South Florida, get ready for an unforgettable celebration! Miami-Dade County Vice Chairman Kionne L. McGhee proudly presents Jazz in the Heights: America-N-Miami 2026, returning Saturday, November 7, at Zoo Miami with an electrifying lineup featuring nationally acclaimed R&B recording artists Kelly Price and Lyfe Jennings.

With more than 125,000 attendees welcomed throughout its history, Jazz in the Heights has become one of South Dade's most anticipated community events, bringing together thousands of residents for an extraordinary celebration of music, culture, and unity.

But this is more than a concert — it's a celebration with a purpose.

"We're honoring our veterans, celebrating our young people, supporting our small businesses, supporting our Community Based Organizations, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. This is what community looks like, and everyone is invited to be part of it." 

Hosted by recording artist Gia Wyre and DJ Nasty 305, America-N-Miami 2026 promises an exciting afternoon and evening filled with outstanding entertainment, community pride, and heartfelt recognition of America's heroes.
