NHL All-Star Beach Festival – RECAP
Sun, Sand, and Slapshots: NHL’s All-Star Beach Festival in Fort Lauderdale Thrills Hockey Fans!
February 3rd, 2023
Just before the 2023 Honda NHL All-Star Game at the FLA Live Arena in Sunrise, home of the Florida Panthers, hockey fans were treated to an exhilarating experience at the NHL All-Star Beach Festival in the picturesque city of Fort Lauderdale. Thanks to Truly Hard Seltzer, the festival was a resounding success, drawing in enthusiasts of all ages for a three-day celebration of the beloved sport.
Unlike the main game, this festival was completely free and open to the public, making it a family-friendly affair that hockey fans had been eagerly anticipating. From the moment the gates opened, attendees were welcomed by an array of hockey-interactive games and attractions, immersing them in the spirit of the sport they cherished. One of the main highlights was the NHL’s new United by Hockey Mobile Museum, which allowed visitors to delve into the history and legacy of the NHL.
The festival also boasted an impressive lineup of special appearances, including current NHL All-Stars and legendary NHL Alumni such as the esteemed Hall of Famers, Paul Coffey and Denis Potvin. Fans had the unique opportunity to meet their idols, get autographs, and even take pictures with the most revered trophy in sports—the Stanley Cup®. It was an awe-inspiring moment for many, as they stood before the gleaming Cup, a symbol of triumph and achievement.
Amidst the festivities, there were entertaining events that added a touch of fun and humor to the occasion. A lively Mascot tug-of-war brought out laughter from the crowd, while a dazzling Hockey Circus Show featuring the charismatic PAZ enthralled both young and old alike.
As Nick, the VP of NHL Events, welcomed attendees, he couldn’t help but express his pride in what they had accomplished. The beautiful beach setting of Fort Lauderdale provided the perfect backdrop for the festival, and the atmosphere was electric with excitement. The idea of combining hockey with the serene beach environment was a stroke of genius, and it truly created a memorable experience for everyone involved.
Nick and his team had put immense effort into bringing this unique event to life. Originally planned for 2021, they faced challenges along the way, but their collaboration with the City of Fort Lauderdale made it all possible. The result was a spectacular beach festival that had people raving about it for years to come.
The festival wasn’t just about fun and games; it held a deeper meaning for many. Hockey brought families together, creating a beautiful passing of the torch across generations. In the Franklin sports Kid Zone, children and parents bonded over their shared love for the sport, taking on challenges like the ski pop challenge and competing in the ever-popular skee ball game. The classics like the hardest shot and accuracy challenge were also present, and the young and young-at-heart alike tried their hand at these exciting activities.
Throughout the weekend, the stars of the hockey world graced the event, inspiring and captivating fans. From current All-Stars to legendary Hall of Famers and NHL Alumni, the presence of these icons made the festival even more special.
The turnout and the overwhelming positive response from the fans made it clear that this Beach Festival was a tremendous success. Nick was asked whether the event could return in the future, and he responded with enthusiasm, stating they would love to come back to this stunning setting every year. However, the decision ultimately rested in the hands of others, yet the possibility of returning to Fort Lauderdale filled him with hope and excitement.
And so, the 2023 NHL All-Star Beach Festival in Fort Lauderdale became an unforgettable chapter in hockey history. The sun, the sand, and the sport merged harmoniously, creating magical moments and memories that would forever be cherished by hockey enthusiasts worldwide. As the sun set on the last day of the festival, the promise of returning to this idyllic location in the future lingered in the hearts of all who had experienced its magic.

Luli Fama Turns Dadeland Mall Into a Tropical Playground With Its VIP Grand Opening
Champagne, bold bikinis, glowing colors, and a whole lot of Luli Babe confidence
November 7, 2025
Luli Fama just opened its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall and the VIP launch felt like a tropical celebration. From the moment guests arrived, the energy was bright, bubbly, and pure Miami. Champagne was poured all night, the small bites were delicious, and gift bags were waiting at the door to send everyone home smiling.
The boutique itself is stunning. Every rack bursts with tropical color. Bikinis shimmer in sunset shades. Resort sets float on the hangers like they are already dreaming of a beach vacation. It is one of those stores that you can wander through forever because each piece feels fresh, playful, and ready for your next escape.
Luli Fama is a Latin owned brand loved worldwide for its flattering fit and vibrant, confident style. Their motto, “celebrating a passionate lifestyle one bikini at a time,” came to life in every corner of the boutique. Guests tried on pieces that made them feel strong, sexy, and ready for summer at any moment of the year.
The brand’s focus on fit is what makes it stand out. With more than 30 years of experience, Luli Fama has perfected patterns for many different body types. They know how to blend comfort, support, and style into one look. That kind of precision comes from their unique production process.
Luli Fama is the only designer swim brand with its own in house production team in Colombia, and their factory is a huge point of pride. Many of the artisans who sew, cut, and assemble each piece are women who have built long, stable careers with the company. The brand is dedicated to providing high quality jobs, skill development, and a safe, supportive workplace for its team. It is a place where craftsmanship is treated with respect and where women can support their families through steady, dignified work. Every bikini, every resort set, every gold plated detail is handmade by people who truly know their craft.
That craftsmanship was easy to feel at the event. The European fabrics were soft and luxurious. The hardware sparkled. The finishes were flawless. Even guests who were just browsing could tell the pieces were made with care, not mass produced in a rush.
Throughout the night, the Luli team brought incredible warmth. They helped guests find their perfect fits, shared styling tips, and created a friendly, festive atmosphere. The grand opening felt less like a store launch and more like a celebration of women, color, culture, and confidence.
Luli Fama’s newest boutique is officially open at Dadeland Mall, 7535 N Kendall Dr, Miami, FL 33156, right by the Apple Store and a couple doors down from Pura Vida. If you love bold swimwear, glowing prints, and beautifully crafted pieces that make you feel amazing, this spot needs to be on your list.

