These are the best things to do in Miami this weekend

PGA TOUR golf is back at Doral for the first time in a decade, and it's returning in style. The Cadillac Championship runs April 29 through May 3 at Trump National Doral as one of eight Signature Events on the 2026 PGA TOUR season — a limited field of 72 of the world's best players, with the likes of Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood and Justin Rose all expected to compete. The Blue Monster has hosted 56 PGA TOUR events since 1962, with 14 World Golf Hall of Famers claiming 24 titles on the course, including Tiger Woods, who won here four times between 2005 and 2013.

Beyond the golf, the on-course food and drink experience is designed to feel more like a curated Miami tasting than standard tournament concessions. The VVIP 1962 Club rotates through a different restaurant partner each day, with MIKA Coral Gables, Miami Slice, Taikin and Maple & Ash all taking turns. Out on the grounds, fans can find Miami Slice's cult New York-style pies in the Palmetto Park Fan Zone, Sergio's Cuban American Kitchen running Cubanos and empanadas, and Sunset Slush Italian ice carts roaming the course. Regatta Grove pops up on holes 4 and 5 with Aperol Spritzes and mojitos, and a Michelob ULTRA Club on the back nine offers an open-air lounge with complimentary beer, wine and seltzer Thursday through Sunday.

Daily grounds tickets start at $40; kids 15 and under get in free with a ticketed adult. Tickets at CadillacChampionship.com.

A weekend ahead of the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, Beach House Fort Lauderdale's Barto Lounge is hosting a two-night sip-and-taste event celebrating a collaboration between the Aston Martin Formula One Team and Glenfiddich. Receive a complimentary Hendrick's Gin cocktail upon arrival, and enjoy it as you ogle the Aston Martin on display. There will be specialty martinis and premium single malts available for purchase, as well as live music. April 24–25; Free entry; Barto Lounge at Beach House Fort Lauderdale.

The Miami Beach Bandshell's new two-day festival format is exactly what it sounds like: music and beach, back to back, across an April weekend. Saturday and Sunday April 25 and 26, the lineup moves through psychedelic cumbia pioneers Los Mirlos, Grammy-winning Black Pumas co-founder Adrian Quesada, experimental R&B sensation Sudan Archives making her Miami debut, Brazilian neo-psychedelic group Boogarins, London-born electronic ambient artist Leifur James in his US debut, and a full roster of DJs including Nikita Green and Dude Skywalker. Ticket holders get complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas, access to the beach lounge with re-entry until 7pm, an Everglades Oyster Raw Bar and an immersive visual art installation by Beatriz Chachamovits running throughout. Both days start at 3pm at the Miami Beach Bandshell. Tickets start at $119.

If you know Tovah Feldshuh from Nobody Wants This, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend or The Walking Dead, you know only a fraction of the story. Feldshuh has spent five decades shapeshifting across Broadway and screen, from Golda Meir to a Hillary Clinton-inspired zombie apocalypse survivor, and now a new documentary traces the whole arc. TOVAH, directed by David Serero, features archival footage and interviews from Dustin Hoffman, Oscar Isaac, Patti LuPone, Adam Brody, Katie Couric and Joy Behar among many others. The Hub screens the film on April 26 followed by a live conversation and Q&A with Feldshuh and Serero in the room. VIP tickets ($54) include a brunch reception with Feldshuh beforehand; general admission is $36. 1pm at The Hub, 5950 N. Kendall Drive, Pinecrest.

A mangrove trash cleanup followed by a drag queen teaching you how to write a limerick — that's O, Miami doing what O, Miami does. On April 26, Miami's King of Trash Andrew Otazo leads a coastal clean-up through the mangroves of Crandon Park, and then Auntie Maim, the Drag Queen of Talking Trash, takes over with poet Nicole Combeau for a lesson in the art of the limerick: the humorous, slightly cutting poetic form that lends itself perfectly to saying exactly what you think about someone. Participants can opt to read their limericks aloud. Rain or shine. Gloves and trash bags provided; bring sunscreen. $20, ages 16+. April 26, 8:30am–12:30pm at Calusa Park, Crandon Park, Key Biscayne.

Ray-Ban takes over Motoring Archives at Sunset Place on April 25 to mark the launch of the Ray-Ban x Ferrari Miami Grand Prix Special Edition frames, with complimentary coffee and bites, an archival selection of driver and collector cars on display and vintage merch available for purchase. Motoring Archives is already one of South Miami's better Saturday morning spots — a car dealership and coffee shop rolled into one — and this gives you a reason to make the trip ahead of F1 weekend.

Five years in, Cervecería La Tropical is throwing itself the kind of party it deserves. The celebration on April 25 runs from 3:30pm to midnight with more than seven live bands, hourly raffles, new menu items from returning consulting chef Cindy Hutson and a meet and greet with founder Manny Portuondo early in the evening. Headlining the night are Los Wizzards — Miami natives fresh off a 2026 Grammy nomination for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album — returning to the same stage they played at La Tropical's opening five years ago. Taproom entry is free all day; access to the Jardines concert experience runs $20 in advance or $40 at the door. April 25, 3:30pm–midnight at Cervecería La Tropical.

