World Cup fever has taken over Miami, and you don't need a ticket to Hard Rock Stadium to feel it. Bayfront Park is ground zero for fandom, as FIFA Fan Festival continues welcoming both international specators and locals to cheer on their teams amidst live entertainment, interactive experiences and more. Out on Miami Beach, REEFLINE has transformed Lummus Park into a beachfront installation where art and marine education collide with soccer culture (on view through June 28), while Rhythm of the Cup brings big screen game viewing to the Miami Beach Bandshell, plus a Thievery Corporation Concert on Friday. Downtown, Lost Boy Dry Goods is opening Lost Boy Clubhouse on Flagler Street, a new fan destination launching June 27 for Portugal vs. Colombia with giant screens, a pickup soccer pitch, and stadium-quality sound. Pivoting away from the fútbol frenzy, Wynwood Pride closes out its final weekend with one last round of parties and programming across the arts district, and if you need a break from crowds and noise, the museums are having a moment of their own: PAMM opens Basquiat: Figures, Signs, Symbols on June 25, the largest presentation of the artist's work ever mounted in Florida, while Gary Nader Art Centre offers a different vantage point, pairing Basquiat with Wifredo Lam and a collection of Songye masks and figures from Central Africa.

Curated below is our guide to all the special events and happenings worth checking out over the next seven days, but should you prefer to plan your weeks in advance, here's our curated guide to everything happening in June in Miami. If you're looking specifically for what to do this weekend, we've got a guide for that, too.

We can get behind any food holiday that involves unctuous toro and crisp sake, which is why we're marking our calendars for a weeklong celebration at Pubbelly Sushi. The Sunset Harbour restaurant has partnered with TYKU on a limited-time, five-course menu in honor of National Sushi Day (June 18). The Toro & Sake Experience pairs five dishes showcasing prized fatty tuna belly with TYKU's premium sake expressions, from Junmai and Junmai Ginjo to Junmai Daiginjo. Available June 18 through 25, the experience is priced at $150 per person. Reservations can be made online or by calling the restaurant at 786-353-2724.

NUNA has quietly become a Brickell standout, the rare restaurant where presentation, ingenuity, flavor, and service all operate at the same high level. The Nikkei concept inside Four Seasons Hotel Miami marks its first anniversary on June 25, and they're celebrating the only way Miami knows how: with a raging party. Chef Jaime Pesaque, whose Lima flagship Mayta has landed on The World's 50 Best Restaurants list multiple years running, is flying in to host the celebration alongside chef de cuisine Nazaev Esparza. At $125 per person, the night is a genuine value: live culinary stations, passed bites throughout the evening, a rotation of signature cocktails, and a full wine, beer, and sake program. Guests also get direct interaction with the chefs, live music, and exclusive dishes prepared just for the occasion.

Every Wednesday night, Wynwood's PASTA opens its kitchen for a hands-on pasta-making class led by head chef Luis Jose. The restaurant — brought to life by acclaimed Peruvian chefs Juan Manuel Umbert and Janice Buraschi — blends traditional Italian technique with Peruvian influence, and the class reflects exactly that: you'll mix, knead and shape your own pasta before sitting down to eat what you made. A welcome cocktail, appetizer and dessert round out the evening.

A new storefront in Wynwood looks like a retro convenience store, fully stocked with Cheez-Its, Cheetos, Pringles, Pop-Tarts, and Liquid Death, except every single item on the shelves is actually a sock. ODDMART, created by the licensed accessories brand Odd Sox, turns more than 100 recognizable consumer brands into wearable collectibles housed inside their own authentic packaging. The space goes well beyond shopping with larger-than-life installations, live DJ sets, and rotating surprise activations throughout the run. The exterior carries a custom mural by Miami artist Golden 305, tying the pop-up directly into Wynwood's street art identity. Miami is the second stop after a debut in Tampa, with Las Vegas, New York, and Tokyo still to come.

Downtown's favorite neighborhood bar is rolling out the turf for the World Cup, turning Flagler Street into a blockwide viewing party with giant LED screens, stadium-quality sound, and a pitch out front for pickup games between matches. Located just blocks away from the FIFA Fan Fest, The Lost Boy Clubhouse opens with Portugal vs. Colombia, which is sure to be one of Miami's rowdiest games, and will showcase every match throughout the duration of the tournament. Seating and tables are first come, first served, and there will be plenty of food and specialty drink offerings available, plus other fun fan surprises.

The World Cup is happening in Miami, and Wynwood is fielding its own culinary teams. The Wynwood International Food Festival runs June and July alongside the tournament, turning the neighborhood into a two-month global food trail with 20-plus restaurants each representing a different nation. The entry point is a physical passport — $25, available online or at partner locations — that gets stamped at each stop, with exclusive tasting items priced at $10 or $15 per restaurant. If you upgrade to a shot glass package, you get a welcome shot everywhere you go. The lineup spans Cuba, Japan, Korea, Lebanon, France, India, Italy, Mexico, and the United States, with familiar Wynwood spots like Cerveceria la Tropical, Ghee, Lira Beirut, and Fra Diavolo among the participants. Collect every stamp and you unlock exclusive prizes, not to mention bragging rights for saying you've basically eaten your way through Wynwood.
