Three days of competitive matches — Friday through Sunday, November 13–15 — with a celebrity game on Saturday afternoon, a charity game on Sunday, and evening events anchored at The Setai.

Miami Beach Polo has been one of the city's most distinctive sporting events for over a decade — polo on the sand, with the ocean as a backdrop and The Setai as the social anchor. The format is accessible: the Retail Village and grounds are open to the public, the matches are fast and easy to follow, and the atmosphere is genuinely festive without being exclusionary. The celebrity game on Saturday and the charity game on Sunday add a layer of spectacle that makes the full weekend worth planning around.
VIP tent access and separately ticketed evening events are available through the official Miami Beach Polo website. The Setai après polo events on Friday and Sunday are open — no ticket required. Plan for the Saturday night party in the VIP tent if you want the full experience; it runs to 11 PM with live entertainment.

The Convergence: November in Miami
November is the month Miami stops pretending it is not the most interesting city in the country. The weather breaks. The calendar stacks. The polo ponies arrive on South Beach. Olivia Rodrigo plays two nights. Shakira closes the month at Kaseya. Miami Book Fair takes over Wolfson Campus.
