MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Millions of fans are expected to travel to Miami for the World Cup. With that kind of crowd, getting to and from the stadium is a big concern.
It ran about $30 for a rideshare to get to Hard Rock Stadium, dubbed “Miami Stadium” for the World Cup.
However, shuttle buses are free to verified ticket holders, and Local 10 News got to check them out on Sunday.
Local 10 News found hundreds at the Golden Glades Transit Station waiting for free shuttle service to the stadium, provided by Miami-Dade County.
“First of all, the traffic, then the money that you have to pay,” rider Vera Brito said. “So we took the train from West Palm here and then the shuttle.”
With expensive rideshares, the shuttle is an option many are excited for. Here is how it works: verified ticket holders show their QR code to staff and can board shuttles to and from the stadium.
Local 10 News hitched a ride to see it for ourselves. Onboard, we spoke with John Barrett, who is in town from Pittsburgh with his family celebrating Father’s Day.
He said when they found the shuttle option, they were all in.
“We’ve heard about it through the website from FIFA, and this was the best opportunity for us close to our hotel,” Barrett said.
It was a quick, smooth ride. There are several hubs available for fans: MLK Plaza Metrorail Station, Golden Glades, the Aventura Brightline station, and the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood.
Some locations even offer onsite parking.
