Miami Beach is ready to kick off the unofficial start to summer with a collection of events and experiences for visitors.

To help make it even easier for those ready to plan vacations or staycations now, the Miami Beach Visitor and Convention Authority (MBVCA) is adding new itineraries and recommendations to the newly-launched destination tour app now available on Apple and Google, EXP Miami Beach Tours (EXPMiamiBeach.Tours).

Events include pop-up events on Miami Beach in conjunction with the second annual F1 Miami Grand Prix and the oceanfront Hyundai Air & Sea Show.

“We know travelers are eager to embark on their summer vacations and Miami Beach is ready to welcome them in May to get the season underway even earlier. Our team is continuously working to provide the most updated information on events and experiences we know our visitors expect,” says Christopher Rollins, chair of the Miami Beach Visitor and Convention Authority (MBVCA). “The MBVCA proudly supports seasonal events like the Hyundai Air & Sea Show to provide family-friendly options, while our destination hotels and restaurants offer the most inviting spaces with curated experiences and innovative menus based on the season.”

There will be a “Supper Club on the Sand,” which returns for the F1 Miami Grand Prix at Carbone Beach from May 4 to 7, 2023. Each evening offers a gastronomic experience curated by Mario Carbone and surprise performances. Travelers looking to make the most of the next long holiday weekend can take it from the sands of Miami Beach to the air and sea by following @experiencemiamibeach on Instagram and enter for the chance to win tickets for a special viewing of the 2023 Hyundai Air & Sea Show May 27 and 28. The sweepstakes will launch on May 15 via social media. Travelers can also enjoy up to 50% off with member rates at South Beach Group hotels on Miami Beach including Hotel Croydon and Catalina Hotel & Beach Club.

“The summer season traditionally begins with Memorial Day Weekend, however, this year, we have a number of events and experiences that are perfect for travelers to attend well before the summer solstice,” adds Grisette Marcos, executive director of the MBVCA. “We encourage future visitors to download our new app and sign up for the monthly newsletter to access the latest deals and specials to help travelers begin their summer vacation in May.”
