Inter Miami Opens 26,700-Seat Nu Stadium With Austin FC Opener

The new home is built to lift revenue by anchoring Inter Miami inside the Miami Freedom Park development.

Overview

  • Inter Miami inaugurates Nu Stadium on Saturday against Austin FC, with Marc Anthony set to sing the national anthem at the opening.
  • The venue holds 26,700 fans, sits near Miami International Airport inside Miami Freedom Park, and cost about $350 million after nearly three years of construction.
  • A naming-rights deal with Nubank gives the stadium its name, adds a shirt-back logo from August, and introduces premium spaces called NU Club and Nu Plaza.
  • One stand is now the Leo Messi Stand, a rare honor for an active player, and the team held its first official training there on Thursday with fans invited in.
  • The club will stage concerts and large events starting with Carín León on June 28, while regular training stays in Fort Lauderdale as exterior work continues.
