Nu Stadium at Miami Freedom Park
Nu Stadium is Inter Miami CF’s new home venue located in Miami and opening on April 4. The landmark venue headlines a 131-acre, sports-anchored entertainment district, the largest in the Southeast, set to become a year-round destination for dining, shopping, experiences, and attractions. Miami Freedom Park is one of the most significant sports-anchored mixed-use projects underway in the United States. Developed by the ownership group of Inter Miami CF, the district is anchored by Nu Stadium, a new 26,700-seat, world-class stadium and is being delivered as a phased, year-round destination designed to serve Miami residents, the region, and visitors alike—on matchdays and far beyond. The multi-phase development program includes more than 1 million square feet of retail, dining, entertainment, and office space, alongside multiple hotels totaling 750 hotel rooms and a robust network of civic spaces, plazas, and recreational amenities designed for daily and seasonal activations. At its core, Miami Freedom Park integrates professional sports, live entertainment, hospitality, commerce, and public life into a single, highly connected campus that supports daily activity as well as large-scale international events. Miami Freedom Park also incorporates the 58-acre Jorge Mas Canosa Park—the largest new public park planned in the City of Miami in generations—along with community athletic fields and expansive outdoor gathering areas. Construction on the project began in 2023 and will commence opening in phases beginning in 2026, starting with the stadium and select district components, including youth athletic fields, programmed civic and plaza spaces for fan zones and seasonal activations, and an inaugural collection of restaurants, attractions, and retailers.
