RIDE BRIGHTLINE TO THE DIAMOND WITH THE NEW HOME RUNNER TRAIN!
Miami Marlins and Brightline Announce Multi-Year Partnership Focused on Getting Fans To and From loanDepot park
MIAMI, FL – The Miami Marlins and Brightline, the only provider of modern, eco-friendly, intercity rail in America, announce a multi-year partnership with the MLB debut of the Home Runner train. Brightline’s new Home Runner trains allow Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach fans to skip traffic, delivering an All-Star experience focusing on taking fans to loanDepot park car free and carefree until the final out!
Guests on the Home Runner trains can pregame along the way with onboard drink specials and a Marlins cocktail to honor the team at the Mary Mary full-service bar. For the Giants Series on Friday, June 3 to Sunday, June 5, fans can enjoy in-station activations and giveaways with the Miami Marlins.
Fans can get directly to the game by selecting the Home Runner train at time of purchase on the Brightline website or app. The Home Runner will take guests to the MiamiCentral Station where pregaming will continue on dedicated shuttles that provide transportation directly to loanDepot park - just a mile away.
Exclusively offered on Friday, Saturday, and Sundays, dedicated shuttles to IoanDepot park will depart from the MiamiCentral station 10 minutes after train arrivals. Return shuttles to the train station will be located inside the RideShare Lot (East Lot 1) at IoanDepot park. Shuttles will begin departing two hours after first-pitch and continue until 30 minutes after the final out.
“With the Brightline partnership and the launch of the Home Runner, our fans from Broward and Palm Beach counties can ride in comfort to catch all the action and fun this season,” said David Oxfeld, Marlins Senior Vice President of Sales and Partnerships. “Brightline joins our efforts in delivering a first-class experience for the guests traveling to and from loanDepot park.”
“Miami Marlins fans love getting out to the ballpark to support their team and Brightline makes it easier than ever for South Floridians to catch the game,” said Sue Lucas, Chief Revenue Officer at Brightline. “With the new Home Runner train, fans will never miss the action and can ride to and from the game in comfort and style.”
Fans should schedule trips to loanDepot park by visiting Brightline.com and Marlins.com to ensure they don’t miss a pitch. #MakeItMiami
