Miami Art Week Without the Gridlock
For one week in early December, the art world lands on two islands connected by causeways that were full in November. Art Week isn't about distance — Miami Beach to Wynwood is seven miles — it's about timing.
The geography problem
- Basel proper lives at the Convention Center on the Beach; satellite fairs (Untitled, Scope, NADA) dot the sand and the mainland; Wynwood and the Design District hold the parties.
- The MacArthur and Julia Tuttle causeways jam from 4pm — a 20-minute hop becomes an hour at gallery-dinner time.
- Parking on the Beach functionally disappears. Valet queues at the big hotels run 45 minutes on peak nights.
How collectors actually move
One chauffeured SUV on hourly, all day: fairs in the morning, the car holds your purchases while you lunch, mainland galleries before sunset, and a driver waiting outside dinner when the night's third stop gets decided at the table. Koast in Miami →
Common questions
How do you get around Miami during Art Basel?
A scheduled black car with a chauffeur who knows causeway timing beats rideshare surge during Art Week. Pickups are pre-set so you make every fair, dinner, and party on time.
Does pricing surge during Art Basel and Miami Art Week?
No. Koast is flat-rate, so the busiest week of the Miami calendar costs the same per route as any other — no surge between the beach and the mainland.
Can you keep a car on standby for fair-hopping?
Yes. An hourly booking holds the same car and chauffeur all evening, so you can move between Basel, the satellite fairs, and late-night events without re-booking.
Seven miles, zero stress.
