My first time attending a Miami open event. It was definitely very cute and aesthetic. I attended the 2026 fan day event... Unfortunately the weather did not agree with us too much that day. And we did not get to see any practices and we were basically rained out and had to leave early. However, they set up was super cute and I definitely saw the potential for it to have been the most amazing day that I'm sure the actual event days got to see. I would definitely want to return to attend an event in the future! Parking was a little difficult as it took a while to enter the parking lot however, parking was free on the fan day event. At least we got a couple nice pictures out of it. :D read more

Attended the Miami Open for the first time and had a really great experience overall. The decor and overall production/setup were impressive--everything felt thoughtfully designed and well organized. The food vendors were top-notch with plenty of solid options. I also loved the extra touches, like La Roche-Posay giving out free sunscreen samples and even Brooklyn Ellis having a booth--it added to the overall vibe. I'm not a big tennis expert, but I still enjoyed catching a few matches and had a genuinely good time. I can definitely see why this event draws such a big crowd, and I'd absolutely come back. Big shoutout to the staff working behind the scenes--everything was clean, well-stocked, and ran smoothly. Your hard work really shows and is appreciated! read more

Miami Open 2026 in full swing at Hard Rock Stadium. I went on opening day and unfortunately was raining most of the day and did not get to see any of the players or games. The rain could not stop me from enjoying all the fun and good vibes the Miami Open had to offer. Many food stands, live music and DJs, bars and plenty of sponsor stands. I picked up a lot of free goodies including my favorite hair brand Moroccanoil. Enjoyed the lounge area and arcades,The Cadillac stand where they had vehicles on display and even a racing simulator where you can drive the Miami Grand Prix circuit. Also the Piper Heidsieck sky view gondola ride with panoramic views of the tournament grounds. The entire ride was 25 minutes. Overall great experience just make sure you attend on a non rainy/lightning day lol. read more

As the 2026 Miami Open concludes, this year I was able to enjoy the festivities and events during the 2 week long competition. Hardrock stadium continues to amaze me event after event as they put on a great production always. For tennis lovers or even non lovers, the Miami Open will win your heart. Love the ease of parking and flow of foot traffic in and around the grounds. Vendors and activities and food outlets are plenty and carefully curated and positioned well around the stadium. Staff were all friendly and well educated on event information. The skyride is a must try to get a view from above as you get to take in every inch of the Miami Open from a different perspective. Love the great placements of the courts allowing you to get a great view from any location and even meet and greet players during practice. They offer plenty of seating and tv viewing locations so you can catch the action all day from anywhere on the grounds with lounges and chairs and huge screen TVs. Definitely recommended you experience the event year after year! read more

This was my second time at the Miami open, and despite the rain, I still had an amazing time. Didn't get to see any tennis matches due to the rain, but still got to experience the Miami open events such as all the vendors, restaurants, bars, etc. I got so many free samples from the brands, and got to try so many yummy foods and drinks. I will say it's quite annoying how they close everything down when it's raining, even if it's a covered vendor, but I get it they have to play it safe. read more

I had the best time at the Miami Open this year! I was invited by my Pilates class for a mat session Sponsored by Moroccan oil , which was such a unique and fun way to kick off the day. After class, we had access to the grounds and matches which made the whole experience feel even more special. I got to watch Hailey Baptiste take on Aryna Sabalenka, and the energy was unreal. There's nothing like seeing that level of talent live the crowd, the intensity, everything just hits different in person. Of course, I had to make my rounds for food and stopped by Miami Slice and enjoyed a refreshing glass of Santa Margherita, which was the perfect combo while soaking in the atmosphere. Overall, such a fun, vibrant experience from start to finish. Between the wellness activation, great matches, and amazing food, it was a perfect day. I'll definitely be back next year read more

I've had the opportunity to catch two days of Miami open so far. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate for one of the three days I had tickets for. Opening day although also rainy was a good day. I had lots of fun and enjoyed the installations. I pre purchased the Ace of taste food pass which was a great move, as I was able to choose six places to sample food from. Cheeseburger baby, Miami slice, and Santo Dulce were my favs. With an honorable mention for Chugs who wasn't on the passport but the Mongolian beef pastries were soooo delicious! My drink of choice has been a paloma. Dobel tequilas rendition was a bit different in a good way. I enjoyed watching matches and interacting with people I've never met as we all buzzed about. If you've never attended, I highly recommend doing so. read more

