Miami Open 2026 Guide: Tennis, Dining, and Luxury Experiences in Miami

Each spring, the world of tennis arrives in South Florida for one of the most exciting events of the year. The Miami Open presented by Itaú returns  March 15–29 at Hard Rock Stadium, transforming the city into a two-week global destination for tennis, style, and luxury hospitality.

As one of the most prestigious tournaments outside the Grand Slams, the Miami Open brings together the world’s top ATP and WTA players for two weeks of elite competition, unforgettable matches, and world-class entertainment.

Fans will have their eyes on superstars like Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Świątek battling it out on court. But beyond tennis, the Miami Open is also known for its vibrant social scene, featuring luxury lounges, gourmet dining, live music, and immersive fan experiences throughout the stadium grounds.

If you’re attending the tournament or planning a day at the stadium, here are a few experiences you won’t want to miss.

The Zuma Pop-Up: One of the Best Dining Experiences at the Miami Open

Legendary dining is part of the Miami Open experience, including gourmet cuisine from internationally renowned restaurant Zuma.

The acclaimed Japanese izakaya will pop up inside Hard Rock Stadium and serve as the tournament’s only full-service, sit-down restaurant during the Open. If you’ve experienced Zuma before, you already know it’s worth reserving a table between matches.

Where to Eat After the Matches: Cecconi’s Miami Beach

If you’re looking for the perfect post-match dinner spot, our top recommendation is Cecconi's Miami Beach, located on the ground floor of Soho House Miami.

The vibe is classic Miami: high energy, beautiful, and effortlessly stylish, with consistently great food and a lively atmosphere that makes it ideal after a day of tennis. If you’re a member, you can also head upstairs to the members-only bar for an after-dinner cocktail.

Our go-to order? The wood-oven pizza topped with buffalo mozzarella, tomato, and oregano. Always a win.

Sky-High Views at the Piper-Heidsieck Sky View

For unforgettable views, don’t miss the gondola experience at the Piper-Heidsieck Sky View.

Floating above the Miami Open campus, this elevated ride offers breathtaking panoramic sights of the action below. The experience runs March 15–29 at Palm Court, making it one of the most unique ways to take in the energy of the tournament.

Test Your Skills at the Baptist Health Skills Zone

Get ready to unleash your inner tennis pro at the Baptist Health Skills Zone, taking over Palm Court from March 15–19.

Test your reflexes on the reaction wall, perfect your swing in the Ball Kid Challenge, knock down targets in Knock ‘Em Down, or rally it out in pickleball. It’s high-energy, hands-on fun for all ages—because at the Miami Open, the action isn’t just on the main courts.
