South Beach Jazz Festival: January 3-5

It’s the perfect music festival to “jazz” up a balmy winter weekend in Miami. This three-day festival won’t just inspire you with its fantastic rhythm and tunes, but also its band members. Going by the motto “from disability to serendipity,” all participating bands have at least one member with a disability. With over 34,000 people in attendance last year, you’ll jam to classic, Latin and New Orleans style jazz belted out by Grammy Award winners to toe-tapping local talent. The festival features tickets to free performances along with brunches, masterclasses and a musical film showcase.

February is undoubtedly one of the best times of year to visit Miami. The weather is delightfully perfect, with temperatures ranging between 64°F (18°C) and 78°F (26°C). These mild and sunny days are perfect to enjoy beach outings, sightseeing, and outdoor activities – a wonderful escape from the cold winters and snow in most other parts of the country.
