Located adjacent to Camping World Stadium, Tinker Field is a historic landmark that long served as a Spring Training ballpark and civil rights site. Though the original grandstands were demolished in 2015, the open grounds remain operational as a major venue for events and music festivals like EDC Orlando. A memorial plaza on-site commemorates the area's baseball legacy and historic 1964 Civil Rights gathering.
History
