The line was a bit long but it moved fast once my friend and I realized the cash line was separated. Upon entering you have a food station with freshly made small portion food. I had tuna sashimi, mushroom veggie burger and truffle popcorn. All of it tasted great but my favorite was the tuna drizzled with soy sauce, sesame seeds, and some hard crusted tempura like crackers. So yummy! The rest of the space is filled with wall and live art with people painted in body art posing and being a part of the art themselves. Very unique and not your normal art event. There is a lot of nudity in the art and per the name of this event, you should leave your kids at home! Everything is tasteful which was great. It took my friend and I about 2 hours to look and enjoy. I'm so glad I finally experienced Nude Nite, you should too!!

GREAT TIME attending SOBEWFF 2025 for their Tacos and Tequila weekend evening event from…read more730-1030pm. Very easy to find, especially if staying in the area and are arriving on foot. Food and drinks included with the tickets. On arrival there was plenty of participating booths with tacos and/or Mexican related bites. Bars and cocktails also available. I suggest getting there early to maximize the tastings as well as to beat the crowd a little because as the event went on the lines got drastically longer and the last hour some food booths began closing per lack of inventory. I give kudos to the organizers for the many bins of accessible water bottles for both the MIA heat and to keep the alcoholic drinkers hydrated! Noting for my ladies, that SOBEWFF set up is booths on the beach - so wear the correct foot attire as you will be walking on sand!

The SoBe Seafood Festival is a series of events. I went to the Chef Showdown and Seafood Slam. The…read moreChef Showdown comprised of two chefs competing against each other in Seafood categories, sush as sushi, salmon, tuna, ceviche, etc. I have eaten at some of the restaurants co.peting. I feel like some of the food they had at this event was not their best. The standouts for me were the shrimp ceviche from Suviche and salmon and rice from Temple Street Eatery. These were excellent. Rusty Pelican won the big award. Their dish was tasty. It was ribeye and shrimp I believe. (No sign describing the dish on table) I wanted to try the lobster salad from Catch and Cut but they were about to go on stage for the competition when I went by twice. Other restaurants were just ok. I enjoyed the Hendrick's gin drinks. Blacklane had a nice lounge with champagne. All in all, this event is nice because it is food, drinks and music on the beach at night. It was a nice, breezy evening, so that made it even nicer. But if I break it down on most of the food food and even most of the drinks, it is just ok. I expected real high quality seafood and it just didn't cut it for me. Seafood Slam was during the day and it got hot! This event was pretty similar in terms of quality of food and drinks. Nothing bad but nothing to write home about. I think I preferred the Chef Showdown compared to the Seafood Slam.

The vendors and music stages are depicted on their website making it very easy to know where things are and at what time artists are set to perform. Great vibes, great food, great music, plenty of street fair food and shops to keep you entertained. The artists and vendors who work the booths are always nice and in a great mood. The Carnaval is located in Miracle mile, close to several street parking and parking garages, like we used. I particularly love the location of this festival because its on a fabulous street filled with restaurants on each side of the street. Allowing for more options if you choose you not to eat street food. There are plenty of options like arepas, fresh squeezed juices, pinchos, sandwiches, turkey legs, funnel cakes, Gilbert's bakery, pizza, gelato, and more. We decided to eat lunch at Morton's to break up the day a little from walking, then we continued our day throughout the festival. I did a little shopping at Essence Boutique, which I love to come to when I'm in this area of Coral Gables. I also bought some dips and other trinkets from the festival. I look forward to this festival every year and am so glad I was able to make it this weekend.

It never gets boring in Little Havana and that's what I love about it. There's great food from several different countries: Cuba, Nicaragua, Colunbia, Peru, Argentina just to name a few. There are many tobacco/cigar shops. Knick knack shops for souveniers. Great ice cream shops like Azucar's! Fun vibrant art painted on buildings. Impromptu and scheduled parades and festivals. Spanish being spoken everywhere you go. And the best part is to watch the old-timers playing dominoes in the parking lots/sidewalks. Mass traffic on Calle Ocho (SW 8th) with no where to park so go past it a couple of blocks and park in that area or take Uber or a transit bus. No matter what, you will have fun there!

It first started on the sands off 23 Street and Collins and was held one year in Key Biscayne. There are about 6 different stages, from the main stage where I enjoyed listening to Don Dolla, Armin van Buuren & Tiësto, the Resistance (a little harder more techno, such as Carl Cox and CamelPhat), Ultra Live (more poppy) and the Tulum like Eco Village with live art, string lights and DJ Purple. They also livestream the bigger acts on YouTube for when you're home, after your phone is about to die or my feet remember they're in their late 40s LOL Logistically, take public transit or ride share since Biscayne gets rerouted. Come with plenty of time before your favorite act to deal with traffic and security. There's a great variety of food for sale, including turkey legs! The sound system is AWESOME..it is a proverbial once in a lifetime experience every year you go. My favorite acts were of course: Armin van Buuren, Carl Cox (though I missed my favorite track "Phuture 2000", CamelPhat ("Panic Room" and "Cola") and the Dead Mouse (DeadMau5 ) performed under his new Aliases TestPilot and K5 with another great one, Kaskade. The graphics, the light show were great, as was Swedish House Mafia's closing act. Definitely a must do if you're an electronic music fan!

To use those words, "I love a parade," which I do and have been to many, this is one of the best. It's simple, casual, full of good humor, contains plenty of laughs but best of all attracts what I consider to be one of the most well behaved, mannerly, considerate crowds of any parade I've ever been to. I even spoke to several on duty policemen who told me that compared to the other events they police, this one is a total holiday for them as they doubted that, even with all of those attending, there would even be cause for a single arrest.

From jewelry to crystals to succulents and art, there was something for everyone at the Miami Flea. They also had live music which was super festive and a bar with cocktails. The cocktails were from Mac's pub and super refreshing and tropical. Some of my favorite vendors included Martha of Miami with her Miami AF merchandise, Wagboss and La Succulenta. I left with inspirational jewelry from lucky bee, and a full heart from all the Local love that was going on that day. Aside from the shopping they also have a section for food. I didn't try, but the options were varied and looked delish. Parking can be tricky. There's a few cash lots around but I got lucky with street parking near by. The Miami Flea is a fun spot to support local! Shout out to all the small biz owners following their dreams and making Miami a truly unique place :)

It would be cool if they opened the application up to one-time vendors or pop-ups. I wouldn't really make it your main destination for the day, but just a short stop to somewhere else in downtown or Wynwood. I've only purchased food like coffee, macarons, etc. here. Never saw any stuff I actually wanted to buy. The vintage stuff vendor is pretty cool though. It's great for people watching and chilling because a variety of characters show up.
