What to do in Miami during these unusual holidays?
Christmas and the Holiday season are approaching. Without a question it feels abysmally different than other years. Should you suspend gatherings and events? To a certain extend, yes.

On the other hand, you have your sanity to worry about! Miami is a highly-spirited city, and we surely need the positive vibes, and some celebration to endure these challenging times. It won´t be the same; it will be different, nonetheless you can still do certain activities on the safe side and enjoy these upcoming days.
Remember: Don’t plan on a late night: Miami curfew remains from midnight until 6 a.m., and Miami city police plan to enforce the curfew as COVID-19 cases rise in the state. Masks are still required in most businesses so mask up.
