Amerant Bank Arena Events

When the Florida Panthers first joined the NHL as an expansion team in 1993, the new hockey team initially shared an arena with the NBA’s Miami Heat. In 1998, they elected to go their own way, moving into the newly constructed Amerant Bank Arena in the Miami suburb of Sunrise. While the Panthers have struggled for long stretches during their three decades in the NHL, the team has twice made it within a step of ultimate glory in the Stanley Cup Finals, losing to the Colorado Avalanche in four games in 1996 while still in their old venue and the Vegas Golden Knights in five in 2023 in front of an anxious but hopeful crowd at Amerant Bank Arena. Hopes are high heading into 2023-24 that this could be the year when the Stanley Cup at last comes to south Florida. The food at Amerant Bank Arena is definitely a high point, with everything from barbecue to carved turkey sandwiches to Cuban dishes and great local craft beer. Panthers and event merchandise is available at the shops and kiosks around the venue.
