In a matter of seconds, a seductive melody reverberates through the room causing the party people to involuntarily and uncontrollably shake their asses. They have caught Palo! fever. For the past decade, this…
Miami has something of a split personality. On one hand, there’s the nightlife scene, the wild child who stays up every other night partying at LIV, Mansion, and Cameo. On the other, there’s the Deering Estate, the peaceful, serene one who’s into nature and learning about the Magic City’s unique…
Listen up, beat freaks. You don’t have to wait till Friday to get your party on. Nope. That’s for our friends up north, who wish they lived in a city where the champagne is always flowing, the hard hitters come to party, and the uhntz-uhntz never stops. We’re in Miami,…

One of the perks of living in Miami are the non-stop, bottle-poppin’, liquor flowin’ parties on South Beach. Not only do we have celebrity-status bashes every night of the week, there’s a whole whack of ’em to choose from. It’s no wonder they call this place the Magic City. Just…
What do Purple Haze, Estrella Damm, and Uncle Luke have in common? They’re just a few of the names you’ll see at this year’s Miami New Times’ Brew at the Zoo. Going on its fourth year, the beer fest has annually attracted more than 6,000 hops-lovers to Zoo Miami (12400…

The background noise of small talk from athletes finishing the Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run was interrupted by the roaring sound of motors as a group of about 15 bikers swarmed El Vato into Mary Brickell Village.
