Bring Back Marine Stadium
VOTE YES TO BRING MIAMI MARINE STADIUM BACK TO LIFE!       
Let's Bring Back Marine Stadium.

The concerts. The boat races. The fireworks. The crowds on the water.

After Hurricane Andrew in 1992, Miami Marine Stadium never opened its doors again. Miami lost more than a building. We lost a place where generations came together on the water to watch boat races, concerts, fireworks, and unforgettable nights under the open sky. For more than 30 years, this historic landmark has sat silent on our shoreline. But it doesn't have to stay that way. The City of Miami is finally moving forward with a plan to restore Miami Marine Stadium and bring it back to life. Now, we must stand behind it. Together, we can bring back a place that helped define Miami and make sure the next generation gets to experience it too.
