June marks the official kickoff of the slow season in Miami—in tandem with the start of hurricane season. But if we're being honest, the action doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon. Wynwood Pride picks up the torch for Pride month celebrations, with a lineup of rooftop pool parties, lesbian nights and a drag festival all on the schedule this month. There's also a queer roller disco we've got our eye on and the annual TEA dance at the Arsht Center. Beyond the LGTBQ+ fun to look forward to this June, we've got plenty of concerts, exhibitions, street festivals and outdoor activities to get excited about—not to mention that visits to a Miami museum make for an excellent thing to do in Miami when it rains (it tends to do that quite a bit in June). Below, find our continually updated list of the best June events in Miami right now.

Think of it as a fun foray into an exciting new technology—or a harbinger of the imminent robot takeover. Either way, this new exhibition at Frost Science aims to fascinate with four thought-provoking sections that trace the evolution of AI and feature everything from research to artistic collaborations. Curated and organized by the City of London’s Barbican Centre and co-produced by Groningen Forum, Netherlands, AI: More Than Human presents works by leading artists, scientists and researchers, exploring what it means to be human, the definition of consciousness, the ethics around AI and whether machines will ever outsmart us.
