Real Madrid Confidencial FIFA shows the luxurious box to watch the World Cup, this is what it's like and it costs nearly €70,000.
The United States takes sports events to the next level, and the Club World Cup features a VIP service
The Club World Cup in the United States not only offers a spectacle on the field. It does so off the field as well, where top-level has taken center stage. One of the most exclusive spaces is The 72 Club, the VIP box at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium.
This area is designed for those who want to experience soccer differently. It allows access to the stadium up to three hours before the match and to stay more than an hour after the end. It includes gourmet food service (sushi, meats, pasta, vegetables, and live cooking), alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and a close-to-the-field experience.
The seats are located just a few yards (meters) from the field. Guests can even walk along the sideline before kickoff to take photos. Seeing stars like Mbappé or Vinicius up close comes at a price: a single ticket can cost up to 900 euros, and a full box is around 65,000 euros.
A box full of stars
The tournament's first match, between Inter Miami and Al Ahly, was the debut of this box. Football legends such as Ronaldo Nazario, Hristo Stoichkov, Baggio, and Wenger were there. Gianni Infantino, FIFA president, and David Beckham, owner and president of the Miami team, also attended, visibly nervous during the final minutes of the match.
During halftime and after the match, attendees took the opportunity to take photos with the former footballers present. All while enjoying personalized attention and one of the most exclusive services ever seen at a FIFA tournament.
Suffocating weather and careful details
The atmosphere was hot. At match time, temperatures reached 82°F (28°C) and 75% humidity in Miami. For this reason, the organizers handed out cardboard fans to ease the heat a bit, especially in uncovered areas.
After the match, the box's chefs prepared 150 pizzas for the players of both teams and their families. This detail shows the level of attention and care in every aspect of the event.
That same heat and level of demand is what Real Madrid will find in its debut against Al Hilal, also at Hard Rock Stadium. A club tournament... but with a World Cup flavor.
