It's the best part of every week—the weekend, Miami!—and we're back with brand new suggestions for making the most of your days off. Sure, we'd appreciate slightly cooler temperatures by now, but Miami's pumpkin patch season is officially underway and starting this weekend, we'll be donning our freakiest costumes at the many epic Halloween events happening around town. Aside from all the spooky happenings, highlights this weekend include a Little Prince-inspired immersive experience inside a giant dome, fresh fall theater and a handful of curated farm and vintage markets. So whether it’s a chill activity you’re after (could be that the Miami spas are calling your name) or a jam-packed schedule to get back into, these are the best things to do in Miami this weekend.

Whether you’re visiting Miami for the holiday or a local looking to escape the chaos of cooking at home for a change, this city is filled with delicious options for celebrating Thanksgiving in style. For 2023, many of Miami’s best restaurants have gone all out for the food-centric kick-off to the holiday season, serving up a variety of prix-fixe meals, themed dishes and festive cocktails that require zero clean-up and little to no effort (aside from keeping your pants button from popping open). As much as we love grandma’s mashed potatoes or look forward to dad’s smoked turkey each year, let’s give the family chef something else to be thankful for: Thanksgiving dinner reservations. Here’s where to find the best Thanksgiving dinners in Miami—and a few great lunches and brunches, too. RECOMMENDED: The best bagels in Miami, from old-school delis to new classics

South Beach is a lot of things, and one of them is undeniably touristy. This is for good reason: The oceanfront neighborhood is home to some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, renowned nightlife, an abundance of shopping and internationally recognized cultural institutions (ever heard of Art Basel Miami Beach?). For a lot of people, Miami is synonymous with South Beach. But just because it’s teeming with tourists year-round doesn’t mean South Beach is all overpriced fishbowl drinks, untz-untz nightclubs and souvenir shops filled with tchotchkes. If anything’s a testament to this fact it’s the many worthwhile watering holes that line South Beach’s pastel-hued streets. Whether you’re in the mood for a dimly lit cocktail lounge, a bustling rooftop or an old-school, seedy dive, you can find it in South Beach. Skip the tourist traps with our expert-vetted guide to the best South Beach bars right now.  RECOMMENDED: Full guide to South Beach, Miami

It’s that time again. Every year, we ask thousands of city-dwellers to tell us the coolest spots in their cities. What are the places locals love and visitors flock to? Where are the exciting new openings across food, drink and culture? Where are people going out, hanging out and having fun? For the sixth year running, the results are in. Over 12,000 people had their say in this year’s shortlist, naming the neighbourhoods in their hometowns where everyone wants to be right now. Then, we narrowed down the selection with the insight and expertise of city editors and local experts who know their cities better than anyone else. To create and rank the final list, we considered factors including community and social ventures, access to open and green space, and thriving street life. In 2023, our neighbourhoods are more global than ever before. The rise and rise in post-pandemic digital nomadism has led to an explosion of brand-new community spaces, multi-purpose culture centres and more cafés than we can count on two hands. But while most of these neighbourhoods have experienced a transformation over recent years, they remain resolutely local at heart. Slick new developments and cool cafés might bring in new crowds, but neighbourhood stalwarts – from old pubs to family greengrocers – keep it real.  The world’s coolest neighbourhoods this year are, therefore, places with big personalities. Each area’s diversity is reflected in its food, culture and festivals. Community is key: local

Though we freaks are out year-round in Miami, there’s no eve like Hallow’s Eve to trick ourselves out and treat ourselves to a good time. Halloween falls on a Tuesday this year, which means you’re more likely to celebrate “Halloweek.” During the day, you might pop into your local pumpkin patch, check out the haunted real estate around town or test your reflexes at a good old-fashioned haunted house in Miami. If you’ve landed on this page, however, you’re probably looking to party well beyond the witching hour. And for that, we’ve combed through all the madness to bring you this roundup of the very best Halloween parties in Miami.   RECOMMENDED: Full guide to Halloween in Miami

The vino movement has taken a minute to catch on in our party-loving city—most people immediately jump to Miami rooftop bars and South Beach clubs rather than a quiet night lingering over an excellent glass of Brunello. Yet here we are with a fresh spate of natural wine bars and cozy sommelier-led spots plus some great watering holes that have stepped up their game in the wine department. You'll also find plenty of spots doubling as retail wine shops, so you can stock up for later, or keep the festivities going back at home.

