Basel madness may be over in South Florida, but that doesn't mean there will be a lull in events between now and the holidays. Some superstars have stayed in town to play concerts this week, including Y100's Jingle Ball at the BB&T Center. This year's iteration of the arena pop showcase includes performances by Khalid, Calvin Harris, and heartthrob Shawn Mendes. But, if you're looking for the local talent, look no further than a performance from up-and-comers City Girls at the Colony Hotel this Friday.

Here's a look at all of these and more of the best concerts in South Florida this week, December 10 through December 16.
