Business event venues near Disney World range from large convention resorts in the Bonnet Creek and Lake Buena Vista area to major conference hotels and the Orange County Convention Center along the International Drive corridor.
This list focuses on venues that can support conferences, conventions, annual meetings, training programs, exhibits, and other business events. Lasting Blueprint Productions has filmed at several of the properties below; those sections include first-hand production notes or examples from work completed at the venue.
10 Business Event Venues Near Disney World
Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center
Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Kissimmee is one of the largest convention resorts close to Walt Disney World. The property offers more than 500,000 square feet of meeting and event space, including large ballrooms, exhibit areas, breakout rooms, pre-function space, and outdoor venues.
For planners comparing large-scale conference hotels near Disney, Gaylord Palms is suited to programs that need multiple room types in one property rather than a single ballroom or meeting room.
Caribe Royale Orlando
Caribe Royale Orlando is a large convention resort near the Disney area with ballrooms, breakout rooms, exhibit space, and outdoor event areas. Its layout can support conferences that combine general sessions, smaller breakouts, networking, and exhibitor activity.
Our filming experience: We have filmed conference sessions, interviews, attendee activity, and event b-roll at Caribe Royale. For video production, the main planning issue is the schedule: when sessions overlap in different rooms, camera and operator coverage needs to be assigned by room rather than moved between sessions after they begin.
For broader multi-room coverage, see our conference video production services.

The Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld
Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld is in the convention and attraction district between Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando. The hotel offers more than 200,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor function space, with large ballrooms, breakout rooms, an atrium, and outdoor event areas.
It is a practical option for organizations that want a resort hotel with enough room for a large general session plus smaller meetings or breakouts without moving attendees to another property.
The Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort Bonnet Creek
Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort Bonnet Creek is within the Bonnet Creek resort area near Walt Disney World. It has about 50,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space across meeting rooms, ballrooms, boardroom space, and outdoor areas.
The Ponce de Leon Ballroom is the property’s largest meeting room at 7,950 square feet, and the hotel lists meeting configurations for groups ranging from small meetings to several hundred attendees. This makes it a better fit for mid-size conferences and corporate programs than the very largest convention properties on this list.

Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek
Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek is an official Walt Disney World hotel and a large meeting property in the Bonnet Creek area. It now offers more than 231,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, including ballrooms, meeting rooms, pre-function areas, and newer waterside event space.
The property is suited to conferences and conventions that need guest rooms and substantial meeting space in the same resort complex.
Hyatt Regency Orlando
Hyatt Regency Orlando on International Drive is a large convention hotel next to the Orange County Convention Center district. The hotel lists 315,000 square feet of flexible meeting and conference space, including large ballrooms, breakout rooms, pre-function areas, and outdoor space.
Its size makes it useful for large conferences that need a major general-session room plus multiple concurrent meeting spaces. Its location also works well for programs tied to activity at the convention center.
Rosen Shingle Creek
Rosen Shingle Creek is a large Orlando conference resort with extensive ballroom, breakout, pre-function, and outdoor event space. It can support large general sessions as well as programs spread across several rooms.
Our filming experience: We have provided event video production at Rosen Shingle Creek, including conference and summit coverage. For filming, the size of the property makes room assignments, walking time, camera placement, and audio planning important when different parts of the program happen in separate spaces.

The Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate
The Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate is southwest of Walt Disney World and offers 255,000 square feet of meeting space across 69 meeting rooms, plus substantial outdoor event space.
Our filming experience: We have filmed conference and summit coverage at the Omni. The combination of large ballrooms, breakout rooms, pre-function areas, and resort spaces gives planners several options, but a filming plan should account for travel time between rooms when sessions or interviews are scheduled close together.
JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes
JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes is a large resort and meeting property south of the main International Drive convention district. The hotel currently lists more than 187,000 square feet of event space across 51 event rooms, with ballrooms, breakouts, and outdoor options.
Our filming experience: We have provided videography at JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes, including a beauty advisor seminar. The property can accommodate programs using a main presentation room along with adjacent meeting spaces, interviews, and event activity elsewhere in the resort.
Orange County Convention Center
The Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) is the largest venue on this list. Its campus totals about 7 million square feet, including more than 2 million square feet of exhibit space and hundreds of meeting and breakout rooms across the West and North-South buildings.
Our filming experience: We have filmed conference sessions, exhibitor presentations, booth activity, and trade-show b-roll at the OCCC. Because the campus is so large, filming plans need to account for the specific building, hall, meeting room, loading access, and walking time between locations.
For trade shows, it is also useful to identify in advance whether the priority is a booth, an education session, exhibitor interviews, show-floor b-roll, or a combination of those deliverables.
Choosing a Business Event Venue Near Disney World
The best venue depends on more than proximity to the theme parks. For a conference or corporate event, compare the number and size of meeting rooms, whether sessions overlap, exhibit and pre-function space, attendee lodging, load-in access, and how far speakers and attendees need to move between rooms.
If the event will be filmed, also confirm camera positions, access times, available audio feeds, power, loading rules, and any venue requirements for outside production vendors. Those details can affect the number of cameras and operators needed even when two venues have similar room capacities.
Once the venue and schedule are set, our conference video production services can cover sessions, interviews, event b-roll, and edited conference deliverables.
