Mango season in Miami is a big deal—so much so that we gave our favorite local produce its own festival, an annual tradition at Fairchild Garden for over three decades. On July 12th and 13th, learn everything there is to know about the juicy stone fruit and sample countless mango varieties, grown both around the globe and right here in our backyard, as on-site vendors whip up smoothies, mango-inspired cocktails and more refreshing natural treats. Mango seedlings will also be available for purchase so you can grow your own, you green thumb, you.
Pick a neighborhood in Miami: South Beach, Coconut Grove, Wynwood or Little Havana. No matter the night of the week, the Magic City is brimming with things to do—yes, even when there's a summer storm on the horizon. Now that the steamy weather has arrived, it's time to take advantage of thinner crowds and sunny beach weather before the daily deluges roll in. Art and cultural events are popping off across Miami this week, including an adults-only dance party in a museum, another edition of the monthly Wynwood Art Walk, a jazz night in the Design District and a mango-themed festival at a botanical garden.
Families can feast at the Smorgasburg Miami outdoor food market, get their hands dirty at a larger-than-life bug exhibit in Coral Gables, or explore the fascinating new Frost Science show, AI: More Than Human, which makes its way from the esteemed Barbican Centre across the pond.

In this list, we've handpicked special events and happenings over the next seven days, enough to have you saying, "This was the best week ever."
