Last updated: 3/20/2026

Located in the suburb of Sunrise, Amerant Bank Arena is primarily accessible by car due to extremely limited public transit options. For the most convenient trip, book lodging in nearby Plantation or Fort Lauderdale. Consider flying into Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) for a smoother arrival experience than the more crowded Miami International Airport.
