Weekend of Jul 3 - Jul 5, 2026

WEEKEND SNAPSHOT

Oppressive July heat with 90°F+ highs and the standard 4:00 PM 'flush' of thunderstorms daily.

FIFA World Cup Round of 32 energy is peaking with Argentina vs. Cape Verde on Friday.

⚡ If You Only Do One Thing

Red, White & Grove: 250 United

Saturday, 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM

"While Bayfront and Miami Beach will be gridlocked, Coconut Grove offers a high-end, resident-centric alternative with Grammy-winner Tony Succar and a waterfront fireworks finale without the 3-hour bridge traffic."

PRO TIP: Ditch the car and take the Metrorail from Culmer or Historic Overtown Station to Coconut Grove Station; the BID usually runs a free shuttle from the station to the park.
