Where to celebrate the 2024 Copa America in Miami? A grand football party, (highlighting the Albiceleste, a revolutionary concept that is much more than a Fan Zone)
Where will the matches take place?

Where to go to enjoy football culture and the spirit of the Copa America?
Bayside Marketplace:
Albiceleste, the House of football
AFA revolutionizes Miami with the Albiceleste Fanzone (The House of Football), where the exhibition of the iconic Argentine cups and a special collection of memorabilia will be presented, accessible to the public in the city of sun.
This space, which will evolve over time, aims to ignite Argentine passion in all kinds of audiences. The essence of this place does not lie in technology, but in providing a natural environment where Argentine passion is experienced authentically. Memorabilia elements and playful games are integrated harmoniously, creating a welcoming atmosphere leading up to the events.

This space, which will grow in experiences over time, has a very special goal, to bring Argentine passion to all audiences. The focus of the place is not centralized in a space. Therefore, this venue stands as the sanctuary of football, bearing a name that says it all: the Albiceleste. This space, which features various thematic rooms, memorabilia exhibitions, cups on display, press conference areas, and even screens to enjoy the matches, stands as a warm meeting point where sponsors, media, athletes, and fans come together in an atmosphere charged with excitement.
Undoubtedly, this project will continue to grow, especially considering that Miami and the United States will host not only the Copa America, but also the FIFA Club World Cup in 2025 and the FIFA World Cup in 2026.
The disruptive development that AFA is carrying out:
With this first step, Albiceleste emerges as an innovative project, with the expansion of its brand, enriching experiences, innovative products, and captivating content already being a reality. In a world where brand dynamics are increasingly physical-digital (where added value focuses on experiences both online and offline) and in the extension of differentiated products, AFA positions itself as a leader in football associations, with a clear vision to make Miami the strategic epicenter of football in the coming years, enhancing this sport like never before through the fusion of Latin and Anglo-American cultures.
