Weekend PE

Experience a small piece of Cuban culture at Carnival Miami. The festival brings a Carnival-styled celebration to the streets of Little Havana in Miami, and the event is host to concerts, races, food competitions, art and much more. The two-week celebration is one of the nation's largest street festivals, so don't miss out on the fun.

No zoological park offers an experience like Jungle Island. This park offers a couple of tours where you can actually touch animals like lemurs and the world's only tame Cassowary. Other animal attractions around the park include orangutans, gibbons, African penguins, Caribbean flamingos, alligators, pythons, tigers, and a rare liger.

The James L. Knight Center is another of Miami's multipurpose entertainment and convention venues. Along with events like graduations and business meetings, the convention center hosts theatrical productions and concerts. Luciano Pavarotti was the first to perform at the venue, followed by a variety of artists that include Metallica, Alicia Keys, Shakira, and David Bowie, among many others.