Havana-born percussionist and drummer Calixto Oviedo, known for his work with Cuban powerhouses Irakere and NG La Banda, brings his Cuban Jazz Train to the Miami Beach Botanical Garden on April 25 for an outdoor night of Afro-Cuban rhythms, jazz and funk. Selector Lula Rios opens with a vinyl set before Oviedo and the band take over. Part of Miami Jazz Booking's ongoing Jazz in the Jungle series, it's the kind of Saturday night that doesn't require much convincing. 7:30pm. Tickets starting at $28.78

This bustling vintage market enters its 35th year in 2026 on South Beach's famed Lincoln Road. Approximately every other Sunday (check their calendar for exact dates; April is scheduled on the 12th and 26th), 125 vendors convene along the promenade to showcase their wares and barter with discerning shoppers. Find everything from mid-century furniture to Art Deco decor and more. The long-running weekend social presents a solid mix of 19th and 20th-century memorabilia and unique collectibles.

Fort Lauderdale's Las Olas Boulevard becomes one long tasting menu on April 24, with more than 40 restaurants setting up pop-up stations along the strip and over 200 wines from around the world available to work through at your own pace. Now in its 30th year, the festival runs three hours on a Friday night — a solid reason to head north for the evening. General admission is $175; VIP is $300 and includes early entry and additional experiences. April 24, 7:30–10:30pm on Las Olas Boulevard between SE 6th and SE 11th Ave, Fort Lauderdale.

A Saturday morning yoga class on the beach with a DJ, ocean views and lululemon gifts for the first 50 through the door — honestly, there are worse ways to spend a Saturday morning. lululemon ambassador Rachel Lynn leads the flow at the Andaz Miami Beach on April 25, with day access to the hotel's private beach and food and drink discounts after class. $37.45; 9:30am–12pm.

PAMM's biggest exhibition of the spring and summer brings together more than 100 works exploring what sports mean beyond the scoreboard: how competition, athleticism and the culture around games shape identity, memory and shared experience. On view through August 23, the show features Ernie Barnes's neighborhood basketball scenes, Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno's real-time portrait of Zinedine Zidane, and Tara Mateik's take on the 1973 Battle of the Sexes, alongside work from Virgil Abloh, Mark Bradford, Glenn Ligon, Catherine Opie, Yinka Shonibare and Hank Willis Thomas, among others. Historic sports memorabilia like vintage Nike sneakers, and original McLaren Racing steering wheels sit alongside contemporary art throughout. Timed to Miami's run of major sporting events this spring, from the Miami Open to Formula 1 to the FIFA World Cup, it's a fitting moment for a museum to ask what the arena actually means. Included with museum admission at PAMM.

A 25,000-square-foot immersive experience dedicated to agave and tequila opens April 2 at Toledo Studios in Hialeah. Backed by the Beckmann family, the dynasty behind Jose Cuervo, 1800, Reserva de la Familia and Centenario, who have been making tequila since 1758, and developed in collaboration with Mexican-American multimedia artist Danié Gómez-Ortigoza, the experience begins with guests boarding a train that symbolically transports them from Miami to Mexico before moving through more than ten immersive environments tracing agave from seed to spirit. Along the way there are recreations of La Rojeña, the oldest distillery in Latin America and birthplace of Cuervo, and the home of Centenario's original master distiller — plus tastings, live performances and a mercado to close things out. 

The great Montreal contemporary-circus troupe brings its Luzia production to South Florida, performing cutting-edge acrobatics and tightly choreographed dance numbers amid lavish costumes and set pieces. This show, written and directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca, is inspired by the culture of Mexico. Running February 19 through April 25 at Gulfstream Park, Luzia takes audiences through a series of surrealistic scenes, from an old movie set to a smoky dance hall, an arid desert, and even a cenote. It's a dream-like, sensory exploration of Mexico's past and present, packed with awe-inspiring moments—including rain incorporated into acrobatic and artistic scenes (a first for a Cirque du Soleil touring production).

The ICA Miami is devoting its third floor to the first U.S. museum survey of Harmony Korine, the filmmaker behind Spring Breakers and Kids who has spent three decades confounding and captivating audiences in equal measure. Perfect Nonsense brings together over 50 works spanning film, painting, photography, collage and drawing, tracing a career that has always resisted easy categorization, from his early Southern gothic explorations to recent films shot through gaming engines and iPhone footage. Korine has lived in Miami since 2015, and the city is woven into his recent work in ways the exhibition makes tangible. Beyond the films most people know, the paintings are the revelation here — particularly the "Twitchy" series, which combines iPhone-captured images with painterly techniques into something genuinely strange and new. The exhibition will be on view through October 4.

After sell-out runs in Paris, Rome, and Milan, From the Heart to the Hands: Dolce&Gabbana arrives in Miami, opening February 6 at ICA Miami and running through June 14, 2026. The exhibition offers a rare look inside the creative universe of designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, tracing how their ideas move from inspiration to execution—all by hand. Curated by Florence Müller and produced by IMG, the show brings together more than 300 Alta Moda pieces, set within immersive installations and shown alongside works by contemporary artists, celebrating the artisanry, excess, and exuberance of Italian aesthetics. 

Art, sexuality and cultural taboos converge at the Museum of Sex with the debut of its latest exhibition, Hard Art: Unruly Selections from the Beth Rudin DeWoody Collection. Explore decades of boundary-pushing works spanning the 1930s to today, pulled from the private collection of one of the world’s most dynamic collectors. From playful to profound and, at times, deemed too provocative for public display, the featured works include a wide range of media that challenges convention and invites conversation. Curated with the goal of amplifying underrepresented voices and celebrating uncensored expression, artists on view include Marco Brambilla, Jimmy DeSana, Bunny Yeager, John Kayser and others.