Here are the best restaurants to enjoy in Coral Gables right now, from neighborhood stalwarts to entirely fresh concepts. RECOMMENDED: The best things to do in Coral Gables

Bookstores, flower shops, vintage boutiques, farmers’ markets—these are the romanticized businesses we love to frequent, and local wine shops top them all in our book. As our citywide palates have expanded, so too have our options of where to shop for wine in Miami, and there’s no better way to explore different varietals, regions and vintages than alongside a knowledgeable store owner or sommelier.  Many of these vino boutiques have withstood the test of time, like Wolfe’s in the Gables and gas station gem El Carajo. Others opened more recently, helping us widen our racks to include organic and natural wines, New World blends and luxurious bottles from the most exclusive vintners. Even better, plenty of the wine shops on our list also double as chic Miami wine bars. If you’re looking to enjoy a glass at home, add to your collection or purchase a nice gift, these are the best wine shops in Miami for reds, whites, bubbles and everything in between.

November in Miami is really a sweet spot. The leaves don’t change (not like they do up north, anyway), nor do the daily temperatures really drop (read: we’re all still sunning our bums on Miami beaches), but the city does take on a decidedly more celebratory spirit as we sprint toward the holidays. By now, the city is embracing all things fall, making the obligatory pilgrimages to pumpkin patches across Miami and getting hyped for the festive season thanks to the many Christmas lights in Miami going up this month. We’ve only just skimmed the surface. Below, peruse our running list of November events in Miami that should absolutely be in your calendar. RECOMMENDED: Miami events calendar

October 2023: Can you feel it? Between the daily rain showers, there's a new breeze in the air signaling the beginning of fall in Miami. With the change of season comes a barrage of fun things to do around town this October, from music and food festivals to pumpkin patches, haunted houses and all manner of festive Halloween events. Below, check out all of our picks for the best things to do in Miami right now.  Locals and tourists can agree that the best things to do in Miami extend beyond lounging on the sand—though it goes without saying that spending some time on the best Miami beaches is fundamental to life in the 305.

Before anyone moves to Miami, they have certain ideas about what a Miamian is really like. We all know the clichés—partying all the time, going to the beach every day, consuming tons of Cuban coffee. Of course, there are also the cringe-y behaviors we’ve all seen Miamians doing that newcomers somehow think they’ll be immune from. But once a transplant picks up the rules of Miami, they change. They become a product of this oppressively steamy, subtropical environment and assume all the quirks they once scoffed at or didn’t fully understand. We decided to ask our readers the question: “What unique things do you pick up living in Miami?” Below are the 13 most popular answers: 1. Driving like an a-hole If you’ve lived here long enough, you’re probably beeping your horn as soon as the traffic light turns green, rolling through stop signs, merging without using your blinker, using the right lane as a passing lane, and just brazenly disregarding the rules of the road. You’ve likely also developed an aggressive case of road rage. RECOMMENDED: Don’t get caught with one of these Miami driving red flags 2. Adopting Spanglish as your first language The Miami accent is real. Despite your best efforts, after enough time, you will catch yourself uttering Miami-isms including “pero like,” “bro” and “literally” far more often than you care to admit. You may even start pronouncing the “L” in salmon. RECOMMENDED: The best and weirdest Miami slang you need to know Photograph: Shutterstock 3. D

If you happened to stream any of Bad Bunny’s music over the weekend, you might have noticed that the “Events” tab towards the top of his artist page on Spotify has populated with a fresh batch of concerts crossing North America—47 shows in 30 U.S. cities plus Toronto, to be exact. It wouldn’t be surprising if you had put on the Puerto Rican luminary’s latest album, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana, considering it became the most-streamed album in a single day in 2023 when it dropped on October 13. A return to the reggaeton star’s more trap-influenced roots, the album has already amassed more than 900 million streams on Spotify to date. Now, Bad Bunny is quietly gearing up for his first proper tour since 2022, when the three-time Grammy winner’s Un Verano Sin Ti took the world by storm. Unlike the World’s Hottest Tour—a massive, 43-night stadium tour and the highest-grossing tour ever by a Latin American act—the Most Wanted Tour will be a more intimate arena affair. According to the tour’s official promoter, Live Nation, Bad Bunny’s Most Wanted Tour will be “an experience curated for day-one fans…a rollercoaster of explicit lyrics that hones in on the star’s trap roots, so parental discretion is advised.”  It all kicks off on February 21 in Salt Lake City, with multiple nights in Las Vegas, Phoenix, San Francisco, Austin, Atlanta, Orlando and more before concluding with three consecutive performances right here in Miami.

