Smorgasburg Miami

2600 NW Second Ave., Miami
954-399-1583
smorgasburgmiami.com
Smorgasburg launched Miami in the heart of Wynwood at 2612 NW Second Ave. in March 2022. A play on the Swedish "smorgasbord" meaning a wide array of foods, and the location for the market's debut in Williamsburg in 2011, Smorgasburg instantly became a popular destination for New Yorkers, regularly drawing upwards of 10,000 visitors in search of a great afternoon of eating, drinking and meeting up with friends. Smorgasburg Miami will be open on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and will occupy prime real estate in the epicenter of Wynwood. Adjacent to the Wynwood Walls, the 50,000-square-foot park-like setting will ultimately host 60 food vendors and ten interesting retail vendors. Staying true to the brand's fundamental views, the market will be "By Miami, For Miami," the bulk of the vendors will be local with a smattering of some beloved concepts that were hatched in Brooklyn and L.A. Saturday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
