The South Florida music, art & technology festival continues to unite creative communities while providing a unique sensory experience in the heart of Wynwood.

While the beginning of fall marked the end of the festival season for most places in the USA, Miami showed no sign of slowing down as III Points festival celebrated its fifth gathering. III Points festival shifted the summer-time action from Miami’s famed South Beach to its massive 100,000 square foot warehouse complex in Wynwood. The modern, post-industrial aesthetic at Wynwood was the perfect place to showcase cutting-edge musicians along with immersive installations. With its eclectic blend of music and focus upon immersive technology, III Points has steadily grown to become one of the most intriguing festivals on the East Coast.
