March 1-7, 2017 in Miami Beach
Winter Party is a weeklong festival of iconic dance and social events, produced to raise critical funds for the LGBTQ community. This year, experience DJs ROSABEL at the Beach Party, the return of WE Party, a special edition VERVE Afterhours, and an all-new location for the Pool Party!
Founded in 1994, the original Winter Party featured just one event, a dance party on the sands of South Beach. In the years since, Winter Party has grown into an iconic weeklong celebration featuring dozens of events and drawing crowds by the thousands from around the globe. Their method is part genius and part magic. They feature an amazing mix of people, music, entertainment and international DJ talent, in the exhilarating, world-class venues of Miami Beach. Get ready to PLAY HARD.
Things kick off on Wednesday, March 1 as the National Hotel hosts the official opening of the Welcome Center. You can pick up your tickets there, shop for sway, and have a few drinks with the people who make the parties happen.
From Thursday, March 2 through Tuesday, March 7, Miami and Miami Beach’s hottest nightclubs will be taken over by the thousands of partiers who will come out to help raise money for the National LGBTQ Task Force. Some of the highlights of the weekend include:
