Clubs and music venues on and around Ocean Drive, South Beach are the center of Urban Beach Week's activities.
Urban Beach Week is a hip-hop festival held in Miami's South Beach over the Memorial Day weekend since the 2000s.[1] Urban Beach Week has been likened to a de facto continuation of Freaknik's cultural activities.[2] The event has become known for its over-the-top parties and fashions.[3]
The events of Urban Beach Week are typically spread over five days.[4] The city does not sponsor the event and there is no one organizer. Instead, it is a weekend of rolling performances in private venues.[5]
