This Week in South Florida: Oct. 12–18 (Plus Your Miami Fashion Week Guide)

South Florida is packing a full season into a single week. Knaus Berry Farm is back with its 70th season, III Points takes over Wynwood, the Canes host Florida State, and Miami Fashion Week celebrates its 10th anniversary with runways, a gala and a Latin American designer pop-up in Coral Gables. Here’s everything worth leaving the house for, October 12–18.

Miami Fashion Week Turns 10

Miami Fashion Week (MIAFW) returns October 13–18 for its milestone 10th edition. Billed as the first fashion week dedicated to resort and cruise collections, MIAFW leans into Miami’s role as the bridge between Latin America and the U.S., and this year’s lineup reflects that, with designers from across the region showing at the Freedom Tower, a summit at Miami Dade College and, for the first time, a shoppable pop-up with Stitch Lab on Miracle Mile. Runway passes and gala tickets are available HERE; core runway shows require approved credentials or an RSVP, while the summit and pop-ups are open to the public.
