"ZeyZey, a mostly outdoor venue in Little River, is doing a lot of things. There are a couple bars and a few food vendors scattered around the space, which is essentially a giant house. But the reason it's on this guide is because it's a great place to dance. There’s a stage for live music, and a DJ booth outside as well as in the living room for late-night dance parties. As it gets later, dancing intensifies, and it’s a really fun place to spend the night. There’s usually a ticket or RSVP required for entry, so check ZeyZey’s Instagram for a link to that." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer
"Miami has never had fewer options for live music, which is why ZeyZey is less about the drinks and more about the live cumbia, funky DJ sets, and hypnotic dance music that gets the body shaking like a Nutribullet. Sometimes the concerts are free, but if not, tickets are usually a reasonable $12 to $45. From Thursday to Saturday, the mostly outdoor venue fills up with shy head-bobbers and confident dancers. There’s usually a food vendor, and it’s often The Wolf Of Tacos. They shred meat from a trompo on the front patio, which is ideal for a dance break and an al pastor moment." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
"ZeyZey is like Space for millennials. The Little River music venue is booking an absolute who’s who of your 2010s iTunes library: Santigold, Future Islands, Peter Bjorn and John. So, naturally, it’s become the spot for people in their 30s to give the middle finger to their 10:45pm bedtime. You’ll see that crowd fighting yawns while nodding at former work colleagues on the way to the bathroom. But even on nights when early aughts nostalgia isn’t on the menu, people of all ages who don’t want to go anywhere near an actual club dress up and flock to ZeyZey’s backyard. People who miss The Wynwood Yard Skinny jeans you refuse to part with" - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, julia malave
"ZeyZey is special. There’s nothing like this music venue/cocktail bar/outdoor food hall in Miami, which is maybe why everyone here seems to be smiling like they just found $100 in their pocket. But ZeyZey is more useful than $100, because it’s a rare versatile space that serves many social functions. During the day, they’ll host events like yoga or the Little River Flea, a great market where you can bond with strangers over vintage t-shirts you're both thinking about buying. At night, you can come here to dance and watch live music. And unlike so many Miami nightlife spots, it’s not weird to come alone. There’s enough to keep you occupied until you strike up a conversation with the person who you’ll save in your phone as “Kevin Seems Like A Cool Guy.”" - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino
"ZeyZey, a mostly outdoor venue in Little River, is doing a lot of things. There are a couple bars serving wine and frozen drinks. About four food vendors (including the excellent Maíz Project) operate from little huts scattered around the space, which is essentially a giant house. There’s a stage for live music, and a DJ booth in the living room for late-night dance parties. Before the sun sets, you might see some families with small children running around. But as the night goes on, dancing intensifies, and it’s a really fun place to spend the night (whether or not you partake in said dancing). There’s usually a ticket or RSVP required for entry, so check ZeyZey’s Instagram for a link to that." - ryan pfeffer
