Amerant Bank Arena

Sunrise, Florida, United States

Why it matters

Amerant Bank Arena is South Florida’s large suburban counterpoint to downtown Miami. Opened in 1998 beside the Everglades edge in Sunrise, it is home to the Panthers and gives major tours a huge Broward County stop without sending everyone into Miami.

Getting there

Plan on driving to Amerant Bank Arena. The Sunrise site is surrounded by parking and major roads rather than a walkable downtown, so buy parking ahead and note your lot before you go inside. Post-show rideshare can be slower than simply waiting for the first traffic wave to clear.

Bag policy

Amerant Bank Arena's published event details and guest-services page are the final authority for bags. Concert rules can differ from sports or festival setups, so verify the current size limit and prohibited-items list before packing.

Local tips

Plan this as a driving venue. Sawgrass Mills is nearby, but the arena is surrounded by wide roads and parking rather than a walkable downtown. Buy parking ahead, note your lot and section, and do not assume a post-show rideshare will be faster than waiting out the first traffic wave.