This was my first time coming to the Miami Open pen and I enjoyed it. I loved how the tickets and parking were complimentary. There was entertainment and amazing vendors giving away great goodies. I also enjoyed the arcade and the photo ops around. We got there at 10 AM and were able to take some pictures before it rained. To drink, I had the Frose from Santa Margherita and I absolutely loved it. It was a great size and a decent price. It also came in a cute cup. The only bad thing about the event was that all the practices were canceled due to the weather. Despite it, I had a blast and plan to return. read more

The Miami Open professional tennis tournament annually every March is on the grounds of Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. The 4 Grand Slams are in Queens, Melbourne, Paris & Wimbleton. This is one of the largest tennis tournaments outside the Grand Slams drawing 64 top players from the ATP & WTA for 2 weeks. Itau, a Brazilian bank is this years sponsor. This temporary stadium is erected in the Dolphins Football Stadium with almost 14,000 center court sats & 5,000 in the grandstands and 30 permanent courts outside the stadium. We purchased our doubles semi quarter reserved seats months in advance. Parking was $40 for the day, discounted parking passes for $25 came with our package. Ground passes are the least expensive and Curbside box seats are pricey. We were happy to have grandstand seats in the shade, front & center court. There were Hispanic Heritage Days, Kids Day, Brazilian Heritage Day, Women's Empowerment Day, College Night & an Out in the Open Pride Day. Showcased were performances throughout the grounds, featuring local DJs & some Grammy-nominated musicians. Local artists & diverse designers created vibrant murals & art installations, with photo experiences were perfect for capturing the #Moment. I appreciate the vendors selling tennis focused items. The clothing, jewelry, visors ... all were very expensive and eye catching! Forty expensive upscale dining & beverage options were available throughout the tournament. Miami restaurants included were Fabel Middle Eastern, Omakai Sushi Japanese, Novecento Argentinian empenadas, Blue Stone Lane Australian, Casa Tua Cucina Italian, American Social, Angies Ice Cream, Benihana Asian, Bodega Taqueria y Tequilla Mexican, Ella's Oyster Bar, Farmstead chicken, Fatboy Smashburgers, Del Monte Smoothies, Italian ice, Miami Slice Pizza, Pan Venezuelan, Puffles Waffles & Ice Cream, Pincho Latin Street Food, Shula Burger, Some Q, Siggi's Parfaits, Stacked sandwiches, Suviche, Tacotomia, Talkin Taco's, Oakberry healthy, Kiki on the River Greek, and more. Portions were very small, prices very high and the food quality was sub par. The Ace Paloma was the cocktail of the Miami Open. We got to the Open at 11:00 and waited in long lines to park in the assigned yellow lot. We went through lots of security, having our bags hand searched and going through metal detectors. The matches didn't start until 1:00 so we explored shops, got samples & grabbed an expensive disappointing lunch. Players were warming up on the smaller courts. Happily our seats were in the shade. We were in row 25 for the semi finals and were able to see the players & balls clearly. We hours of tennis and all of the fans were courteous. Sanalenka beat Paolino, Mensik beat Fils and for our third match Djokovic beat Korda in a tie breaker. read more

Every year the traffic and parking situation unbearably worse. The event is simply no longer worth it. A 25 minute drive followed by hours of lines to park and shuttle back to the stadium. It takes 2 hours just to get back to wait it parking lines and get to the stadium for about two hours in matches. Then another 1 and 1/2hrs trying to get back to your car. It makes no sense to me that Hard Rock can't build a couple stand alone parking garages instead of making people park at Walmart and other places miles away for events. 40-45$ to lose two hours of your day in lines and shuttles just isn't my idea of a fun day regardless of how nice the grounds are and how good the tennis is- do better. read more

Yes the miami open is an event I recommend for everyone. This is such a nice and unique tennis event that everyone can enjoy. They take over the hardrock stadium and fill it with everything tennis. The outside experience is great for on lookers and kids to walk around and enjoy the many different vender booths where there are activities, games, food, and drinks. read more

