Come summer, most Miamians will either practically live on the beach or find a way to escape the scorching heat.

But with endless nights of debauchery and uhntz-uhntz from Calvin Harris, Arty, and other superstar DJs, you'll probably find yourself hitting up SoBe more than usual, with make-up melting down your face, clothes sticking to your body, and all.

So check out Crossfade's six best parties going down on South Beach this week.

Ages 21 and up. ¡Boricua, Cubano, Dominicano, Colombiano... oye mi canto!
