Orlando Pride Unveil New ‘Unity Kit’ Ahead of 2026 Season

With their new secondary kits, the Orlando Pride paid tribute to the strength and spirit of the Orlando community in the wake of the horrific 2016 mass shooting at the Pulse nightclub. That senseless tragedy still resonates in the team’s home stadium with the 49 rainbow-colored seats that honor the victims. The ‘Unity Kit,’ which will serve as the secondary kit for the Pride through the 2027 NWSL season, features multicolored interlocking ribbons to symbolize the way Central Florida came together at that time, now 10 years past.

The Pride not only unveiled the new kits today, with a special launch event planned for tonight at The Final Whistle at Thornton Park Pub at 6 p.m., but the club also announced it will donate $20,000 from jersey sales to The Center Orlando, whose Orlando United Resiliency Services (OURS) program continues to provide crucial education, advocacy and support for the LGBT+ community and its allies.

“Orlando’s strength has always come from its people, and the Unity Kit reflects the love, resilience, and courage that define this city,” Orlando Pride/Orlando City Vice President of Community Impact & DEI and Orlando Soccer Foundation Executive Director Kaia Hyde said in a club press release. “In the days after the Pulse tragedy, our community adopted a simple but powerful message: ‘keep dancing.’ It became a reminder that even in the face of unimaginable loss, Orlando would choose optimism, unity and love. This jersey honors that spirit, and we’re proud that its launch will directly support The Center Orlando and the vital work they do for our community.”

The multicolored ribbons weave their way across the front of the new kit in pastels. The jersey’s jock tag features the universal symbol of peace: a dove, carrying an olive branch. The collar, sleeves, name and number on the back, and the front jersey sponsor logo and back bottom jersey sponsor logo feature the club’s standard purple, which pops on the light kits. Orlando Health continues as the kit sponsor, with Publix as the lower-back sponsor and the Heart of United Way returning as the sleeve sponsor.

The shorts and socks are a more subdued purple that makes the jersey stand out even more.

Fans can purchase the new kit online now at ShopOrlandoPride.com or in person at the jersey launch tonight. The launch party will include appearances by Pride players Julie Doyle, Oihane, and Hannah Anderson, Orlando Pride Head Coach Seb Hines, and new Vice President of Soccer Operations and General Manager Caitlin Carducci. Those who pick up their Unity jersey tonight in person can get a an Orlando United patch while supplies last. Fans can also participate in a silent disco dance party, and there will be prize giveaways. The new kit will be available at The Den starting on Friday.