We are huge fans of live sports events and this is our first time to the Miami Open. It was a cool experience all in all. Our friends at Editor Ristorante & Pizzeria got us tickets for Grounds Passes to the event. This includes access to all campus competition courts, the Grandstand, practice courts, and all food/drink area. Parking was fully packed. We arrived around 1pm on a Sunday and parking lots were full. They guided us to the Betty T. Ferguson Recreational Complex for overflow parking. It cost us $40 and they offered a shuttle that comes every 10 minutes to transport guests to the main entrance. Worth it. Otherwise, it would have been a lonnnnnng walk. It was a beautiful day to be outdoors enjoying these festivities. They really did an amazing job on the whole set up at Hard Rock Stadium. The food/drink areas were cool booth structures and looked like semi-permanent structures. Check out the photos. Very cool set up. Food was a bit pricey but to be honest, you have to expect to pay a ton of money for food & drinks when you attend these types of events. We got pizza from Editor Pizza for $13 per slice but they legit transported a whole pizza oven for this. Pizza came out super fresh and super hot. #worthit. We also got two massive double bacon cheeseburgers from Cheeseburger Baby at a whopping $24 per burger. To be fair, burgers were massive. These were for the kids. Not gonna lie, it was tasty. but so expensive still. Ha. There was an area with food trucks too. So much to choose from. My favorite part was all the cool stuff to see. I had ADHD walking around. So many cool photo opps. There was a Molecules art installation too. Loved the fake lotus flowers in the main fountain area. Bonus, my favorite sunscreen brand, La Roche-Posay had three different stations where they were handing out sample sized sunscreen. We also went on the Piper-Heidsieck Skyview and that was a great view of the whole event. Cost was $10 for adults and $5 for kids. Be prepared to log into Ticketmaster to purchase the tickets. We had a blast and it was a nice day with the family. read more

What a beautiful and pretty event. Miami open is def for the vibes. If you're not a tennis fan but you come to this you will become one. It's fun and a great time to really watch a sporting event with great food and a cocktail. Everything is so pretty and the best part is that many dress the part to come here. I saw so many people with full tennis outfits that were not there to play. Definitely not hating though! Again I loved the vibe. They had so many different venues of foods that I absolutely love. I ate of course bodega. I wasn't able to drink but I will come back next year for the full experience. It just seemed like such a good time. You were able to meet players, grab Celsius, shop in the lacoste store. I'm going to return next year for sure! read more

Miami Open at Hard Rock: a world-class event in the wrong venue The Miami Open remains one of the premier tournaments in global tennis. But in its current setting at Hard Rock Stadium, it increasingly reflects a mismatch between product and infrastructure. Recent reports from 2026 describe chaotic organization, long lines, denied entry despite valid tickets, and an overall "unprofessional" experience for fans . Pro Football & Sports Network +1 This is not an isolated incident. It is systemic. A venue not built for tennis Hard Rock Stadium is a multi-purpose NFL venue adapted for tennis. But tennis requires: Fluid movement between courts Clear, walkable access Controlled seating in outer courts A distributed fan experience Instead, fans face: Long and confusing routes Overcrowded outer courts Poor access management Constant congestion The result: a fragmented and frustrating experience. Overselling and commercial pressure The day/night session model creates structural overload: Tickets exceed practical capacity Transitions between sessions break down Delays cascade into access restrictions This is not poor planning. It is revenue-driven design. Access control failures One of the most critical failures: Ticket holders denied entry No re-entry logic Inconsistent enforcement Beyond inconvenience, this raises serious safety concerns. The venue has previously faced crowd control issues in major events, highlighting that this is not a new challenge . Wikipedia The core issue: wrong venue The tournament's original home, Crandon Park, was purpose-built for tennis: Compact Walkable Fan-centered The move to Hard Rock solved legal and expansion issues--but not fan experience. More space, less identity. A better path forward 1. Reconsider a tennis-specific venue A purpose-built campus--whether in Key Biscayne or elsewhere--is the long-term solution. 2. Fix operational flaws now Limit overlapping sessions Improve digital access control Structure outer court seating 3. Put the fan back at the center Because without a good fan experience: the product eventually degrades, no matter how strong it looks on paper. Final take The Miami Open is still elite. But its current execution is flawed. Not because of tennis. Not because of players. Because of design, logistics, and priorities. And until that changes, the perception will remain: a world-class event, delivered with second-class execution. read more

