About Orange Bowl Stadium
The Orange Bowl Stadium is a historic outdoor venue once located in the Little Havana area of Miami. Opened in 1937 and originally named Burdine Stadium, it became a cornerstone of college football and hosted major events including five Super Bowls. Though the stadium was demolished in 2008 and redeveloped as LoanDepot Park, its legacy lives on in Miami sports culture. This page provides a comprehensive guide to the site, with seating history, parking and transit details, and recommended nearby hotels and restaurants to help you plan a smooth visit.
Whether you’re tracing the stadium’s role in Hurricanes football, the Orange Bowl NCAA game history, or the evolution of Miami’s waterfront sports venues, you’ll find practical information to help you secure your seats, navigate parking, and enjoy the surrounding area. We’ve got you covered with insider tips and credible resources to make your trip easy and enjoyable.
Note: The physical stadium was demolished in 2008 and replaced by LoanDepot Park (home of Miami’s MLB team). The surrounding area remains a hub for sports fans, with historic references, updated transit routes, and nearby lodging and dining options.
