The 26th Annual Miami HEAT Family Festival will be held at Dan Paul Plaza at Kaseya Center on Sunday, March 1st. This lively, block-party–style event supports the Miami HEAT Charitable Fund and provides fans the chance to meet HEAT players, coaches, and their families. The immersive event will feature rare auction items, photo opportunities, meet-and-greets, live entertainment, and appearances by HEAT favorites such as Burnie, The Miami HEAT Dancers, and Golden Oldies. Attendees can enjoy free food from over 40 South Florida restaurants, including Skinny Louie, Jrk!, Fatman Hot Dog, Meraki Greek Bistro, The Brownie Lady, Fireman Derek’s, Lutong Filipino Cuisine, Naked Taco, Cake Lounge, Jay’s Steakhouse, and more.
This year, the festival introduces “Battle of the Bites,” a food competition judged by fans. Local restaurants will present their dishes, and attendees will vote using a chip-based system, giving local culinary partners a platform to showcase their flavors to HEAT fans. Votes will be tallied at the end of the Festival to determine the winning restaurant, which will receive a content feature across Miami HEAT social media platforms, as well as HEAT home game tickets, and an in-game, in-Arena feature
Tickets are available starting at under $350. Fans can buy now at HEATFamilyFestival.com or call 786-777-4776.
