Hard Rock Live

A 7,000-seat venue provides the perfect staging, acoustics, and ambiance for an epic evening of music on any given night at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood. Whether it’s Lionel Richie, OneRepublic, Hall & Oates, Diana Ross, or Loretta Lynn, each act that graces the stage at Hard Rock Live is guaranteed to provide a […]

Honor Roll Music

Need a catchy jingle or soulful tune but can’t write to save your life? Turn to the pros at Honor Roll Music. These folks have crafted musical renditions for the biggest names in the biz. Founders Nick Scapa and J. Reade Fasse created the songwriting factory of sorts back in 2006, and now they’ve got […]

House Nightclub

The best parties are always house parties, so it’s only natural that House Nightclub tries to re-create that experience every night. Once you possess a “house key,” you are free to explore the venue, located on the edge of where Wynwood meets Overtown. You enter through the high-tech foyer/living room, where silver bubbles in the […]

The Hoxton

Ebony wooden floors, built-in book shelves with picture frames on the walls, and huge, striped couches that can fit an army of party-goers are not what you would expect to find at a Brickell lounge. Named after the hip street in London in the area of Charlotte, the Hoxton has a laid-back, “urban beach house” […]

iThink Financial Amphitheatre

By any other name – say Coral Sky, MARS, Sound Advice, the Snuggles Fabric Softener Bear Arena, Cruzan Amphitheatre – this gigantic outdoor shed now called the Perfect Vodka Amphitheatre would still sound as sweet. However, unlike the big, open-air venues up north, ours is available year-round. Music seems to sound better out-of-doors, and Perfect […]

Kaffe Krystal

Out in the middle of nowhere, the Latin rhythms flow freely and the booties shake as fast as the maracas. This rather large venue behind the Wendy’s and Pizza Hut caters to the Spanish hip-shaking crowd with the occasional rock show mixing it up.

Kaseya Center

Besides its duties as home base for our beloved Heat, the Kaseya Center (formerly the American Airlines Arena and FTX Arena) sees a lot of action. The 20,000 seat downtown arena is hard to miss, what with the thousands of taillights from the gridlock it induces or the massive outdoor screen facing the street. Regardless, […]

Kill Your Idol

A statue of Bruce Lee’s karate-ripped body overlooks the bar. A World War II Hindenburg hub floats from the ceiling. An astronaut in a space suit hangs next to a dangling chandelier made of glass bottles. A bearded dude wearing an Hoy Polloy T-shirt scores on the Playboy pinball machine, and chicks in high-waisted black […]

La Covacha

For years this party hall has been moonlighting on weekends as one of Miami’s wildest places for a Latin music descarga. The main room features Latin-flavored techno music, and its outdoor patio packs a throng of sweaty and well-dressed partiers. Or escape to the air-conditioned, glass-enclosed VIP room.

La Paloma

With an eerie ambiance of dark yellow lights and red carpet, La Paloma reminds me of that bar in The Shining, where the bartender is actually a ghost. Try the White Russian.
