Are you On the List? Ever wonder how to slip past the velvet ropes and into private lounges where supermodels dance on tables and celebrities are livin' large and in charge? Our party patrol shares night life secrets, from what to wear to how to score VIP access. We get celebrities, DJs, club owners and doormen to reveal how you can take full advantage of South Florida's glamorous, sexy club scene.

Micaela Hood: Friends call me Ms. Miami. I'm a veteran South Florida entertainment reporter and celeb spotting is my specialty. I regularly interview A-listers on the red carpet at the Academy Awards, Super Bowls and haute fashions shows. I've even hosted events with Kim Kardashian and Vampire Diaries' Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley. I live the good life on South Beach with my dog and cat, Buffy and Chloe. I love to shop, tan and people-watch on Lincoln Road.

    The Best Parties: Urban Beach Week Edition



    Thousands of visitors will flock to Miami this Memorial Day for Urban Beach Week. Drake, Lil Wayne, Busta Rhymes, Diddy, Trinidad James, Young Jeezy, DJ Khaled, Juelz Santana, NFL champ Bryant McKinnie and Ace Hood are among those hosting parties.

    But before you stack up your cooler and head over the traffic-ridden causeways, keep in mind Miami Beach Police have tightened security this year. There will be license plate readers placed nightly on MacArthur, Julia Tuttle and Venetian causeways, and on Friday, a DUI checkpoint will be enforced on the MacArthur Causeway from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. Saturday. In addition, South Beach's Ocean Drive will be closed to pedestrian traffic only Friday to Tuesday.

    Enjoy the Magic City and stay safe, my fellow club-goers.
