We have been to a number of Miami Heat matches here and always had a great view, regardless of where our seats were. There are plenty of food and drink stands/vendors and a number of shops selling Miami Heat clothes and other souvenirs. The temperature has always been very comfortable when we have been there, even when it has been full. Watching a Heat match at the American Airlines Arena is an absolute must when visiting Miami!
Located in Miami´s city center aside the Byscaine bay area. A big sports arena where basketball games are played, home of the Miami Heat. It is also an area for popular concerts held in Miami. It has a capacity for about 20,000 people inside.
The wait to enter the arena is not long although the place is much frequented. You'll find everything you need into the arena to eat and drink during your game and the Miami Heat Store is just HUGE.
We're Miami natives and resididents. AAA arena always comes through with a world-class experience. Recently, the food has also been upgraded as well. Pro tip: Valet is pricey and takes a long time. Instead, park in one of the lots to the East(usually about a two blocks) cheaper and easier to get in and out of during the rush
Overall a great and beautiful stadium. Security lines took a long time, lucky it was nice outside, but it definitely felt like they could have been more organized. The Miami Heat game was fun to watch and they had a lot of great entertainment during timeouts and half time.
You have to watch a game here - enjoy the atmosphere and the entertainment!
Great food and shops in the arena. Very friendly stewards and clean place.
