Engines aren't the only things revving up for Miami Race Week — the city's party circuit is firing on all cylinders, too. From poolside ragers and rooftop sessions to glitzy club bangers and outdoor raves, the Magic City's nightlife is burning rubber with a lineup that rivals the big names on the circuit.

Off-track festivities bring a high-octane blend of music, luxury, and serious flexing. Whether catching a sunrise set from Rüfüs Du Sol at Club Space or raising a whiskey-laced toast with Pitbull at Hard Rock Live, there's something for every kind of speed demon and party freak.
