The Battle of Florida returns to Amerant Bank Arena and Grails Miami has it on the main screens. Tampa Bay makes the short trip across the state into Sunrise, roughly 45 minutes north of Wynwood, which makes this one of the few NHL nights where both fanbases live in the same metro area. Saturday evening puck drop, an Atlantic Division rivalry with real standings weight, and a room that turns over to hockey for three full periods.

These two franchises share a state, a division, and a stretch of postseason history that turned an in-state curiosity into one of the sport’s genuine grudges. Both sit in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference, so every meeting moves the table in a division that gives nothing away cheaply. Amerant Bank Arena has hosted some of the loudest nights South Florida hockey has produced, and the day-after-Christmas slot puts this rivalry in front of a packed building and a holiday-week audience.

Game Details

Saturday, December 26, 2026. Puck drop 6:00 PM ET. NHL Regular Season. Amerant Bank Arena, Sunrise, FL. Meeting point: Grails Miami, Wynwood.

La Batalla de Florida regresa al Amerant Bank Arena y Grails Miami lo tiene en las pantallas principales. Tampa Bay cruza el estado hacia Sunrise, a unos 45 minutos al norte de Wynwood, lo que hace de esta una de las pocas noches de NHL donde las dos aficiones viven en la misma zona. Inicio sábado por la tarde, una rivalidad de la División Atlántico con peso en la tabla y una sala dedicada al hockey por tres periodos completos.

Estas dos franquicias comparten estado, división y una historia de postemporada que convirtió una curiosidad local en una de las rivalidades más reales del deporte. Ambas pertenecen a la División Atlántico de la Conferencia Este, así que cada encuentro mueve la tabla en una división que no regala nada. El Amerant Bank Arena ha vivido algunas de las noches más ruidosas del hockey del sur de Florida, y el horario del día después de Navidad pone esta rivalidad frente a un estadio lleno.

The Grails Experience

What makes Grails different

Sneaker-themed bar interior at Grails Miami with rare sneakers on display

The World’s First Sneaker-Themed Restaurant & Bar

Hand-restored, well-known sneaker grails line our walls, collected from collaborations and drops throughout the last two decades. Our indoor lounge feels less like a sports bar and more like a sneakerhead’s dream living room, with red booths, ambient lighting, and a custom sneaker bar centerpiece.

Whether you’re a hypebeast, a casual collector, or just here for the wings, the indoor lounge is a vibe, and unlike any other sports bar in Miami.

The Covered “Miami Vice” Patio & The Yard

Spacious. Vibrant. Pure Miami. The covered Miami Vice patio seats up to 120 across multiple table configurations and has its own patio bar, with TVs angled for visibility from every seat. The Yard sits adjacent under a giant tent with a projector screen for the major game. Hookah service runs all evening on the patio.

The color palette pulls straight from Miami Vice: pinks, teals, neon accents. The patio walls flow with rotating mural work that fits Wynwood’s art-district vibe.

The Famous “Sneaker Cocktail”

Yes, you really do drink it from a Jordan-inspired sneaker. The Grails sneaker cocktail is our most-photographed creation, equal parts conversation piece and craft cocktail. It’s been featured in local press, racked up millions of Instagram impressions, and is now a Wynwood rite of passage.

Pair it with shareable dishes from the full menu or post up at the bar with a flight of hyper-local beer. There’s no other drink experience like it in Miami.

Not Your “Typical” Sports Bar

Award-winning craft cocktails. Hand-crafted shareable dishes. A bartender who actually remembers your name. Hyper-local beer on tap. 75+ TVs, two full bars, and three distinct seating areas, including a Wynwood-art-district patio. Group tables for 4 to 40+. Hookah on the patio. DJ-curated music.

This isn’t beer-and-wings-on-a-flat-screen. This is the Grails Experience. It’s why we’re consistently rated Miami’s #1 sports bar.

Rails Sports Bar was the highlight of our whole trip to Miami. Great atmosphere, plenty of screens, and the kind of energy you want from a sports bar. But what really made the night was our waitress, Ciara. She was kind, attentive, and so good at her job. She kept everything running smoothly and made us feel welcome from the start.not to mention Booker T. If you're in Miami, this is the place to go. Ask for Ciara or Booker T

We had such a great experience, and a huge part of that was our server, Austin! He was genuinely one of the best servers I’ve had in a long time. He was incredibly attentive super kind, personable, and so easy to talk to. He checked in at all the right times, made sure we had everything we needed, and just had such a great energy throughout the entire experience. It’s rare to have a server who makes you feel like they actually care that you’re having a good time, and Austin absolutely did. He made us feel so welcome and turned an already fun outing into an even better one. Truly 12/10 service. I’ll absolutely be back — especially to watch sports — and will definitely be asking for Austin again!
