Miami Music Week 2026 runs March 23β29 and brings the world's biggest DJs to South Beach for seven days of non-stop music. While Ultra Music Festival dominates the nights, the MMW pool parties are where the real daytime magic happens β think label showcases from Defected, Toolroom, Spinnin' Records, and Drumcode hosted at the most iconic pools in Miami Beach.
π Strawberry Moon at The Goodtime Hotel is the crown jewel of South Beach pool parties. Located at 601 Washington Ave, this Pharrell Williams-designed oasis hosts high-energy house music showcases with a celebrity-filled crowd, champagne showers, and world-class bottle service. Strawberry Moon tickets for MMW sell out fast β expect prices from $50β$150.
π DAER Dayclub at the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood is the biggest venue on the circuit. With festival-grade production and headliners like TiΓ«sto, Kaskade, and Steve Aoki, DAER is where you go for the full dayclub experience. VIP cabanas and tables start at $2,000+ during Music Week.
π¨ National Hotel Miami Beach is famous for its 205-foot infinity pool β the longest in Miami Beach. During MMW, the National hosts marathon pool sessions focused on underground house and techno, with multi-day lineups running Thursday through Sunday. General admission starts around $40.
Most Miami Music Week pool party tickets go on sale in late February to early March. Early-bird pricing typically runs $40β$60 for general admission, but prices spike to $100β$150+ as the event approaches. For groups of 4 or more, booking a VIP table or cabana is often more cost-effective than individual tickets plus bottle minimums at the door.
Pool parties run from approximately 12 PM to 6 PM daily, Thursday through Sunday. Wednesday is typically reserved for industry events and intimate warm-up sets. The best strategy: pick one pool party per day, grab your tickets early, and save your energy for the nightclub afterparties. Most venues are within walking distance or a short ride on Collins Avenue in South Beach.
The dress code at MMW pool parties is resort-chic meets festival. For women: swimsuits, coverups, and stylish sandals. For men: swim trunks and a clean look (no basketball shorts or athletic wear). Most venues require swimwear poolside and allow coverups at the bar. Skip the jeans, boots, and anything you wouldn't wear to a five-star hotel pool. Sunscreen is non-negotiable β you're outdoors for 6+ hours.
