Plan the weekend
Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau lists smaller community events we don't track; most arena and stadium tickets are on Ticketmaster; the National Weather Service Miami – South Florida forecast decides beach plans; Miami-Dade Transit (Metrorail, Metromover, buses) avoids event parking; venue bag and parking policies are on the Hard Rock Stadium site. Dates and times are America/New_York and come straight from organizers' listings; we prune anything that disappears from its source.
