Oprah is more than a person. She’s a force of nature — a cultural phenomenon and modern-day prophet for the spiritually starved masses. She holds answers to the questions of an entire generation. And she’s heading to Miami to help you live the life you want.
Oprah’s The Life You Want Weekend will take over AmericanAirlines Arena (601 Biscayne Blvd., Miami) with an O-gasm of epic proportions. Oprah herself will appear (try to hold the hyperventilating till she arrives), along with her handpicked peeps Iyanla Vanzant, Rob Bell, Elizabeth Gilbert, and Deepak Chopra.
Attendees can experience the awesomeness of all things Oprah this Friday night — and O and friends Saturday, plus gain entry to O-Town, a pop-up town square in Museum Park featuring a giant dance party, an Oprah Show Gallery, a group-selfie smile wall, appearances by Oprah’s bestie Gayle King, and a ton of Oprah-approved merchandise to spend your life savings on. Oh, and you’ll get a special glowing O Tour Wristband that promises to do all kinds of supersecret magical stuff throughout the weekend.
At this point, the woman once known as Oprah Winfrey has reached near-mythical status. Time to worship at the altar of O and have all of your burning questions answered once and for all.
Oprah’s The Life You Want Weekend runs from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday. O-Town will be set up at Museum Park (1075 Biscayne Blvd., Miami) from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. Tickets cost $99 to $999. Visit oprahweekend.com.
