You've downed plenty of drinks and indulged in a filling dinner, so what's next for your girls' night out in Miami? Of course it's dancing. Because of its genuinely unpretentious vibe, Ball & Chain on Calle Ocho is one of the best nightspots in town. While enjoying free well drinks from 8 to 10 p.m., dance your Wednesday night away, or get your karaoke on in front of an audience on the iconic Pineapple Stage. For a break from dancing and singing, people-watch from the indoor or outdoor bar. Arrive early to avoid the long line to get inside.

Head to Basement with your phone fully charged — the lounge inside the Miami Beach Edition is one of the most Instagram-worthy spots in South Florida. Offering a nightclub, a bowling alley, and an ice-skating rink, the venue treats girl squads to complimentary ice-skating in its 2,000 square-foot neon indoor rink every Wednesday. Then it's on to sipping free boozy slushies from 10 p.m. to midnight and dancing to killer beats.

Planning your next fun girls' trip to Mexico? While you're trying to coordinate, this Mexican cantina in Brickell will do the trick. Cantina la Veinte, located inside the Icon Brickell, offers free margaritas every Wednesday from 5 to 10 at its upstairs and downstairs bars. If you and your friends are single, this is also a great place to mingle. The atmosphere is festive and casual, and people pop in and out all night.

"Las Fabulosas" ladies' nights offer a cracking soundtrack of six women DJs, and bottles of Moët Ice Rosé go for $80 all night, so bring your crew and share.

New Times' readers' choice for Best Ladies' Night, this swanky Wynwood rooftop bar, lounge, and music venue rises above all expectations of a traditional night on the town. Every Thursday beginning at 7 p.m., ladies enjoy 50 percent off specialty cocktails such as the Dirty Beet, made with tequila, beet juice, jalapeño, and Ancho Reyes liqueur ($7). Pair cocktails with a small-bites menu while dancing to DJ Hilda Jay's banging Latin beats and enjoying stunning city views.

Start your week off on the right foot at Quinto la Huella. Nestled inside Brickell's East hotel, this Uruguayan eatery is a Monday ladies' destination offering complimentary rosé from 5 to 8 as part of its La Previa happy hour. Head here straight from the office if you want to sit and relax at the bar; otherwise, enjoy your wine in one of the dining rooms or the grill room, or find your way to the rooftop patio for some fresh air. The restaurant offers a stellar menu of South American meats, seafood, andpasta for you and your crew to enjoy with your drinks.
