About the stadium
Inter Miami changed homes in April 2026, and since then plays at Nu Stadium — a new stadium inside the Miami Freedom Park complex in the heart of Miami — 26,700 seats, right next to Miami International Airport, in a huge complex of about 530 dunams. The debut match was held on 4 April 2026 and ended 2:2 against Austin. Until then the club played in Fort Lauderdale, about 45 kilometers to the north, and old content still sends tourists to the wrong city — make sure the address you have is 1000 Stadium Drive, Miami. The bowl is built on two continuous levels: the 100 level wraps close around the pitch, the 200 level closes above it, and the west side is a premium area with a separate entrance. The north end is home to the organized supporter groups, and the south and west are much quieter. The proximity to the airport has made the stadium one of the most accessible in the league: a free automated train from the terminal, then a short walk across a bridge.
FAQ
How do you get tickets for an Inter Miami match?
It's hard, and that's not a feeling but a structure. At the top of the chain at Inter Miami is the season ticket — the club states explicitly that this is the only way to guarantee access to all 17 home matches, and anyone without a season ticket comes after season-ticket holders at every stage. Single tickets are released in waves throughout the season, and not all matches open together: in the January 2026 wave only some matches opened, and the club stated officially that the most in-demand matches were not yet available to the general public; only in February did 16 of the 17 open. There's a cap of up to six season-ticket deposits per household, and the club enforces it by clustering email addresses, IP addresses, home address and phone number — with the right to cancel immediately. Ticket resellers are explicitly excluded from the terms, and even an application submitted with intent to resell is cancelled. The ticket itself is a one-time entry license, not an asset: a duplicated, lost or forged ticket simply isn't honored at the gate, and unauthorized resale leads to seizure and cancellation with no refund. Selling on stadium grounds and in the car parks is also strictly forbidden. What is allowed, and even recommended: transferring a ticket to a friend or family member in advance, so everyone enters with their own device. TikTik obtains tickets for Inter Miami home matches at Nu Stadium without a season ticket and without waiting for the next sales wave.
How do you get to Nu Stadium?
This is one of the easiest stadiums in the world to reach, because it sits right next to Miami International Airport. The only station that serves it is the Miami Intermodal Center, located inside the airport complex, from which it's about 800 meters on foot — around ten minutes — over a pedestrian bridge across the canal. The operator itself describes it as a ten-minute walk, and club ambassadors are stationed on site to guide fans. From the terminals to that station you travel on the MIA Mover, a free automated train that departs from Level 3. From the city you arrive via Metrorail on the Orange Line, which runs directly to the airport station; on match day the frequency is about every quarter hour, and the service operates from five in the morning until midnight. From the north you can also arrive on the Tri-Rail regional train to the Miami Airport station, and after matches it runs a special train around ten at night. The address: 1000 Stadium Drive, Miami, FL 33125. And worth knowing: anyone arriving by public transport who shows a ticket and proof of travel gets a $10 credit for food and drink at the customer service booth outside block 101, one credit per person per match.
Is there parking at Nu Stadium?
Yes, but it must be purchased in advance. The club states explicitly that anyone planning to park on site must buy parking in advance, and that there will be no on-site parking sales on match day — anyone who arrives by car without pre-purchased parking will find this out at the entrance. There are three lots on the site, and of these only the Yellow Lot is open to single-ticket buyers; the other two are reserved for season ticket holders. Accessible parking is available in all lots subject to availability, and there is also an accessible shuttle from the trolley station at the transportation hub on match days. In practice, since the stadium sits on a train station inside the airport, most tourists benefit more from arriving by public transport than by rental car.
How do you get to an Inter Miami match from Israel?
There is a direct flight from Tel Aviv to Miami: El Al operates the route to Miami International Airport, MIA, and it also appears in Miami Airport's official destination documents and in the Israel Airports Authority's flight schedule. It's important to know that there is no direct flight to Fort Lauderdale, so anyone who finds a cheap ticket to FLL needs to factor in a connection and an additional trip. Landing in Miami is the big advantage: from the terminal you take the free MIA Mover to the transportation hub, and from there it's a ten-minute walk to the stadium — no taxi and no intercity train needed. Anyone who does land in Fort Lauderdale will take the free shuttle to the Tri-Rail station, about forty-five minutes by train to the Miami Airport station, and then the same walk — at least an hour and a half door to door. You can also arrive via a connection through Europe, among other options through London, Madrid, Paris, Frankfurt, Rome, Amsterdam or Lisbon. The time difference: Israel is seven hours ahead of Miami, and only in the week between 25 and 31 October 2026 does the difference narrow to six hours, because Israel ends daylight saving time before the United States does. Before buying a flight ticket, it's worth confirming the route's operating days with the airline for your date.
