Miami city guide: Key information for England World Cup fans

After navigating the altitude in Mexico City, England will now have to overcome the heat and humidity in South Florida when they take on Norway on Saturday, 11 July, in the 2026 World Cup quarter-finals.

For the fans who attended the match at the Estadio Azteca on Sunday night, it is a memory that will live with them for the rest of their lives. Many of these fans will now travel back over to the United States for the match with Norway at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

If you are heading to Miami for the match, you are in for a treat. Here is everything you need to know to ensure the trip is a good one.

How many England fans are going to Miami?

England have only officially been given an allocation of 4,000 tickets for the quarter-final, but there is expected to be far more than that in attendance on Saturday, likewise with Norway fans.

Many England fans will have secured tickets through the general FIFA ballot at the end of 2025, while thousands more will have forked out for tickets via the resale market.

Those looking to buy tickets now, though, are in for a rude awakening. Some category 1 tickets for the match have been listed on FIFA's official resale portal for $8 million this week, as prices for this World Cup reach ludicrous new heights.

Beyond the fans in the stadium, there will be thousands more England fans in Miami without tickets. There is now a sense that the Three Lions could be on the brink of something special, and nobody wants to miss out.

Where will England fans sit at the Hard Rock Stadium

The official England area will be behind one of the goals at the Hard Rock Stadium, with Norway fans occupying the opposite end. Beyond that, it will be a free-for-all in terms of red and white shirts, which should make the stadium look spectacular on the night.

The stadium is home to the Miami Dolphins and has hosted several major sporting events over the years, including the Super Bowl and WrestleMania. As such, there isn't a bad seat in the house, so England fans should enjoy their visit here.

To everyone in Mexico City who made England supporters feel so welcome over the last few days, thank you. What an incredible city you have, and even better people.

For those who travelled from England, this will be remembered as one of the favourite away trips. Thank you to… pic.twitter.com/8ju375ZjOv

How to get to the Hard Rock Stadium: Guide for England fans in Miami

England fans should take full advantage of the free Miami Game Day Express shuttle service, which has been in operation throughout the World Cup. Fans can board a shuttle bus directly to the stadium, with their match ticket acting as their transportation pass.

Services begin four hours before kick-off and run to and from four shuttle hubs around the city. The four shuttle hubs are as follows:

• Dr Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza Metrorail Station – Ideal for supporters staying in Downtown Miami, Brickell or Coconut Grove.
• Golden Glades Intermodal Terminal – Ideal for supporters staying in northern Miami-Dade and Broward County.
• Brightline Aventura Station – The most convenient hub for supporters arriving by Brightline from Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton or West Palm Beach.
• Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino – A useful departure point for supporters staying in Hollywood (not that one) or Miramar who plan to drive to the shuttle.