Miami Open - Tennis Near Me - Miami Gardens, Florida

It's been 5 years since I last wrote a review about the Miami Open. Although I've been attending every year, lets give some updated details and info about this ladies and men's Masters 1000 tennis tournament that completes the backend of the Sunshine Double with Indian Wells. Hard Rock Stadium is the featured showcase court for all the big names and matches. Hard Rock is home to the NFL's Miami Dolphins football team, but during my 10 days of attending the tourney, I never once even attempted to enter inside the stadium. Because...the views are way too high up for tennis. Especially when the Grandstand and Butch Buchholz Courts (Show Courts 2 and 3) offer much better and closer perspectives of the action. With this said, I'd suggest purchasing a General Admissions ticket or simply a Grounds Pass at the box office located beside the stadium the day of. This way you'll avoid paying some of the hefty fees charged by StubHub, Ticketmaster and SeatGeek. The box office has plenty of windows open daily and the line goes pretty quickly. Prices for tickets just to enter ranged from $15 - $60 depending on what days of the tournament they were. That's worth it for a prestigious tournament like the Miami Open. But here's the thing...for parking, I did buy a pass on StubHub. Now you may be thinking, wow Seth, you're being hypocritical, lol, but for parking in the most frequented lot, the Yellow Lot, it was $40 per day or $35 with a SunPass. That's a lot of money! So I searched on StubHub or there was some person who appeared to have unlimited daily parking passes selling in the range of $5 - $15. Then add all the fees and taxes and I averaged about $18 for my parking passes. So...box office for buying tickets, and StubHub for buying parking passes! I'd highly suggest downloading the Miami Open App. Because it provides the Practice Court Schedule and this is vital for finding players throughout the grounds. Since the event is 2 weeks long, some days your favorites are not always playing and so locating them on practice courts is important. Download the Miami Open App! Practice Courts 8 - 10 is the mecca area of practice courts. Carlos Alcaraz practiced regularly on Court 10. Jannik Sinner practiced mostly on Court 8. For those superstars, the fans and crowds were out of control! It was near impossible to get autographs and pictures with them. Plus, security was very tight around them and practically pushing anyone out of the way if you got too close for a photo. Ugh, security. Practice Courts 17 - 19 were hidden gem areas that had some pretty good players. These courts were accessible to fans and you had guys like Lorenzo Musetti, Sebastian Baez and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina practicing on them. There weren't nearly the crowds by these courts. Practice Courts 11 - 16 and 20 - 24 were inaccessible to the fans. That's too bad because that's practically half of all the practice courts offered on the grounds. But, sometimes at the end of practice, players like Daniil Medvedev and Victoria Azarenka would walk over to the main area beside Courts 8 - 10 and sign autographs and engage with the fans. Besides the Big 3 showcase courts, you also have Play Courts 1 - 6. These courts were near the Grandstand and in my opinion, offered some of the best views and action of the matches. Plus, early in the tournament, you'd still get names like Stefanos Tsitsipas, Andy Murray, Coco Gauff and Ben Shelton playing doubles on them. The crowds would be stuffed on these courts offering zero room. It would be hectic craziness during these times. The stand on Courts 1 - 6 are minimal and not accommodating enough. But to be within feet of some of the tennis greats, that's irreplaceable as a fan! Finally, they have Food Trucks situated on the grounds. That's the new theme for tennis tourneys. A slice of pizza was $9 - $10. Burger and fries were $20. Ice cream $10. You get the gist. They have restaurants too but that's not my thing. Too much going on to think about eating, lol. Overall, the Miami Open features the best tennis players in the world from both the ATP and WTA Tours. You can meet any of your favorite players at some point during the tournament. For the most part, the grounds are set up well for being an NFL football environment that adjusts over to tennis for every 2 weeks of the year. read more

Our family had a blast at the Miami Open. We had tickets for session 6 match was about around 7 PM. Gave us time to walk around the grounds. We had so much fun eating and drinking. Some of the spots we were able to hit up that we loved was the Miami slice. The pizza is so bomb. I highly recommend trying the pepperoni with the hot honey on top divine. I also had to hit up my favorite Truro spot, which is Santo Dulce. They have a food truck there you must try it. They had a new flavor which was Keylime, but unfortunately, they ran out of it so hopefully before the close of Miami Open, I'm able to go there again and try it. Some cool things that happen on the ground was the mariachi band that was playing. I highly recommend attending the more evening matches since the temperature was so cool and it was so comfortable walking around the ground. The match we attended was at the stadium. It was so much fun so full of life inside the stadium. They have also plenty of food courts to go and grab a snack or food or drink. Highly recommend this experience if you've never done it. read more

