The Scoop: South Florida | March 2025

JILL PENMAN March 11, 2025

March roars like a lion all month long throughout South Florida. The region proudly hosts several world-class events from the state’s premier tennis tournament to luxury concours experience ModaMiami (see our February Scoop for details about the latter). ONE Sotheby’s International Realty invites you to partake in these magnificent offerings as well as other events such as elite equestrian competitions, a superyacht display and a decorator show house for charity.

 

MIAMI OPEN

The Miami Open, Florida’s biggest annual tennis tournament, returns to Hard Rock Stadium from March 16-30. This year marks its 40th anniversary with stellar matches between many of the sport’s top players as well as new experiences such as the inaugural Publix Padel Cup from March 27-30. Reserve VIP seating from suites to luxury seating and dine around at Ella’s Oyster Bar, Novecento and Omakai.
