Miami Music Week, the hottest week long music event for fans and industry people in Florida. Discover our experience from our first MMW!

As we wrote in our Miami Music Week 2018 preview blog, Miami becomes the hottest destination in Florida for a week. Inclduing Ultra Music Festival which turned 20 this year… but we didn’t expect a great, spectacular surprise: the Swedish House Mafia reunion on the last day of the annual event.

This year music week took place from March 20th to 25th and, alongside hundreds of thousands of people, we were there for various events to cover plus meet our fans and industry friends.

1. MK Presents Area 10

On Thursday which was our first day in Miami Beach, we covered Marc Kinchen (MK) Presents Area 10 at National Hotel, the Detroit house icon played alongside Camelphat, Will Clarke and more. Plus special guest Diplo which was an unexpected appearance.

If you’re a music lover, you surely know that in March Miami becomes the world capital of electronic music, with Miami Music Week: the hottest weeklong event in Florida and around the country. This year the music week will take place from 20th to 25th March. Each year, hundreds of thousands of people come to the city to dance in almost 300 events: the most important, Ultra Music Festival, is a three-day outdoor concert that occurs on the weekend of the music week and this year will turn 20.

How Was It Born?

Before MMW, there was Winter Music Conference. WMC, established in 1985 and active for 32nd consecutive years, is the largest longstanding EDM industry gathering of its kind in the world. During WMC, music enthusiasts, artists, DJ’s and industry delegates from 70 countries converge on Miami Beach for a concentrated schedule of seminars and workshops.

Miami Music Week has been formed in 2011, when Winter Music Conference split up and changed its dates from the 3rd week of March to the 1st week, meanwhile Ultra decided to continue on the 3rd week. This resulted in two different types of events: WMC for the music industry (panel and IDMAs), meanwhile Miami Music Week as the “fun week” (performance and parties).

What To Expect in 2018?

This year, unfortunately, there has been no official announcement about the WMC.
