Guide 02 · Getting there
Getting to the Miami Autodrome
Train, rideshare, parking and taxis, from the organizer's own transport pages.
Quick answer
The organizer's main route to the Miami Grand Prix is Brightline to Aventura station, then a free shuttle that leaves 10 minutes after each train. Rideshare drops off at off-site lots by zone (for example Lot 70 in Hollywood for The Beach and East Campus), and the organizer discourages it because of long waits and surge pricing. 2027 gate times are not out. In 2026, gates opened at 11:30 Friday, 10:00 Saturday and 8:00 Sunday.1,2
