You may be a Broward or Palm Beach County die-hard, but this is the one week each year where you're guaranteed to have more fun if you head south on I-95 toward the 305. Art Basel is here, and with it comes plenty of live music and sets by the world's top DJs. From Claptone, to Ultra Nate, and even Jazzy Jeff, Basel is hosting South Florida's biggest party of the year. Just remember to come back up for St. Paul and the Broken Bones at Culture Room on Friday for an evening of soul and mind-blowing vocals.
