Miami Beach is set to host a variety of returning and new events in May, all developed to bring the community and visitors experiences set amongst a world-famous landscape. The Hyundai Air & Sea Show will return over Memorial Day Weekend to present “The Greatest Show Above Earth,” taking over the shores of Miami Beach on May 25th and 26th from noon to 6 p.m.
The complimentary show includes the valor, technology and camaraderie of the United States Military alongside dedicated first responder agencies.
