Luckily, North Miami\u2019s NoMi Night Market offers a cooler option by shifting the festivities to the evening. Families can enjoy a rotating selection of food trucks, local vendors, live music, and a dedicated picnic area for a perfectly low-key night. While the open-air layout and snack options are a hit for toddlers and young children, the live music performances make this an ideal weekend hangout for teens, too. 5 p.m. at the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami, 770 NE 125 St., North Miami; 305-895-9801; <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/northmiamifl.gov\/Calendar.aspx?EID=5806\">northmiamifl.gov<\/a>.
