Miami Heat fans will have new places to eat, drink and watch games at Kaseya Center this season, the arena announced as the team prepared for its new campaign.
The Hard Rock Bet Lounge, a more upscale space offering cocktails, is open to Heat Prestige members. Tony Feudo, the arena’s GM of Clubs, said the lounge sits right next to the floor and has a back room overlooking Championship Alley, where guests can watch players arrive and leave the locker room.
Courtside ticket holders also get a new option. The 1988 Club, an elegant bar and restaurant, will feature collaborations with a different local restaurant at each game.
For a quicker bite during play, 601 serves chicken sandwiches, nachos and Philly cheesesteaks. Fans can also buy access to the Bacardi Ocho Lounge through the Heat app, then add it to their tickets from any seat in the building, according to Jose Ferrufino, the arena’s director of clubs.
The changes give fans more choices, from cocktails and sit-down meals to desserts and premium seating.