Wynwood Art Walk and Fashion Night Out
From live murals to fashion fueled pop ups this Art Walk is wild colorful and absolutely not a stay at home night
November 6, 2025
Wynwood is gearing up for another huge Art Walk, and this time it comes with a fashion twist. On Saturday, November 8, from noon to ten, the neighborhood turns into a giant open-air celebration of art, music, and style. If you love wandering into galleries you have never heard of or discovering an artist painting a mural in the middle of the street, this is one of those days when Wynwood feels completely alive.
This month, Art Walk is teaming up with Fashion Night Out, which means more energy, more creative people, and a whole lot more to see. Fashion Night Out is a ticketed experience with panels, live music, and cocktails, while the regular Art Walk remains totally free and open to anyone who wants to explore. It is a choose-your-own-adventure kind of day, and both vibes fit right into Wynwood’s colourful personality.
The whole district is putting on a show. You can walk a single block and bump into a new exhibition a fashion pop up or an artist painting right in front of you. It is the kind of event where you will probably arrive planning to stay for an hour, and then suddenly it is sunset and you are still wandering around with a cafecito in hand.
There are tons of spots to check out but here are a few highlights you can easily wander between throughout the afternoon
Wynwood Walls is free and has a DJ and a bar so it is always a good starting point. Wyn317 is hosting a solo show by Louiedology. The Museum of Graffiti has live spray painting and a video premier with X SQUARE O which sounds very Miami in the best way. Goldman Global Arts is unveiling two new exhibitions. ARTXSPACE Paradox Museum and Fun Dimension are offering discounted admission so if you have ever wanted to try those immersive shows this is your chance.
As the sun goes down the live artists take over. Diana Didi will be at Panther Coffee from five to eight. Ivan Roque will be at Pitusa and Luis Ville will be at Society Wynwood during the same hours. The whole district feels like a walking gallery with music drifting from every corner.

Expect a lot of people a lot of art and a lot of personality. The mix of designers muralists street performers and fashion lovers makes this one of the most entertaining Art Walks of the year. Whether you are coming for the galleries or you simply want to get lost in Wynwood for a few hours it is a great night to do it.

The Queens Are Home: R House Wynwood Glitters with Athena Dion and Juicy Love
Yas Queen: Athena Dion and Juicy Love Light Up R House Wynwood
October 12, 2025
Friday night’s Yas Queen show at R House Wynwood was the kind of evening that reminds you why Miami nightlife has its own heartbeat. Hosted by Athena Dion and Juicy Love, the show brought the perfect blend of laughter, glamour, and live entertainment to a packed house that was ready to celebrate.
Athena Dion was sensational. She commanded the stage with her signature confidence, quick wit, and effortless connection with the crowd. Every line landed, every moment sparkled, and her presence tied the night together. She has the rare ability to make a full room feel like an intimate party, and you can tell the audience adores her. Juicy Love complemented her perfectly with humor, charm, and dynamic choreography that kept the energy high from start to finish. Together, they created a performance that felt joyful, polished, and completely alive.
At halftime, the spotlight opened up to the audience as a few guests were invited to strut their stuff on stage. The crowd cheered them on while Athena hyped them up from the sidelines, turning the moment into a mini runway that had everyone smiling, clapping, and living for the fun of it.
Before the show, I ordered the Miami Spice menu with unlimited drinks for only $60, and it was an experience in itself. The guacamole, tuna tartare, octopus, and burger were all outstanding, each dish bursting with flavor and freshness. We ended with coconut ice cream, creamy and tropical, the perfect finish to a vibrant meal. The drinks flowed freely, the service was impeccable, and the entire dinner set the mood for the night ahead.
By the time the final number hit, the room was glowing with applause and laughter. It was more than a drag show. It was community, artistry, and celebration all rolled into one unforgettable night.
