MIAMI VIKES – Minnesota Vikings Fan Club of South Florida is one of the premier NFL fan communities in the Sunshine State and proudly one of the largest organized Minnesota Vikings fan clubs outside the State of Minnesota. Founded in 2009, our group brings together passionate Vikings fans who now call South Florida home, along with snowbirds, former Minnesotans, football enthusiasts, and loyal supporters of the Purple and Gold from across the country.
Our mission is simple: to create a fun, welcoming, and energetic gathering place where Vikings fans can enjoy every touchdown, every rivalry game, and every unforgettable NFL Sunday together in true South Florida style. Whether you are a lifelong fan who remembers the days of Fran Tarkenton and the Purple People Eaters or a newer supporter following today’s generation of Vikings stars, you will find camaraderie, friendship, and football excitement within our organization.
We gather at the beautiful Ocean Manor Resort in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, located directly on the beach along the famous Galt Ocean Mile. Assuming there are no major resort events taking place, MIAMI VIKES members and guests enjoy access to our designated Vikings viewing hut right on the sand; a one-of-a-kind game day atmosphere where palm trees, ocean breezes, cold drinks, and Minnesota football come together. It is a unique South Florida football experience unlike anything most fan clubs can offer.
Members and visitors enjoy a beautiful oceanfront setting, friendly and welcoming fans, free parking, food and drink options nearby, and hotel accommodations available for those who want to turn game day into a weekend getaway. Many friendships, business relationships, and memorable celebrations have been formed through the MIAMI VIKES community over the years.
Beyond football, MIAMI VIKES represents fellowship, loyalty, entertainment, and a shared love for Vikings culture. We encourage fans to post game discussions, photos, tailgate memories, travel stories, Vikings memorabilia, classic moments from team history, and information about local South Florida events.
Whether you live in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Palm Beach, Naples, or are simply visiting South Florida during football season, you are invited to join us for an unforgettable Vikings game day experience under the Florida sun.
