The greatest spectacle in American sports returns to South Florida as Miami makes final preparations to host Super Bowl XLI on February 4, 2007, when the top teams from the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American (AFC) fight for the National Championship Championship of the American Football League (NFL). More than 125,000 people are expected to descend on Miami for Super Bowl XLI and just as Super Bowl tickets are a rare commodity these days, hotel rooms in the Miami area have been filling up fast and many of the major online hotel providers are already running out of inventory.
Approximately 90,000 hotel rooms are available throughout South Florida, from Miami to West Palm Beach. However, the NFL has already reserved approximately one in five hotel rooms in South Florida to accommodate its staff and sponsors, as well as the media, for Super Bowl XLI. Additionally, many Miami hotels have enforced a 3-4 night minimum stay during Super Bowl XLI week (and at least one Miami luxury hotel has enforced a seven-night minimum!). Some hotels have also doubled, and in some cases tripled, their normal room rates for guests during the week of Super Bowl XLI.
Location is definitely a key consideration when looking for the right hotel to book while in Miami for Super Bowl XLI. The Super Bowl itself will take place at Dolphin Stadium (the Miami Dolphins’ home field) in Miami Gardens, which is located 16 miles northwest of downtown Miami. Therefore, Bal Harbour, Coconut Grove, Miami Beach (including bustling South Beach), Downtown Miami, and other places in the Miami area provide easy access to Super Bowl XLI, while also offering a wealth of recreational opportunities during the season. your stay.
Super Bowl XLI will be the ninth Super Bowl hosted in Miami since 1968 and the fourth to be played at the 75,000-seat Dolphin Stadium. Annually, the nation’s highest-rated television show, Super Bowl XLI, will be televised on CBS. Last year’s broadcast was watched by more than 141 million viewers. Pregame activities kick off at Dolphin Stadium at 5:40 pm ET with Prince set to perform during the Pepsi Super Bowl XLI Halftime Show. The Super Bowl returns to South Florida in 2010.
