South Florida’s Extended "Season": Celebrating Life, Luxury, and Local Events
Experience the best of South Florida’s spring and summer - Formula 1, Air show, Mother’s Day retreats and Luxury Lifestyle
In South Florida, what we affectionately call 'season' has a way of stretching well beyond its typical winter months, now lingering deep into spring and summer. With the return of the high-speed thrills of the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, vibrant Mother’s Day celebrations, Memorial Day weekend festivities, and an endless list of special events - ranging from graduation dinners to renowned art exhibits there’s no shortage of reasons to celebrate. As a trusted resource for navigating the region’s luxury real estate market, Irit Naymark with ONE Sotheby's International Realty is here to guide you through this dynamic season, offering personalized expertise and guidance every step of the way.
Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix
Formula 1 fans can watch their favorite drivers—like Lewis Hamilton, who decamped to team Ferrari for the 2025 race season—during the Miami Grand Prix (Hard Rock Stadium, May 2-4). In addition to luxury clubs, including the Paddock, the 72, and Casa Tua, the fourth annual event debuts single-day Grandstand tickets as well as three-day, general-entry Campus Passes for enhanced race track and concessions access.
