Miami Heat Introduce The 1988 Club for 2026–27 Courtside Members
The new Kaseya Center retreat is reserved for Heat Elite Reserve members and features chef Jeremy Ford’s seasonal dining program.
The Miami Heat have added The 1988 Club to their 2026–27 premium membership lineup at Kaseya Center. The new courtside retreat is reserved for Heat Elite Reserve members, the team’s highest-tier membership for floor-seat holders.
The club takes its name from the franchise’s inaugural year and draws on South Florida in its design. The Heat describe an old-Florida, supper-club setting with organic textures, softened lighting and a lounge steps from Pat Riley Court.
Dining and member access
Jeremy Ford, the Michelin-starred chef behind the club’s culinary program, is developing a seasonal coastal, farm-to-table menu. The team also plans to feature guest chefs during the season.
Reserve membership includes club access, in-seat service, grab-and-go offerings, on-site parking, a VIP entrance, private restrooms, exclusive events, a dedicated representative and a 20% retail discount. The Heat’s 2026–27 pricing map lists Reserve seats beginning at $947 per seat per game, excluding tax, with pricing varying by location.
The 1988 Club is one of several new membership experiences in the Heat’s 2026–27 rollout. The team is also introducing The Arc lounge for Prestige members and redesigning the arena’s North and South Lounges for Signature members.
