Sign this petition if you agree that Art Basel Miami Beach should be rescheduled to the first weekend in November versus the first weekend in December! Here are the top reasons why:
1. South Florida needs this tourism more so in November rather than December because the season is just starting and business is slower.
2. The first weekend in December is the tail end of Hanukkah.
3. December is already a popular time for tourism - making hotels, Airbnb's, and car rentals less available.
4. Holiday parties are in full swing so restaurants, catering companies, and event rentals are in high demand and short supply.

Traffic in early dec is a nightmare. Moving it up a month would actually make it possible to get around the city.
DECEMBER IS WAY TOO CROWDED. Hotels are charging ridiculous prices and local business can barely keep up with holiday events.
Agreed 100%
Totally agree with scheduling rationale behind changing the dates.

Makes sense for the local economy. early nov is definitely quieter and shops need the boost more.
