Santa’s Enchanted Forest starting this November 9 – 1/7
It’s not really Christmas in Miami until you’ve taken a picture in front of the tunnel of lights that leads to Santa’s Enchanted Forest. The local holiday tradition continues in Doral with thrilling midway rides, elaborate Christmas scenes, music, animals and hundreds of thousands of lights. This November even though the temperature might not quite feel like winter, a trip to Santa’s puts you squarely in the holiday spirit. Regular hours are 5 p.m. to midnight, though the attraction sometimes stays open later on busy nights and weekends.
Florida Grand Opera – La Traviata 11-14
Miami’s resident opera company, Florida Grand Opera, takes over the stage at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County in Downtown Miami for three performances of the classic opera La Traviata. It tells the story of a young man who falls in love with Paris’ most desired courtesan, only to have his father reject their love in an unbridled rage.
Miami Book Fair 12-19
The streets outside Miami-Dade College’s Wolfson Campus transform into a sprawling outdoor book store as the school hosts the annual Miami Book Fair.

Miami Dolphins Vs. Las Vegas Raiders 19
The Miami Dolphins have one of the most high-powered offenses in the NFL, putting up a franchise-record 70 points earlier this year.

They’ll take on the Las Vegas Raiders at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens at 1 p.m.
Miami Short Film Festival 17-19
Contrary to what some big studios think, great movies don’t have to be three hours long. Discover the genius of short film during the Miami Short Film Festival, where features of 30 minutes or less fill the big screen at the Regal South Beach Cinema, O Cinema and a special screening room at the Deering Estate. The festival also includes filmmaker workshops and a closing awards ceremony. Find your film and purchase tickets in advance.
URGE Festival 24-27
Immediately after Thanksgiving, Miami’s LGBTQ+ community turns its attention to the URGE Miami Thanksgiving Festival, a four-day circuit party filled with electronic music and outrageous performances.
