Where Are They Building the Hard Rock Casino?

In May 2019, the Hard Rock International group was approved by the Florida Legislature to build a new casino in Miami. The new casino will be located on the site of the former Miami Herald building, which is currently being demolished.

Hard Rock has not yet announced when construction will begin or when the casino will open.

Hard Rock was founded in 1971 and is headquartered in Orlando, Florida. The company owns and operates casinos and hotels around the world, including in Las Vegas, Biloxi, and Hollywood, Florida.

Hard Rock has been eyeing a return to Miami for many years and was one of several groUPS that bid on the casino license in 2014. However, the Seminole Tribe, which owns the Hard Rock brand and operates most of its casinos, was not selected as the winning bidder.

PRO TIP:When looking for the new Hard Rock Casino, research the local area. Ask around to find out where the casino is located and what type of development is happening in the area. Additionally, be on the lookout for any new construction or permits related to the casino.

The new casino will be built on a five-acre parcel of land that is adjacent to AmericanAirlines Arena, home of the NBA’s Miami Heat. The site is also near Bayfront Park and PortMiami.

Hard Rock International has not yet released any renderings of what the new casino will look like.

In recent years, several new casinos have been built in Florida, including in Tallahassee, Tampa, and Hollywood. The new Miami casino will be Hard Rock’s first property in South Florida since it sold its Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood to the Seminole Tribe in 2007.

The new casino is being built on the site of the former Miami Herald building (pictured above), which is currently being demolished. Hard Rock has not yet announced when construction will begin or when the casino will open.
