Miami’s vibrant Fourth of July celebrations get an extra layer of meaning this year as the Miami Marlins host their annual Military Appreciation Night at loanDepot park. Set against the backdrop of America’s birthday, this heartfelt tribute to our servicemen and women blends America’s favorite pastime with the kind of pageantry only Miami can offer.
On Thursday, July 4, the Marlins take on the Milwaukee Brewers at 7:10 PM, and the atmosphere promises to be electric. From the ceremonial first pitch to the final out, the evening is designed to honor active duty military members, veterans, and their families. Specially priced tickets are available for those who serve or have served, making it easier for families to spend the holiday together in a setting that’s both festive and full of gratitude.
For those who secured their tickets early, the package included an exclusive Marlins Military Appreciation jersey—a limited-edition collectible that has since sold out. Fans purchasing tickets after June 24 will receive a commemorative Military Appreciation challenge coin, a keepsake just as meaningful, designed to reflect the pride and honor of the evening.
The experience doesn’t end when the game does. As the last pitch is thrown, guests are invited to stay in their seats and turn their eyes to the Miami sky. A postgame fireworks show will light up the night in spectacular fashion, offering a moment of awe and reflection at the end of a day filled with pride, community, and celebration.
Military Appreciation Night is more than just a baseball game—it’s a chance to gather, honor service, and enjoy an evening of all-American joy in one of the country’s most dynamic cities. Whether you’re a lifelong Marlins fan or simply looking for a memorable way to celebrate the Fourth, this event promises a meaningful mix of tradition and entertainment.
Tickets are limited and subject to change, so early booking is encouraged. For more details and to reserve your seat, visit the official Marlins website.
This July 4, celebrate under the roof of loanDepot park—and under the stars—with the sights, sounds, and spirit of a truly Miami Fourth of July.
