How it works
How Art Week with a chauffeur works
- 01
Reserve your days early
Tell us your arrival flight and the days you want a car. Vehicles for Art Week sell out weeks ahead, especially Escalades and the S-Class for evenings.
- 02
Fairs, galleries, dinners
Book by the hour and the chauffeur stays with you: Convention Center in the morning, Untitled and Scope on the beach, Design District galleries, dinner in Wynwood and the parties after.
- 03
Closures handled
Street closures around the Convention Center and surge pricing after midnight are the week’s two headaches. Your car waits where it can and you walk out to it.
Miami Art Week
The fairs and where they are
Art Basel is the anchor, but Art Week spreads across Miami Beach, Downtown, Wynwood and the Design District. Distances are short; traffic is not.
Art Basel Miami Beach
Miami Beach Convention Center, 1901 Convention Center Drive. Public days December 4–6, 2026, with VIP preview days just before. Drop-off on Washington Avenue or Convention Center Drive depending on closures.
Untitled Art and Scope
Tented fairs on the sand at Ocean Drive and 12th Street (Untitled) and 8th Street (Scope). Five minutes from the Convention Center by car.
Design Miami and NADA
Design Miami in Pride Park beside the Convention Center; NADA Miami at Ice Palace Studios in Downtown, about 20 minutes across the causeway.
Art Miami and CONTEXT
One Herald Plaza on Biscayne Bay, Downtown, 15 minutes from the Convention Center.
Design District and Wynwood
Gallery openings, brand events and dinners most evenings. Wynwood Walls and the Rubell Museum are 20–25 minutes from Miami Beach.
Evening parties
Hotels on Collins Avenue, Faena, the Bass and private events. An hourly car means leaving the moment you are ready.
