Things to do at Miami Pride 2026 beyond the parade. Parties, shows, restaurants, nightlife, and activities for every budget and interest.
There's much more to Miami Pride than just the parade. Here are the best things to do before, during, and after the celebration.
During Pride weekend
- Beach festival at Lummus Park with live music and DJ sets (both days)
- Pool parties at South Beach hotels throughout Pride weekend
- Wynwood Walls street art and galleries
- Day trip to Wilton Manors in Fort Lauderdale for a second LGBTQ+ neighborhood
- Drag brunch at Palace Bar on Ocean Drive
- Sunset cruise or boat party in Biscayne Bay
Beyond the parade
Miami is a world-class city with plenty to do beyond Pride events. If you're extending your trip, explore the neighborhoods, local restaurants, museums, and outdoor spaces that make this city special.
Food and drink
Ask locals for restaurant recommendations in the LGBTQ+ neighborhoods — the best spots aren't always the ones with the biggest signs. During Pride weekend, many restaurants and bars run specials, themed menus, and Pride brunches.
Planning your days
Pride weekend goes fast. A good strategy:
- Day before — Arrive, settle in, explore the LGBTQ+ neighborhoods, check out the pre-Pride events
- Parade day — Arrive at the route early, watch the parade, head to the festival afterward, then dinner and nightlife
- Day after — Sleep in, brunch, explore the city's non-Pride attractions before heading home
