Coconut Grove Arts Festival
The gates open at 10:00 a.m. each day of the festival. On Saturday and Sunday gates close at 6:00 p.m. On Monday gates close at 5:00 p.m. Tickets are $15 per person at the gates(as of 2018), but can be purchased online ahead of time for a small discount. Kids 12 and under are free and Coconut Grove residents in the 33133 zip code may purchase a $5 admission ticket. (Keep in mind that it is one ticket per person per day and that you will need a valid state issued ID - 1 ticket per ID.)
- You can take the Metrorail to the Coconut Grove Station and then either walk to S. Bayshore Drive or take the 249 bus. I would recommend the bus. It is roughly a 20-minute walk (usually in the sun) and you do have to cross U.S.1, which can be tough if you have little kids with you.
- You can ride your bike and leave it at one of two free bike valet stations, located at the top of McFarlane Road (near CocoWalk).
- You can take an Uber/Lyft, but rates will likely be at a premium during this busy weekend.
- You can drive. While there are plenty of parking options, be sure to check the parking map below and pack a little bit of patience.
If you are bringing little ones, know that the crowds are pretty thick and maneuvering a stroller can be difficult; however, if your kids aren’t used to walking, your arms will thank you for bringing one. There is a terrific kid-friendly and educational Family Zone that combines interactive fun and education for the youngest art aficionados. It is located right in front of Dinner Key Marina, at Regatta Park.
