The best Art Basel and Miami Art Week events to book for 2025

The time has come to send out your calendar invites, rename the group chat to something cute like “Basel Babes,” and start planning for the whirlwind ahead. Miami Art Week arrives on December 1, beckoning crowds to every corner of the city to partake in the international art fairs, museum shows, music festivals, culinary pop-ups, outdoor installations, wellness events and brand activations that have all been designed to platform and celebrate the arts.

For one glorious week, locals get to dress up and gallivant around town with the thrilling knowledge that their city is currently the epicenter of the art world. For visitors, Miami is a sun-soaked paradise to peruse and purchase art while exploring the amazing restaurants and neighborhoods that make the city so special. Whichever category you fall into, the best time to start prepping your Art Basel events schedule was yesterday—so let’s get to it.

What to expect: If your interest in art leans 2000s hip-hop and EDM, make your way to megaclub E11EVEN for The Art of Nightlife, where headliners like Ty Dolla $ign, 50 Cent, Diplo, Marshmello and CamelPhat will light up the stage along with surprise acts and signature acrobatics that will make your head spin.
