Roaring boat engines and screaming fans could be coming back to this iconic waterfront venue.
City leaders are moving forward with plans to revive the historic Miami Marine Stadium on Virginia Key, an iconic but long-abandoned waterfront venue shuttered for more than 30 years.
Built in 1963 and located one-third over the water on Virginia Key, the iconic venue was shut down in 1992 after Hurricane Andrew. Since then, it has become a canvas for graffiti artists and a symbol of Miami’s lost potential. But supporters never gave up.
The city recently released new digital renderings you can see HERE showcasing a potential transformation: a vibrant, modern venue where major artists could once again headline concerts, surrounded by the shimmering waters of Biscayne Bay.
If approved, Miami Marine Stadium could once again be a thriving cultural destination, this time, with modern upgrades, a sustainable business model, and a renewed sense of purpose.
