¡Salud! Miami Returns for Its Second Year This October Restaurant and Bar Registration Is Now Open

¡Salud! Miami is back. Now in its second year, the citywide cocktail celebration will return this October with an expanded lineup of drink specials & discounts at bars across the community, events, and neighborhood programming across Miami’s most dynamic bar destinations. Building on the momentum of its inaugural run, the program is now open for Miami’s top bars and emerging hotspots to participate by offering month-long drink deals, memorable nights highlighting expertly made cocktails, and neighborhood adventures.

¡Salud! Miami is an invitation to get out and meet the people who make Miami’s hospitality scene one of the best in the country. Pull up a chair, get to know your bartender, discover a new favorite spot, and experience the craft behind the bars and restaurants that define this city. Whether you are a cocktail enthusiast or prefer something non-alcoholic, ¡Salud! has a place for you. This is about exploring, socializing, and supporting the community, one great drink and one great conversation at a time.

The month-long series continues its mission to support the people and places that make Miami’s hospitality industry special. Guests can visit participating venues on the ¡Salud! website, which offers access to the full bar directory, a guide to featured cocktails, and the complete calendar of events and programming.

Throughout the month, ¡Salud! Miami also provides participating bars and restaurants with educational resources and support, reinforcing the program’s commitment to the people behind the bar, not just the guests in front of it. With affordable options and programming spread across Miami’s most vibrant neighborhoods, there has never been a better reason to get out and support and raise a glass.

For restaurants and bars to participate:

 

“This is our second year, and the energy around ¡Salud! Miami has only grown stronger,” says LP Steele, CEO of POPLIFE. “The first year showed us just how much Miami values its bar community, and this October we are going deeper, wider, and louder. Life’s better with friends, and we want more people at the bar proving it.”

The team behind ¡Salud! remains deeply rooted in Miami’s hospitality landscape: Gabriel Urrutia is a nationally recognized spirits educator and award-winning author known for championing Miami’s bar scene; Joshua Wagner is a seasoned hospitality executive who has launched and advised some of South Florida’s most talked-about venues; and POPLIFE, a brand experience agency headquartered in Miami, has curated some of the city’s most celebrated cultural and nightlife experiences. New this year, ¡Salud! welcomes Seth Browarnik, founder of World Red Eye, as an official partner. Known for capturing Miami’s most iconic moments across hospitality, entertainment, and nightlife for more than two decades, Seth Browarnik brings his signature aesthetic and connections to the series.

“¡Salud! is doing something meaningful and necessary for the industry and the community, and as a Miami native, I am excited for October and the increased awareness this program deserves,” says Seth Browarnik.

As the series returns for year two, several of Miami’s favorite bars are already confirmed to participate, including returning venues such as Sweet Liberty, Café La Trova, Lost Boy, Medium Cool, Gramps Getaway, Dead Flamingo, Fox’s Lounge, Ray’s, Brother’s Keeper, and The Miami Beach EDITION, alongside new additions including Rose Bar at Delano and Vecinos. Additional participating venues, neighborhood activations, and programming will be announced in the coming months.
