Miami is a city made up of dog lovers, no doubt about it. And while proud pet owners can be seen walking all over the city, some businesses have certain rules and regulations about where our four-legged friends can go. One of those is the ballpark — although they have an exception!
If you and your dog are inseparable, there are several Miami Marlins games coming up that make for the perfect dog-friendly hangouts. Known as “Bark at the Park,” loanDepot park offers the rare chance of welcoming you and your furry friend to not miss a single piece of the action on the field.
Of course, you’ll not only have to purchase your own (human) ticket, but one for your dog as well. The seats are available in the Comunidad 305 B / Bullpen Reserved B on the promenade level, sections 34-40. Concessions will be open on in this designated area for fans and their pooches.
