Delaware North has been selected as the F&B provider for Inter Miami CF’s new home at Miami Freedom Park, marking a major milestone in the development of the highly anticipated new stadium. As part of the intentional efforts to deliver a one-of-a-kind, year-round experience through thoughtful offerings in the venue, Delaware North has been chosen to lead stadium concessions and premium food and beverage services.
Together, Inter Miami CF and Delaware North – a global leader in hospitality and food service with operations spanning stadiums, streetside restaurants, national parks, resorts and casinos – will set the stage for a dynamic, world-class fan experience, providing a variety of dining options for the diverse audiences – from frictionless markets and signature bars in general admission areas to premium, personalised service in exclusive clubs and suites that will be jointly managed by Patina Group, Delaware North’s premium restaurant and catering business.
These experiences will not only be available on game days, but also at additional sporting events, concerts and live entertainment to be hosted at Inter Miami CF’s new 25,000-seat home year-round when it opens in 2026. Fans throughout the venue can look forward to innovative culinary experiences that celebrate the vibrant flavours of Miami while elevating classic stadium favourites.

“Our experience in serving European football, MLS and broader professional sports gives us the unique ability to craft something special for the new Inter Miami CF Stadium. This collaboration is a chance to build a fan experience that truly enhances the energy on the field and makes the Club’s new home a memorable culinary destination for everyone who visits.”
Inter Miami CF’s Sr. Director of Food and Beverage, Laurence McMillon, said:
“As we curate the best food and beverage concepts for the stadium and phase 1 of the entertainment district, we are excited to welcome Delaware North as our F&B provider, marking a defining moment for Inter Miami CF’s new home. Their proven world-class dining and hospitality expertise, which features the perfect blend of Miami-based and national offerings, will help shape an unforgettable experience at our new home.”
With over 100 years of experience in sports hospitality, Delaware North serves as the food and beverage partner for some of the world’s most iconic venues spanning various sports. These stadiums include Wembley Stadium, Emirates Stadium, London Stadium and Pride Park Stadium in the United Kingdom, along with TD Garden in Boston, MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, Lambeau Field in Green Bay, 10 MLB ballparks and seven NHL locations.
The 2026 SVB LIVE Conference & Exhibition – with its focus on elevating the live experience – is being hosted at Everton’s spectacular new Hill Dickinson Stadium on October 1st and 2nd. Delaware North’s Marco Galer-Reick, VP, UK Strategy Enablement, spoke at the 2025 event alongside 20.20 Ltd’s Jon Lee and Costudio Consulting’s Stephen Doherty.
The company is known for tailoring its offerings to each community, creating authentic dining experiences that reflect local culture and flavour. Delaware North’s integration at Inter Miami CF’s new stadium underscores Miami Freedom Park’s commitment to developing relationships that provide a one-of-a-kind food and beverage experience that will be seen throughout the entertainment district.
Miami Freedom Park is being developed as a true hospitality and lifestyle destination – blending dining, entertainment, wellness and retail to create an everyday community hub with an unrivalled matchday experience. The district will pulse with energy across plazas, entertainment corridors and outdoor gathering spaces, offering everything from elevated dining and cocktail bars to casual, family-friendly hangouts that reflect Miami’s vibrant culture. This layered experience – anchored by the stadium but activated year-round – will establish Miami Freedom Park as a new centre of gravity for dining, entertainment and culture in South Florida.
Tenancy will feature a curated mix of experiential attractions, event spaces, museums, restaurants, bars, pubs, fitness providers, as well as apparel and athleisure brands, transforming the district into a destination that draws fans, locals and visitors alike. Whether it’s a pre-match dinner, celebratory drinks, weekend brunch or a seasonal market, Miami Freedom Park will set a new standard for entertainment and cultural programming in Miami.
Miami Freedom Park is slated to open in phases starting in 2026, including the stadium, the park and an inaugural lineup of retailers and attractions. As part of this exciting announcement, Inter Miami CF and Delaware North are looking forward to hosting a food tasting with media members ahead of the opening of the Club’s new home.
Miami Freedom Park
This is a timely development, with Inter Miami CF having reached another major milestone in the construction of its new home, Miami Freedom Park, this week, as club owners Jorge Mas, Jose Mas and David Beckham signed one of the final beams of the stadium canopy.
The signatures were placed beneath the club’s motto, “Freedom To Dream,” inscribed by managing owner Jorge Mas, a Miami native.
The gesture represents the inspiration driving the team and the development of Freedom Park, which aims to set a new standard for Major League Soccer (MLS) stadiums.
The canopy, set to be the largest of its kind in MLS, will cover every seat and the concourse, protecting fans from the elements while maintaining an open-air atmosphere. Construction crews plan to raise the final beams over the next two weeks.
Inter Miami CF’s new home will anchor the largest active real estate development in Miami, spanning 131 acres, Miami Freedom Park. The project is developed by the ownership group of Inter Miami CF and will be a year-round destination for all of Miami and visitors alike, on matchdays and beyond.
The phased development is underway, including over 1 million square feet of retail, dining, entertainment, and office space, in addition to 750 hotel rooms. Miami Freedom Park also includes Miami’s largest new public park in generations, the 58-acre Jorge Mas Canosa Park, and athletic fields for the community.
Construction on Miami Freedom Park – designed by MANICA Architecture and Arquitectonica – began in 2023 and will open in phases commencing in 2026, starting with the stadium, Jorge Mas Canosa Park, youth athletic fields, acres of programmable civic and plaza space that will host fan zones and seasonal celebrations, and the inaugural collection of restaurants, attractions, and retailers.