First time at the Miami Open and I had the best experience, highly recommend! Came on Wednesday night for the 7pm session to see Naomi Osaka play. I made sure to get great seats right above court side and it was well worth it. Outside of the tournaments there is so much to do as well. There is a huge outdoor space filled with well know miami restaurants as well as popular wine and beverage pop ups that you can enjoy. There are also other activities to enjoy. Great for groups and families also. read more

If you are looking for a fun, unique, tennis field social weekend - miami open is the place for you! I would highly recommend purchasing the all day sessions inside of the stadium so that you can come and go as you please. They have matches in the outside stadiums too but they are all directly under the sun and the seating is on a first come first serve basis. The food and beverage activations are so cool! There are so many food vendors to choose from and there is no shortage of delicious cocktail. The specialty drink of the Miami open is a Paloma, if you can make it to that booth they have the best tequila popsicles and you can even get their entire bottle in a pretty neat container for $55 Bodega has a shop as it's super convenient grab and go choices I had the steak tacos but my vegetarian friends had the nachos and they were delicious too. If you need an afternoon pick me up one of the food courts has a croqueta and cafesito booth which are a must try! It was my first time having a 305 (mofongo style) and a Mac and cheese croqueta and it did not dissapoint. Tip: do yourself a favor and purchase parking in advance. The stadium gets super busy and parking fills up FAST! I can't wait to be back next year! read more

I always look forward to the open! this is the second year ive attended it at its new location and i must say i like it 10x more then the location that was in key biscayne. Its way more interactive.. the buildout they do every year is even more impressive. ands the layout just makes so much more sense! You can get a campus pass for as little as $20 and see the lesser matches all day... .. you need specific tickets to see the main matches that happen in the "bowl". There is so much to do on site that you can literally spend the whole day without seeing any tennis matches and still have a good time. There are photobooths. murals everywhere for pics. corporate activations. on site bars and restaurant popups. and much more... looking forward to next yrs events! read more

Had a blast at the Miami Open, and I'm not even really a hardcore tennis fan! It was amazing how much there was to see and do. Tons of food options, vendors, and activities. We had some great cocktails from No. 3 London Dry Gin, along with having fun at their interactive Photo Booth. At $23 for a double, it honestly was on par if not a better value than some drinks you get in the city! We ate at the Kiki's on the River pop-up. It was pretty pricey, but service was great, food high quality, and it was a great viewing area, so we didn't feel like we didn't get what we paid for. The fries at the Stella tent were probably the standout though - so crispy and flavorful and fun to try all the different truffle sauces. I will say one of the opportunities was having more non-alcoholic cocktails/beers available, as a member of our party doesn't drink alcohol. Pretty surprised Stella was there and not promoting their new non-alcoholic beer. We also checked out the Lacoste store, which was really fun. Lots of exclusive merch and cool that they were including special Miami Open patches for free with purchase. Really appreciated La Roche Posay was giving out free sunscreen samples. While it was largely a rainy day when I went, the sunscreen did come in handy for the brief moments the strong sun came out for. As far as the tennis, it was pretty smooth getting to and finding our seats. Lots of staff around to help direct you and facilities were pretty clean and plentiful. read more

For tennis fans this is a great tournament to attend. They offer an array of food and drinks throughout the facility such as tacos, Italian, Colombian and so on. Some popular local places are there as well such as Kiki on the river and Bodega Taqueria just to name a couple. If you're looking for memorabilia or gear they have the Lacoste store and tennis plaza store. I'd recommend the Botran lounge for some fine spirits. The cable car ride allows you take have a Birdseye view of the entire area and provide awesome scenes for epic pics from above. read more

