Julia & Henry’s Brings Downtown Miami its First Pop-Up Soccer Pitch with the Downtown Cup | Starting May 2
While the World Cup won’t arrive in Miami until 2026, Julia & Henry’s, Downtown Miami’s premier culinary and entertainment destination, is giving fútbol fans an early taste with the launch of the Delta & LATAM Soccer Field, a custom-built, first-of-its-kind pitch in the heart of Flagler Street. The field will host The Downtown Cup, a 5v5 tournament kicking off on Friday, May 2, featuring major prizes from sponsors like Delta, LATAM, Celsius and the Miami Downtown Development Authority – including roundtrip flights to South America and complimentary dinners to Massimo Bottura’s Miami hot spot Torno Subito. Players of all ages can register for the Downtown Cup through the registration form by April 30.
Tournament matches will take place weekdays from 5:30-9:30 p.m. and weekends from 11:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m. Players can get their soccer fix with free play and pickup game options, bookable through the Plei app (weekdays from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and weekends from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 7-10 p.m.) After working up an appetite, players and spectators can head to Julia & Henry’s to refuel at any of its 20-plus culinary concepts – from elevated street food and artisanal pastries to craft cocktails and specialty coffee.
