III Points starts next week, and once again Miami can expect one of its signature events to take flight. Being from a different generation \u2014 one allegedly more diligent and less obsessed with carrying a designer metal water bottle everywhere \u2014 I\u2019ve spent the past week listening to artists I\u2019ve never heard of. It\u2019s been fun. It\u2019s also a reminder that III Points remains one of the few Miami events where large numbers of brand-new discoveries still feel possible.<\/p>\n

This year brings two nights, five city blocks, 294 artists, and 13 stages. The festival returns to Mana Wynwood, hopefully not for the last time. One of our more prominent billionaires, Moishe Mana, sold the property to our newest prominent billionaire, Ken Griffin, for a cool billion. Griffin then folded the Wynwood real estate into his newly announced $3 billion commitment to Carnegie Mellon University\u2019s Miami campus \u2014 roughly $2 billion of which is tied directly to the land. In Miami, cultural space is always one billionaire\u2019s mood swing away from disappearing, so let\u2019s hope the $10 million Griffin dropped into potential Governor Byron Donalds\u2019 political committee buys at least a little love for loud music and late nights. Losing the location wouldn\u2019t be surprising, but it would be sad. For now, though, we still get the full sprawl: two nights, five blocks, 294 artists, 13 stages.<\/p>\n

I wish an old head like me could tell you more about those 294 artists, but alas, I\u2019m no longer hip enough to pretend. I know some of the headliners \u2014 throwbacks like Lil\u2019 Kim and Bone Thugs\u2011N\u2011Harmony go way back. I\u2019ve enjoyed Flying Lotus, Men I Trust, Connan Mockasin, Danny Brown, and Parcels, so I\u2019ll try to catch them Friday. Saturday brings Blood Orange, Four Tet, and Tricky. That\u2019s about as far as my knowledge goes.<\/p>\n

Generally, the formula that works best at festivals like this involves what we might call the Ibiza \/ Club Space \/ Berlin \/ Ultra sound. It still works. If that\u2019s you, expect two full days of it.<\/p>\n

Like the constellations surrounding Art Basel, III Points has built its own orbit \u2014 Satellite events stretching across the city, pulling in venues, promoters, and artists eager to ride the wave. It\u2019s a welcome expansion: more rooms, more nights, more chances for Miami\u2019s ever\u2011growing music scene to show off the places, spaces, and people shaping its sound.<\/p>\n

All of this is powered by a trifecta: Insomniac bringing the national muscle, III Points guru David Sinopoli steering the vision, and Club Space + Factory Town supplying the local backbone. It\u2019s a creative arrangement, a practical one, and in Miami, that\u2019s about as good as it gets. Let\u2019s hope it stays intact, because right now, it\u2019s working splendidly.<\/p>\n

So people, grab your makeup, your clothes, your outfits, your designers. I\u2019ll be the Woodstock\u2011generation guy wandering between stages. If you see me, point me toward the Lil\u2019 Kim set and away from anything involving glow sticks.\u00a0<\/p>\n
