The Best Things to Do in Miami This Weekend: Aug 24–26

Staying away from the beach this weekend? As red tide makes its way to South Florida, you'd be forgiven for seeking out alternatives while state politicians scramble to fix the mess they let happen in the first place.

If you're looking for a cheap night out, there are plenty of free options, including a concert by Julian Marley & the Uprising in the Design District and a Flaming Classics screening of Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca. And if you were lucky enough to snag tickets before they sold out, Marlins Park's Taco & Beer Festival sounds like the tastiest way to spend a Saturday.

Here's a look at some of the best events happening in Miami over the next few days.
