URGE Miami Thanksgiving Festival
About This Event
URGE Miami is the Thanksgiving-weekend circuit festival that stepped into the space left by White Party Week, the legendary Miami institution that wound down in 2019. It runs over the long holiday weekend in late November: four days and nights of parties anchored at M2 on Washington Avenue in South Beach, with pool parties, teas and after-hours spread across several venues, and a crowd that flies in from across the US and Latin America.
Passes are sold per event and as weekend packages, and host-hotel deals are usually announced in the autumn. The 2026 edition is expected over Thanksgiving weekend (listings point to 28 November to 1 December), but confirm dates and the line-up on the festival's own channels before booking flights.
