UM Athletics announced the plan for stadium capacity at Hard Rock Stadium for Miami Hurricane football games this fall. A maximum of 13,000 fans will be allowed to attend the home opener on Thursday, September 10 against UAB.
This announcement came just a few hours after Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez and the Miami Dolphins announced that Hard Rock Stadium can host as many as 13,000 fans for Miami Dolphins and Hurricanes games for the upcoming 2020 season. This comes as the number of new COVID-19 cases in South Florida declines and safety measures at the Miami Gardens venue continue to take shape.
