Brickell Events and the big Miami festivals around them fill the calendar almost every month. Brickell, Miami’s financial district on Biscayne Bay, sits in the middle of it all: minutes from downtown’s arena and museums, a short drive to Miami Beach and next door to Little Havana. This month-by-month guide from our team at ORA by Casa Tua shows what to plan for each season, with links to our detailed guides.

Everyday Brickell Events and Neighborhood Life
Beyond the headline festivals, Brickell Events happen every week: farmers markets, rooftop happy hours, run clubs along Brickell Bay Drive, live music at Mary Brickell Village and seasonal programming at Brickell City Centre. The Underline, the linear park growing beneath the Metrorail, hosts fitness classes and community events. The free Metromover connects it all to downtown.
This everyday rhythm is why Brickell attracts full-time residents, not just visitors. You can walk to dinner, take the Metromover to a game and reach Key Biscayne’s beaches in minutes.
Getting Around for Brickell Events
- Metromover: free, automated and connected to downtown venues.
- Metrorail: links Brickell with Coconut Grove and the airport line.
- Rideshare and private drivers: best for Miami Beach and Hard Rock Stadium events.
- Walking: most Brickell restaurants and bars are within a few blocks.
