On My Mind: No Offseason in 2026
Miami loves to pretend it’s immune to seasons. It’s not.
For as long as anyone who actually lives here can remember, the city has run on a familiar rhythm: high season, shoulder season, ghost town. Snowbirds in, snowbirds out. Energy up, energy gone. Hardcore seasonality, no matter how global or glamorous we tell ourselves we are.
But 2026 might be the year that pattern finally breaks.
For the second year in a row, F1 lands in May, anchoring what used to be the start of the slow fade. Then comes something even bigger: the World Cup in June and July, with Miami positioned as the cultural and emotional hub of the Latin world’s biggest moment. That alone rewires the calendar.
So what’s left? August. One hot, sleepy month.
September, traditionally the quietest, is packed with Jewish holidays, schools fully back in session, routines re-established.
One slow month doesn’t make a slow year.
For businesses, this could be the year the numbers surprise you, the year Miami finally behaves like the global city it’s always claimed to be. For people, maybe this is the year you save the travel dollars and stay put. Because when the world comes to you, leaving doesn’t make much sense.

Exodus, Movement of the Rich People (to Miami)
Everyone thought the big migration would be New Yorkers getting pushed out, Mamdani, taxes, density, the usual suspects. But it turns out it was California all along. The real exodus is coming from Silicon Valley, and it’s being led by the people who built the internet as we know it. Google just crossed a staggering $4 trillion valuation, and at the same moment its founders are quietly heading east. Larry Page has already dropped roughly $173 million on two waterfront estates in Coconut Grove, while Sergey Brin has been circling Miami real estate as well. A proposed California wealth tax targeting billionaires was enough to trigger the move.
