Want to party on a budget during Memorial Day Weekend? Want to also party as far as possible from Miami Beach? Well, you're in luck. The Miami-based collective Mean Pugging and the cassette label Ear Problems are hosting Miami Paradise, a party where you can listen to great local talent while hiding from the traffic-pocalypse of South Beach.

Miami Paradise will take place at MADE at the Citadel, a pretty hip coworking space located near the Little River area, on 83rd Street and NE Second Avenue. The party will host local electronic producers that play everything from ambient to minimal and deep to progressive house. The lineup includes names like TIDUR, Triangles, Pachu, Avstin Frank, and Henrry Zelaya.

If you're into the local electronic music scene, chances are you've danced to their sets at the Electric Pickle or parties organized by the XYZA collective.

Doors open at 8:30 p.m. and, according to the organizers, there will be very limited capacity. So, if you want to have a good time without having to wait in line, make sure to arrive early.

Miami Paradise with TIDUR, Triangles, Pachu, Avstin Frank, and Henrry Zelaya. 8:30 p.m. Saturday, May 28, at Made at the Citadel, 8325 NE Second Ave., Miami; 305-989-8601; madeatthecitadel.com. Admission is free.