I haven't been to the Miami open since it was held on Key Biscayne and was so delighted with my experience yesterday. It's amazing to see the transformation of Hard Rock Stadium into a tennis mecca with so many activations in addition to tennis. You can purchase main stadium tickets, grandstand tickets, or day passes to access the food/drink etc. There is something for everyone when it comes to the type of experience you want to have. The food and drink options are incredible. This is not your regular hot dog and nacho sporting event (although you can indulge in those as well). From the food court featuring local restaurant faves like dos croquetas and omakai sushi, to the bodega lounge, Kim Crawford wine bar, KIKI on the river lounge, the Wharf experience - you can find something fun to do, drink and eat. A very Miami experience indeed. One thing I do suggest is sunscreen, hydration, and a hat. If you go during the day, a lot of the courtside seats are in direct sunlight. Thankfully most of the food and drink activations have some shade, but while you're watching the matches keep in mind it is HOT and SUNNY af. Wear something you can be hot in, because there is nothing worse than being uncomfy in the sun. Parking was pretty easy and a quick walk to the venue. Overall, this is an awesome experience you can most definitely enjoy for an entire day or night. read more

I had a pretty solid experience attending the second Wednesday evening session (3/27) of the Miami Open at its new location. I wasn't sure what to expect, but walked away very pleased! It sucks there's no way to really know who will play when before buying the tickets, but such is the case with tournaments like this. If you really want to see someone special, I'd suggest waiting until the day of to buy tickets (check Stubhub), because I saw some steals. We bought stadium tickets via resale and an orange parking pass online for $25. This was the way to go because it was $40 onsite. The stadium pass got us access to not only the matches in the stadium, but also the grandstand where there were some great games. We sat in section 213 while in the stadium which is in the corner and had a great view! Grandstand seating is a free for all and we were able to easily snag seats there, too. I was impressed by the lawn areas and the food selection. I opted for pasta from the Casa Tua tent which was ok, my husband got a burger from the grill, and we shared a smores cookie from Phenomenom. I thought it was cool how they had a lot of local flavor, but wouldn't say it was the best food I've had (except for the cookie which was dang delicious). The Kiki on the River popup was hopping the entire time we were there! I attended the Sony Open at Key Biscayne one time. Back then, I feel like we paid more to sit higher up and parking was way more of a pain. While it definitely feels different and may get some getting used to for those that were regulars before, I think this was a perfectly suitable replacement. I'm anxious to see what they do with all these courts the rest of the year! I hope they're open to regular players every now and then. read more

My wife and I bought grandstand tickets to watch the Fonseca/ Humbert match. At the last moment the match was moved to another court to which we were denied access. We know that the tournament reserves the right to do so. If that change was of some benefit to scheduling, it was also a disappointment to many fans, and in our opinion unfair- like a broken commitment . read more

Outside of the event, it is total chaos. The extra parking areas, referred to as "yellow zones," are not marked--there are no signs or plans in place. Golf carts trick you into thinking they are part of the event, so you end up paying $10 each or getting dropped off in the middle of nowhere. The shuttles have zero safety precautions and almost collided with another vehicle. There are no organized lines to board the shuttles--people just push their way in. And if you stay until the end, you're left to fend for yourself. read more

This year Miami Open definitely did not lack any star power. It's truly one the of the best events hosted in S. Florida each year. It's an opportunity to see some of the best players in the world. This year, my friends and I purchased the ground Pass which gives you access to all of the outer courts. They've done a phenomenal job with setting up the ground floor. There are definitely a lot of Instagramable picture opportunities. So many vendors and lounge areas to not only watch the match but vibe out to really great music. The food was really pricey, but that's to be expected. I had a really lackluster steak sandwich. I can't even remember the vendor so would not recommend. However, the Santa Margherita Rosé Bar was so cute! The bar was surrounded by flowered walls. They handed out some pretty in pink hand fans. It was a hot day so I was able to get me a nice frose to help cool me down. Besides the food, there were tons of product vendors. Moroccan oil handed out some great sample products as well as La Roche Posay handing out sunscreen. The parking was a bit tricky. We got there around noon and the parking was already completely full. We were able to park at the recreational complex which offered shuttle service. Parking was approximately $40. read more

Hi, if there was a possibility not only I'd not only give it even 1 star because they don't deserve it - but I'd sue them too. Poor facilities and Masters level tennis tournament aside, but also the rudeness of its staff - not all - but A LOT. to the point where 3 GUYS surrounded her like she's some kind of a criminal, and one security GUY grabbed my WIFE for the arm last night and twisted it because she was at a lower level stadium and her ticket was for upper level. Lucky for him, she is not American and does 't know that she has every right to scream and freak out at him. YOUR STADIUM IS CONFUSING, its like a child made it out of Leggo's! Is that the way to treat a women Floridians? I have been in tennis 35 years and never seen such bad conditions in my life, and was ready to just forget all about it until this happened. She is by the way very beautiful, very courteous and pleasant. I posted this photo because its a disgrace that Masters looks like a dump. read more

