Miami's reputation as a party town means that there is almost always something going on, whether it is a big conference or exhibition, or a big party.
The biggest event of the year in Miami is the Carnaval, which takes place for 9 days at the start of March and includes beauty pageants, parades, and a drag queen spectacular at the Orange Bowl Stadium.
If you prefer something a little more sedate, then the Miami Book Fair in November is a great time to visit to meet your favourite author, as well as buying plenty of books.
