The Ten Best Things To Do in Miami This Weekend

The weekend is finally here, Miami. And, as always, the Magic City offers plenty to keep you entertained. Ultra brings its dizzying thump-thump to town starting on Friday, but if EDM isn’t your thing, then there’s classical music, literary festivals, modern dance and more.
