With the FIFA World Cup games officially underway, more than 250 of Miami’s power brokers faced off in support of the Special Olympics as PARAMOUNT Miami Worldcenter played host to a World Cup kick off bash on Wednesday, June 13.
Event-goers enjoyed cocktails and canapés from around the world, each representing a different participating country in the games. From Moscow Mules to Peruvian ceviche, Spanish croquettes and French macaroons, guests were transported around the globe while vying for their chance to score a winning goal. Dozens of brokers faced off against the pro goalie and players on-hand as they took their shot at kicking a goal into the net as PARAMOUNT Miami Worldcenter offered to make a donation to the Special Olympics for each winning goal.
Developer Dan Kodsi gets into the action.
As Miami’s only condominium with its own soccer field, PARAMOUNT is kicking up the amenity stakes and counts at least six professional soccer players who have already purchased residences in the tower. The three known soccer pros play for the Turkish, Colombian, and Cameroon national teams.
“As Miami is home to so many soccer stars and fans, we’re excited to kick off the World Cup action at PARAMOUNT Miami Worldcenter,” said developer Dan Kodsi. “With Major League Soccer coming soon to Miami and now in the running to host the games in 2026, the city’s interest in soccer is at an all-time high.”
“We have buyers from each of the countries participating in the World Cup and we’re thrilled to celebrate the start of the games,” added Peggy Fucci, CEO of OneWorld Properties, the exclusive sales brokerage for the project.
