Miami is totally in its prime come springtime. Tentpole events like Ultra Music Festival and the Miami Grand Prix keep things bumpin’, temps are pleasant and our Miami Heat and Florida Panthers entertain with playoff pushes.

Your options include a most tranquil seaside escape in Costa Rica, Europe’s biggest design spectacle, a renowned scotch festival, cherry blossoms—and how about an epic party in the dark on one of Australia’s most badass islands?
