The 2016 Orlando City SC season was the club's sixth season of existence in Orlando, and second season in Major League Soccer, the top-flight league in the United States soccer league system.

On July 15, 2015, Orlando City opened an additional 4,000 seats for sale to potential season ticket holders, bringing the total available season tickets to 18,000. The extra allotment sold out on August 18, 2015. Season tickets are again sold out for the 2016 season.

On October 15, 2015, Orlando City announced that they would field an owned-and-operated team in the United Soccer League, Orlando City B. The team will begin play in the 2016 season at Eastern Florida State College's Melbourne campus.

On January 13, 2016, Orlando City accounced that they would play the entire 2016 season at Camping World Stadium. They had hoped to move into their new soccer-specific stadium in September, but construction delays made that impossible. The team will instead move in 2017. [Attendance figures due to the squad playing in Camping World Stadium, which seats 65,000 (40,000 in the lower bowl). The Seattle Sounders share CenturyLink Field with the NFL's Seahawks.]
