The American Airlines Arena is a sports and entertainment arena located in Downtown Miami, Florida along Biscayne Bay. It was constructed as a replacement for the Miami Arena and was designed by the architecture firms Arquitectonica and 360 Architecture. It is home to the Miami Heat of the National Basketball Association.

The Women's National Basketball Association team Miami Sol played at the arena from the team's birth in 2000 until the team's folding in 2002.

American Airlines maintains the American Airlines Arena Travel Center at the venue.

The American Airlines Arena is served by the Miami Metrorail at Government Center Station and Historic Overtown/Lyric Theatre Station and directly by the Metromover's Freedom Tower Station and Park West Station.
