FAQs
Is there a fee for the ticket?
To help offset the cost of the venue and entertainment, and sustain an event of this size, there is a registration fee of $5/person for those who register in advance. Advanced registration ends Monday, April 25th at 11:59 P.M. After that, late and on-site registration is $10/person. We understand that some families may have financial constraints, to request a Registration Fee Waiver for you and your family, please submit the form at: https://goo.gl/forms/a1e7M7CQu4krJqJm2
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
Yes and no. You need to bring your ticket but you can have it printed OR on your phone to save paper. Your ticket will be checked upon entry of the event. Because we are expecting 4,000+ people, the only way Eid Orlando can ensure everyone has adequate space is to make registration MANDATORY. Again, this is so we can make sure there is a spot for YOU! :) Please register and bring your ticket to avoid delays.
What are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event?
The West Concourse parking lot will be available for parking at a reduced fee of $10. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND all drivers to drop-off family members especially elderly and those who require assistance at the designated "Drop-off Zone" at the front entrance prior to parking. Additional parking is available at the Rosen Centre Hotel. Carpooling is highly encouraged as parking may become limited.
What time will Eid Salaat begin?
Takbirat will begin at 9:00am and Eid Salaat will begin Insha'Allah at 9:30am sharp. We anticipate long lines and traffic to the Convention Center, so we highly recommend that you plan to arrive 45 - 60 minutes prior to the the start of prayer so you have ample time to park, walk over, and ensure your spot in the main hall. Doors open at 8:00am.
Should I bring my own prayer rug?
This year we are praying in a West Concourse hall which is carpeted. The prayer area will be clean, but if you prefer, you are welcome to bring your own prayer rugs. Chairs will be available for those who require them.
Will there be boxes available to collect Fitrah?
Yes. Boxes exclusively for Zakat-ul-Fitr will be available till the start of Eid Salaat. Eid Orlando highly encourages its attendees to pay their Zakat-ul-Fitr in advance at their respective institutions/Masjids. This will allow for the timely distribution to those in need. Any Zakat-ul-Fitr collected on-site will be given to an appropriate organization/Masjid to distribute according to the Sunnah.
What time will the kids activities begin as well as food for purchase?
The Entertainment hall will open right after prayer is finished.
What types of activities will be available for kids?
Arrangements have been made for all ages to enjoy, including teenagers! This may include but is not limited to, bounce houses/inflatables, face painting, etc.
Will there be HALAL food available?
Yes, multiple vendors will be present to serve our Muslim guests. Eid Orlando has made arrangements with the Orange County Convention Center for HALAL food to be available for purchase. Cash and credit cards will be accepted.
