Two dates and one Saturday
Wekfest Miami prints Sunday 6 December 2026 on its event page, its event information page and the checkout where a guest pays. The Miami-Dade County Fair and Exposition calendar prints the same show at the Fuchs Pavilion on 5 December.
5 December is a Saturday. 6 December is a Sunday.
Saturday 5 December stays in play under both readings. Under the organiser's date, Saturday is the arrival night. Under the venue's date, Saturday is the show day and Friday becomes the arrival night. A rate fence on the wrong night leaves the paying night open.
The nearest beds and the drive
The grounds sit at 10901 SW 24th Street, Miami, FL 33165. Distances below come from OpenStreetMap coordinates read on 19 October 2026 against the fairgrounds point, with drive times from OSRM free-flow routing.
Comfort Suites Miami Kendall at 3901 SW 117th Avenue is the nearest mapped property: 1.96 km straight line, 1.89 miles and 5.9 minutes by road.
Courtyard Miami at Dolphin Mall is 3.71 miles and 9.0 minutes. Hilton Garden Inn at 1695 NW 111th Avenue is 3.91 miles and 9.3 minutes. DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Doral at 10250 NW 19th Street is 3.98 miles and 9.6 minutes.
None of the four carries a Wekfest rate, block or shuttle. The organiser's navigation holds no lodging page. The venue's pavilion page lists nearby parking with no rate. Each property prices its own Saturday from its own inventory.
A Sunday door and a Saturday checkout
The event information page publishes public hours from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM. The event page and the checkout both publish 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Plan against 6 PM.
Entry has three published clocks. Early Access entry starts at 10:00 AM and the page sells it in limited quantities. One general admission block starts at 1:00 PM. A second block gives approximately 12:00 PM, with the box office open from 9:00 AM.
The building runs fully indoors and opens to all ages. The guidelines bar large bags, luggage and musical instruments, and state that every patron is subject to search. The same page grants in and out privileges.
A guest on one Saturday night checks out Sunday morning and reaches the gate before the public door. Bag storage and a late checkout turn that checkout into a show visit.
The rideshare point carries a caveat
The venue's Getting Here page lists five vehicle entrances: SW 112th Avenue and Coral Way, SW 114th Avenue and Coral Way, SW 22nd Street and 117th Avenue, SW 21st Street and 117th Avenue, and SW 107th Avenue and SW 17th Street.
It gives the rideshare instruction as "Please enter at Coral Way and 112th Avenue for rideshare drop-off and pick-up." The handicap drop-off sits in front of the main entrance.
The same page limits its own guidance. It states that the entrances and the rideshare and handicap drop-off locations "are only applicable for the annual Youth Fair and may not apply to Fair Expo Center events throughout the year." Give the guest the Coral Way and 112th Avenue address. Do not promise the gate.
What the pavilion holds after this show
The Fuchs Pavilion measures 49,000 square feet with about 6,920 of published capacity and 23 to 26 feet of ceiling clearance. It carries two food service areas, a show and box office, public restrooms, nearby parking and a covered walkway to Arnold Hall.
The show's own scale figure is over 200 exhibitors. No attendance figure and no vehicle count are published.
The venue's December calendar puts the pavilion back in use on 12 December for the Miami Supreme Holiday Gala from 6:30 PM to midnight, and on 18 December for the MD-PROS Holiday Celebration from 8 AM to 5 PM. Nfinity Championship Events run across Arnold Hall and Reilly Coliseum on 12 and 13 December. A luncheon fills the Blue Ribbon and Carousel rooms on 11 December.
A property that holds the night of 5 December and the night of 12 December serves two different customers one week apart.
