum

Michael Dezer's private collection fills hall after hall — one of the largest auto collections anywhere, anchored by movie and TV cars, muscle cars, and oddities that get The Carpetbagger's full running commentary. Plan real time here; reviewers consistently underestimate it and end up lingering. The museum alone justifies the trip for car people.

The action side

  • Electric go-karts — fast and, as Visit Orlando's hosts note, surprisingly quiet
  • The arcade — billed by Arcade Warrior as the biggest in Orlando
  • Glow-in-the-dark mini golf and axe throwing — the novelty tier
  • Bumper cars and more — the 4K walkthrough on this page shows how much is packed in

How to use it

Car fans: museum first, while your attention is fresh. Everyone else: karts and arcade, then wander. Dezerland's strength is density — when a Florida afternoon storm kills an outdoor plan, this is the save that doesn't feel like a compromise.
