Riding Waves of Fun at the South Florida Fair

Rollercoasters of Laughter, Oceanic Wonders and Culinary Delights: An insider’s look at the South Florida Fair’s Immersive Water-Themed Fiesta!

January 20th, 2024

Dive into the aquatic wonders of the South Florida Fair, where the thrill of the sea met a tidal wave of entertainment for all ages! As attendees strolled through the fairgrounds, they were swept away by the immersive exhibits and interactive activities centered around the water-related theme.

The partnership with the Palm Beach County Film & Television Commission and The Palm Beaches TV took visitors on a mesmerizing journey with an underwater 3D projection experience that was nothing short of cinematic magic. From the sea lion splash show to the live shark encounter attraction, each experience was a splash of excitement and a chance to get up close with the ocean’s incredible inhabitants.

But the fun didn’t stop there! Attendees braced themselves for the dueling pirates high dive comedy show that combined daring acrobatics with swashbuckling humor. It was a spectacle that left everyone on the edge of their seats and then had them rolling with laughter.

If a break from the action was needed, fairgoers glided over to the “Ice in Paradise” ice skating shows, a chilly escape that left them in awe. And not to worry; the fair had everyone covered with a variety of rides that promised to thrill and delight. Transitioning seamlessly from heart-pounding excitement to the tantalizing aromas of the food vendors scattered throughout the fairgrounds.

Speaking of treats, let’s talk about the mouthwatering delights that made the fair a culinary carnival! Angela’s surprisingly tasteful Dill Pickle Pizza was a surreal sensation that couldn’t be missed. But, Angela’s wasn’t alone as the fair welcomed the return of Cider Donuts and the massive Fluffy’s Donuts along with the classic comfort of Roasted Corn and Kettle Corn. While I didn’t have room this year, a welcomed main course is the Butcher Boys’ London Broil steak sandwich and The Purple Shrimp’s Gumbo!

Now, onto the fair’s entertainment lineup – a diverse mix of laughs and gasps! From daily comedy hypnotist shows to mind-bending illusions by an escape artist, the fair kept the excitement alive. Transitioning seamlessly to five stages that hosted an eclectic array of music and entertainment acts that catered to every taste.

Also, returning were the heartwarming petting zoos, plus the family-friendly Cowboy Circus with Danny Grant and the ever-popular Show-Me Swine Racers aka the Pig Races. It was a nostalgic nod to the past with Yesteryear Village’s activities, contests, and a bustling marketplace for arts and crafts.

So, whether attendees were thrill-seekers, foodies, or just looking for a good time, the South Florida Fair was a rollercoaster of fun, entertainment and flavors. They immersed themselves in the water-themed wonderland and didn’t miss out on the laughter, excitement, and delicious memories that awaited.

Luli Fama Launches Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Swimwear Collection in Miami

Published

on

Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.


 August 20, 2026

Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.

South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.

The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.

On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.

Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection

Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.

Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.

The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.

We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.

Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.

It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.

Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami

There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.

In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.

A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.

Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.

Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.

The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.

Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall

Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.

The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.

Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.

Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar

Fashion is only part of the experience.

For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.

Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.

The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.

Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.

The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.

A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home

For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.

Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.

Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.

And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.

After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.

Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