Years after shuttering in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the elegant dining room at the Adrienne Arsht Center’s Ziff Ballet Opera House will finally reopen its doors this weekend. Downtown Miami's signature performing arts theater is set to unveil its dramatic new Teatro Restaurant on October 20. Previously Brava by acclaimed Miami chef Brad Kilgore, Teatro will serve a New American menu with creative European and Latin influences from executive chef Jose Danger. Constellation Culinary Group—the same team behind Verde at the Perez Art Museum and The Restaurant at the Norton Museum of Art, among others—have envisioned the restaurant as a one-stop destination for pre-show dinners, craft cocktails and an expansive selection of wines. The 2,500-square-foot dining room features a bold palette of deep red and gold tones, a not-so-subtle homage to the iconic red curtains of theater stages. To keep things streamlined prior to showtimes, the restaurant will offer a two-course prix-fixe menu featuring a choice of one appetizer and entrée or one entrée and dessert, along with a lineup of sides and a traditional à la carte menu.  Photograph: Courtesy Constellation Culinary Group For apps, think veg-forward dishes like an heirloom tomato carpaccio with mint tahini, toasted grains, Beldi olives and microgreens; Thai coconut curry mussels; huevos rotos made with crispy kettle chips, thinly sliced prosciutto and fried egg; and a “Big Mac” steak tartare of chopped black Angus beef with

Calle Ocho’s Café La Trova has once again made an impressive showing at the annual World’s 50 Best Bars awards, which were announced this morning via a live ceremony in Singapore. Helmed by Master Cantinero Julio Cabrera, the traditional Cuban bar with exceptional cocktails and hospitality now ranks No. 24 on the esteemed list of top watering holes around the world. Moving slightly down the list from its No. 21 spot in 2022, Café La Trova continues to rack up accolades. Back in 2020, the Little Havana darling debuted on the World’s 50 Best’s extended list, ranking at number 70—an impressive feat considering it was during the height of the pandemic. Even more impressive was the fact that no other bar in Miami was included. That same year, Café La Trova also took home a Spirited Award for Best American Bar Team. Like an Oscars for the booze business, the awards are given out by an academy of hundreds of drinks experts, renowned bartenders and consultants, drinks writers and cocktail specialists. This year’s 15th annual list features bars from 28 different cities around the world, including 11 new entries. Café La Trova was the only Florida entry, and one of just five U.S.-based bars to make the list.

We’ve done it again. For the sixth year running, Time Out polled thousands of city-dwellers around the world to get the scoop on the coolest spots in their cities. For the first time since launching the survey, a Miami neighborhood has been named among the top five coolest in the United States, and that neighborhood is Coral Gables. To compile this year’s shortlist, we asked over 12,000 people to weigh in on their hometowns: Which areas are home to the best new restaurants and most exciting cultural happenings? Where are people meeting up, going out and having fun? The final ranking takes into account the insight and expertise of city editors and local experts who know their cities inside and out. So how did Miami’s first planned community land in the nation’s No. 5 spot? Founded in 1925, Coral Gables is cool in a way not many places in Miami are. By no means understated, the “City Beautiful” trades out the velvet-roped gaudiness of Miami Beach for a more classic glamor, a pastel color palette for terracotta hues and the Atlantic Ocean for iconic swimming pools. But the Gables is so much more than its palm tree-lined boulevards and Mediterranean Revival-style architecture. Seemingly out of nowhere, it’s become one of Miami's most exciting foodie destinations, home to numerous homegrown concepts and Michelin-recognized spots (with even more on the way, if our suspicions are correct). The enclave boasts its own bustling downtown replete with locally owned businesses and cultura

We asked, and more than 200 of you answered: Which shuttered Miami businesses would you like to bring back from the dead? It’s a pertinent question, especially considering how quickly things open and, sadly, close in this city. Most of the time, these ill-fated Miami businesses fade out like a bad TikTok trend, scarcely remembered again. But there are plenty of dearly departed Miami gems, from restaurants to clubs and cafés, that have left a lasting impression even after their time has passed. Given a choice, we Miamians would gladly resurrect these spots—even if it meant they came back a little bit…different. 🧙‍♀️ RECOMMENDED: Guide to Halloween in Miami Image: Public Domain 1.

Whether you’re a diehard fan who cried when the Bros broke up back in 2013, a casual follower unashamed to admit that “Sucker” is a certified bop, or more recently invested in the irresistible drama surrounding (former) Miami residents Joe Jonas and his now estranged wife, Sophie Turner, your ears most likely perked up when you found out the Disney-bred trio will make a South Florida stop on their latest tour. Featuring music from across their entire catalog, the Jonas Brothers’ "Five Albums. One Night" tour kicked off in August has been dubbed the group’s most ambitious to date, running through a whopping three hours of material. As they prepare to descend on Downtown Miami this weekend, we’ve researched everything you might need to know ahead of the show. From set lists to parking, supporting acts and more, here’s your primer to the Jonas Brothers at Miami’s Kaseya Center. When are the Jonas Brothers playing in Miami?  The Jonas Brothers are playing in Miami on Saturday, October 14. What time will they come on stage?  Based on reports of previous tour stops, the Jonas Brothers will take the stage around 8pm. What time do doors open at the Kaseya Center?  Doors to the show open at 6pm. What’s the setlist for the FIVE ALUMBS. ONE NIGHT tour?  Judging from previous shows on the tour, the Jonas Brothers manage to boil down their discography into a three-hour set through a clever mix of medleys, leaving some tracks out and swapping them in for hits from the brothers’ solo moment

