There’s no question: Record-breaking Lionel Messi is the main draw for most fans at Nu Stadium, the recently opened home of Inter Miami at Miami Freedom Park. But if you’re looking for another reason to check out the still-developing premises, the home team’s theme and group nights come with extras: merch, interactive fan zones, and even Pub Sub samples.
Among this season’s most anticipated theme nights are several heritage celebrations, a Publix takeover, and a fan appreciation night during the season’s closer against Charlotte FC. Inter Miami says additional group nights are coming, including more heritage celebrations (Jewish, Venezuelan, Caribbean, and others), but here’s what’s on the football club’s special event calendar for now.
May 17: Japanese Heritage Group Night/Feed Your Fandom Night
The first Heritage Night of the 2026 season honors Japanese culture, with ticket holders receiving an exclusive hachimaki (headband) designed by South Florida–based artist Kisen. The face-off against the Portland Timbers also falls on Feed Your Fandom Night, presented by Publix. The first 10,000 fans get a limited-edition co-branded t-shirt courtesy of the Florida grocer, and 1,000 Pub Sub samples will be distributed at the Publix Terrace before the game. Colombian Latin Grammy winner Mike Bahía and Venezuelan singer Corina Smith will also perform at the Modelo After Party at The Terraces. ticketmaster.com.
May 24: Ergo Next Insurance Takeover Night at Nu Stadium
Details are scant on perks and activations for Inter Miami’s game against the Philadelphia Union, but Ergo Next has a multi-year partnership agreement with our home team — you might have seen players sporting the brand’s logo during training — and interactive stadium fan-zone activations are part of the deal. ticketmaster.com.
May 24, August 1, October 10: Youth Fútbol Night
The stadium’s Group Night programming for Inter Miami’s May 24 game against the Philadelphia Union includes the Dreams Cup, a four-day Memorial Day Weekend youth soccer tournament presented by Lowe’s.

July 22: Colombian Heritage Night/South Florida Networking Night
