Every year during Memorial Day weekend, Miami earns its reputation
as the East Coast’s most banging club city. More than 300,000 party
people, pro athletes, porn stars, socialites, and rappers will once
again swarm South Florida’s shores. It’s a loosely organized yet
massive celebration of the hip-hop generation, from OGs to fine ladies.
That said, all shorties, listen up: The clubs listed here are strictly
21 and over, so you’re advised to party at home. Sorry.
