Inter Miami to debut Miami Freedom Park in 2026 home opener vs. Austin FC on April 4th

At long last Inter Miami fans, the wait is almost over!

After almost three years of construction, Inter Miami will officially open the doors to their new stadium, Miami Freedom Park, on April 4th, 2026, where they will host Western Conference foes, Austin FC.

On November 20th, Major League Soccer released its full 2026 schedule, which sees Inter Miami open the year with a five-game road trip, starting away with LAFC on February 21st

The Herons will subsequently play Orlando City on March 1st, DC United on the 7th, Charlotte FC on the 14th, before wrapping up their East Coast-trotting trip against NYCFC on March 22nd. Other marquee match-ups next year include playing away at FC Cincinnati on May 13th, the Columbus Crew at home on August 1st, and taking on San Diego FC for the first time on September 20th.

Built aesthetically next to Miami International Airport, Miami Freedom Park will be a 131-acre sports/entertainment/business development that will change the landscape of Miami's skyline.

On top of the various experiences the area will offer, the main sticking point for Miami's soccer fans will be the stadium.

Inter Miami has been playing at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale since the team's inception in 2020. With Miami Freedom Park on the horizon, it truly is the end of an era for the Herons in a stadium that has seen a myriad of highs and lows.
