Believe it or not, there's more to III Points than just the festival at Mana Wynwood. Whether it's starting your morning with the Daybreaker party at Space or learning about the history of Wynwood's graffiti culture, III Points hopes to take over your entire weekend.

Highlights include the return of the Booty Bass Bounce House, which is moving to Gramps this year and bringing along its infamous papaya-eating contest. There's also the panel How to Release and Promote Your Music, which will school local musicians on how to navigate the business of performing. And if you are looking to not sleep at all this weekend, Danny Daze will spin at Space in one of several official afterparties happening at venues across town.

Best of all, even if you aren't attending the festival at Mana, most of the satellite events are free.