Does an Israeli need a visa to fly to the United States for a match?
No visa, but yes an online entry authorization. Israel is part of the United States' Visa Waiver Program, so an ESTA authorization is enough. The fee has been $40.27 since 1 January 2026, and the authorization is valid for two years or until the passport expires — whichever comes first — and allows a stay of up to 90 days per entry. Important: a two-year authorization is not a two-year right of stay. The authorization is tied to the passport, so a new passport or a name change requires a new application at full cost. Every traveler needs their own authorization, including infants, and even someone who is only transiting through the United States. The authorities' recommendation is to apply before buying flight tickets, and to allow up to 72 hours for a response. The obstacle that trips up Israelis: a biometric passport is required, and for an adult a passport issued for ten years — anyone aged 18 or older who holds an Israeli passport issued for five years cannot use ESTA at all. Under 18, a five-year passport is enough. From 2026 a selfie photo is also required on the application form. Finally, an ESTA authorization does not guarantee entry: the decision rests with the border officer at the airport, and a return or onward flight ticket is a condition of entry. Having stayed in certain countries from 2011 onward, or holding dual citizenship of some of them, cancels the waiver and requires a regular visa — anyone this applies to should check the official website before booking.
Where is it best to sit at Nu Stadium?
The atmosphere is concentrated in the north block, home to La Familia — the umbrella group of the club's official supporters' groups. This refers to blocks 131, 132 and 133, and above them 231 and 233. Watch out for the point that catches people out: this is a safe standing area, meaning fans stand there throughout the match. It's the right choice for anyone who's there for the noise, and a less good choice for an older couple or a family with a young child. The away section is block 202. The rest of the bowl is built on two tiers: the 100 level is closer to the pitch and in the east also includes viewing areas right by the touchline, and the 200 level closes over it in a continuous bowl. For calmer viewing it's better to aim for the south or west side, away from the north. Families should know that there are baby-changing stations and family facilities at several points on the 200 level, and that the customer service booth by blocks 201 and 202 hands out free ID wristbands for children and sensory kits.
What's special about Inter Miami's 2026 season?
This is the first season in the new home, and right after the club's first-ever title: Inter Miami won the MLS Cup in December 2025 with a 3:1 win over Vancouver. On the touchline is a new coach — Guillermo Hoyos, who was the club's sporting director and was appointed to the role after Javier Mascherano left for personal reasons in April 2026, along with the entire staff he had brought with him. The squad still includes Leo Messi, under contract until the end of the 2028 season, alongside Luis Suárez, Rodrigo De Paul, Casemiro and Sergio Reguilón — but the Barcelona lineage has gotten shorter: Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba retired from football at the end of the 2025 season, both as MLS Cup champions. It's worth saying this openly: the lineup in any given match depends on fitness, injuries and the coach's decisions, and no one can guarantee in advance who will take the field. And a practical angle worth planning around: the Miami season overlaps with hurricane season, which runs from June through the end of November and peaks on September 10. That's not a reason not to fly, but it is a reason to choose travel insurance that covers weather disruptions and to keep flexibility in your flight dates.
What's Inter Miami's big match in the 2026 season?
Inter Miami's historic rivalry is with Orlando City, and that's the only match of the season the club officially brands as a rivalry night — but the truth needs to be told: the home derby was already played on 2 May 2026 and ended in a loss, and there is no further home match against Orlando this year. Among the remaining home matches, the big one is 12 September against Nashville — a top-of-the-table clash. As of mid-August 2026 these are the top two teams in the Eastern Conference, with Nashville leading by a few points. It's also worth knowing that almost all home matches are held on Saturday evening, a time that's especially convenient for tourists — a free day in the city before the match, and back at the hotel around half past ten at night. The club also attaches its own theme night to some of the matches, from the club's foundation night to Hispanic Heritage Night in September.