Miami Open - Tennis Near Me - Miami Gardens, Florida

Absolute most unorganized Tennis tournament ever. I have been to hundreds of tournaments being a former player myself and this year's Miami Open was horrible. The organizers and Ticketmaster should be ashamed of how they handled the inclement weather policies and rain delays that plagued the opening weekend of tournament play. From not having any information about when play would resume (literally ESPN was more on top of it and the "go to" guide) to zero information on the refund policy, it was a major disaster. We traveled from central Florida in time to catch the Friday night match--which we bought our tickets through ticketmaster directly for and paid a small fortune. Checked in to our hotel and consulted the website and phone app to see if there was even going to be any play the entire second half od the day since it was monsooning. We couldn't find ANY info on what the tournament coordinators had decided to do. We then ubered (another small fortune) to the Hard Rock Stadium in the pouring rain and STILL when asked at ALL information areas what the status of play was.... NO ONE KNEW. They all kept sending us somewhere else to ask. It was comical. Let me also say that every major TV station was calling for at least 4-6 inches of rain in the area and all said there was no way there would be any tennis play from 3pm that day on.... I guess no event organizers at the Miami open watched the weather forecasts that day???? Finally around 9pm they said all play had been cancelled. No one could tell us the refund policy--they kept referring to the website or app. On the app and website the inclement rained out ticket refund/exchange policy is confusing at best. I got a headache just trying to decipher it but the gist was that if you bought your tickets through the Miami Open/Ticketmaster website you were fine. The next day we drove back to the stadium for our day matches we had prepaid tickets for and again there were rain delays with no information on if the weather cleared which matches from the previous day or the current Sat. schedule were going to be played or when. Again, thanks ESPN for keeping us up to date. We stayed the entire day when play resumed and then headed to the stadium court for our night match, which again we had court side seats and paid a small fortune for. This is where the dangerous chaos began. Apparently the "catch up" play from the rained out day Friday delayed again the Sat. night matches so when they normally let the spectators in at 7pm, no one was allowed in. They didn't tell us this until we were all huddled (thousands of us) on the round ramps that curve up to the different stadium levels. There was one ONE person for thousands of us telling us to stay to the side and then all of a sudden he just stopped everyone and said we couldn't go in. People were Pissed and it was getting scary. When we finally did get to enter the stadium, THE NIGHT MATCH HAD ALREADY BEGUN AND THEY DIDN'T LET US IN DUE TO THE 3 GAME RULE WHERE THE PLAYERS PLAY THE FIRST 3 GAMES BEFORE YOU CAN GO TO YOUR SEAT. And then...once we were in the stadium waiting to get to our curtsied seats the ushers took too long to usher people in and we had to wait two more intervals before we could finally get to our seats. We literally missed the entire first set. It was unbelievable. To top it all off we never could get answers as to when we would receive a refund for our Friday night tickets and we visited the ticketmaster window on site and were told when we bought out tickets off of the site they weren't "official" ticketmaster tickets so there was no refund. Are you kidding me? We show them out ticketmaster receipt and showed them the email receipts from Ticketmaster to us and they still said we would not be issured a refund. I ended up contacting my credit card company so I'm not worried, but I will never attend the Miami Open again. I understand that a lot of the workers are volunteers but there were just too many bad experiences in a 24 hour period and too much money spent to be able to forgive and forget. read more

Worst tennis I've ever seen. Between ushers not knowing any info to being charged per game and not letting anyone know when that match is starting. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!! read more

You haven't really seen tennis until you've been to a tennis tournament. After 10 days of the tournament and watching the matches i have a new found love for tennis. The atmosphere is amazing! What other sport do you get to see the athletes walking around between matches and practice sessions?! Just great. This is the tournament's last year at Crandon Park. This year was a bit disappointing since Serena Williams and Roger Federer got knocked out of the tournament in their first round. The food was DEFINITELY a hit or miss. Hopefully when they move to Hard Rock Stadium the food gets better. read more
