Do your homework.
Make sure it’s not a holiday or festival weekend. If so, prices for hotels, clubs, and restaurants will all be exponentially more expensive. Secondly, all the best spots will be overcrowded. Clubs that are otherwise doable become unreasonably priced, hotel prices surge, and transportation becomes very difficult. So to help, here is a list of holiday/event weekends that you should be aware of when choosing dates for your party:
February 13 - 17 - The Miami International Boat Show
February 22 - Wine & Food Festival
March - College Spring Break
March 6 - 15 - Miami International Film Festival
March 24 - 26 - Ultra Music Festival
May 21 - 25 - Urban Music Week
December 3 - 6 - Art Basel
December 25 - Christmas
January 1 - New Years
It’s still possible to come on any one of these weekends, it just might be less enjoyable and definitely more expensive.