It’s a stereotype as old as time (or at least as old as the Nissan Altima): Miami drivers are really bad. Like, possibly the worst. They run red lights, fly through emergency lanes and block intersections. They cut you off, only to accost your ears with their blaring music at the next light. In the rain, they’re either going 15 miles per hour with their hazards on, or weaving through traffic and hydroplaning over puddles. They don’t understand how turn signals work, or the passing lane. And railroad crossings? Not as straight-forward as you’d think, apparently. Miamians are pretty vocal about the many shortcomings of their fellow drivers. In a recent Reddit thread about Miami driving red flags, users did not hold back. We’ve compiled highlights from their responses here. Miami driving red flags 1.

Many a disparaging remark has been made about Miami drivers and all their red flags, but this time, it really wasn’t us. A new study conducted and published by board-certified personal injury attorneys Dismuke Law has ranked the nation’s deadliest cities for car crashes and—surprise!—Miami didn’t crack the top 10. Not too far north, though, Fort Lauderdale landed in the fifth spot. South Florida drivers, beware: According to the study, Fort Lauderdale had a fatality rate of 21.09 per 100,000 people between 2017 and 2021, ranking our “Venice of America” among the top 10 U.S. cities with the highest car crash fatality rate. No other Florida cities made the list. Using data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), researchers looked at fatal car crashes in the most populous cities nationwide. The fatality rate was determined by examining the number of crashes against each city's population. The data was measured for every 100,000 people in each city.  Baton Rouge, Louisiana ranked as the deadliest city, having the highest rate of fatal crashes (25.49 per 100,000). Memphis, Tennessee and Macon-Bibb, Georgia ranked second and third, respectively.  On the other end of the spectrum, Cary Town, North Carolina is the least deadly city to drive in, according to the study, with a rate of just 1.52 car crash fatalities per 100,000 people.  Another surprise? The city with the fifth-lowest fatality rate is New York City, with a rate of 2.60 per 100,000 people.

Every April for the last 12 years and counting, the O, Miami Poetry Festival has made good on its mission of putting a poem in front of as many eyeballs as possible in celebration of National Poetry Month. Over its lifetime, the literary non-profit has collaborated with like-minded locals to paint poems onto rooftops, outline them into the sand, print them onto parking tickets, paste them across buses and sew them into clothing, to name just a few. These days, O, Miami has expanded its programming far beyond the annual festival. For its latest poetic turn of hand, the team has partnered up with Wynwood's legendary carbohydrate temple Zak the Baker to churn out even more delicious poetry for Miamians, by Miamians.  Throughout the month of October, "Poems for Bread" asks patrons to write a Miami-food-inspired haiku in exchange for a free loaf of bread. Remember haikus? Typically, they’re comprised of just three lines: The first has five syllables, the second has seven syllables and the third has five syllables.  Sounds simple enough, right? That’s because it is! Here are the details on how to participate and secure your free baked goods: One haiku will earn you one loaf of bread (per day, while supplies last). Your poem must be written and submitted at Zak the Baker during their hours of operation. The deal is available throughout October except on Saturdays and October 9. For anyone who lives here, works here, visits or is connected with Miami in some way, take a moment to

Spanglish is still the dominant language, 15 minutes late is still on time and driving down I-95 is still one of the most harrowing experiences a person can have on four wheels. There are just some Miami truisms that will never change. But like the rest of the world, this city is constantly evolving—many would argue faster than average, especially as Florida’s population growth continues to explode. Lately, we’ve found ourselves asking: Do we still have to wear six-inch stilettos to the club? Is the BBL our new beauty standard? And is soccer finally having its moment here? In an effort to make sense of it all, we spent some time taking stock of the true essence of Miami as it stands right now and came up with these, the new rules of living in Miami. RECOMMENDED: How not to be a dick in Miami 1. OnlyFans is a legitimate career path. A recent study dubbed Miami the OnlyFans capital of the U.S., with the highest number of “models” residing right here in the Magic City (nearly 5,000 at the time the study was conducted). The 18+ subscription platform empowers creators to monetize their content, with some earning upwards of $9,000 a month.  2. Do not, under any circumstance, mention New York.  *TW: NYC* For reasons we’ll elaborate on below, just don’t. Don’t ask how us how the Miami Carbone compares to New York’s. Don’t tell us about the cool new bar you found that’s “just like that one in Brooklyn.” And definitely don’t ask us to recommend the best neighborhoods to buy in. Photog
