Hard Rock Stadium Copa America Final Ticket Settlement

A $14 million class action settlement has been reached over the chaotic July 14, 2024 Copa América Final between Argentina and Colombia at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. The match was delayed 82 minutes when ticketless fans stormed security barriers, causing a lockdown that left thousands of valid ticket holders unable to enter or denied access to their seats. Affected ticket holders may receive up to $2,000 per ticket. File your claim by August 11, 2026.

What Is This Case About?

The lawsuit, Nobel, et al. v. South Florida Stadium LLC, et al., filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida, alleges that Hard Rock Stadium, CONMEBOL, CONCACAF, and BEST Crowd Management failed to maintain adequate security at the Copa América Final. When ticketless fans stormed the barriers, stadium management locked down the venue, leaving thousands of legitimate ticket holders stranded outside or unable to access their assigned seats, concessions, and merchandise areas.

Who Is Eligible?

Valid ticket holders to the July 14, 2024 Copa América Final who were either:

  • Denied Entry: Could not enter the stadium at all due to the crowd/security failures
  • Denied Full Access: Entered the stadium but were denied use of their seats, concessions, or merchandise

How Much Can You Receive?

  • Denied Entry class: Up to $2,000 per ticket (including up to $300 in travel expense reimbursement, combined not to exceed $2,000)
  • Denied Full Access class: Up to $100 per ticket

Required documentation includes proof of identity, proof of ticket purchase, a timestamped photo from the event, and a sworn statement describing what happened.
