Runway shows
Club Wynwood rents an open-air lot in Wynwood, Miami, where a runway show sets up on a paved walkway of about 15 × 108 ft, with the ~4,000 sq ft thatched structure beside it as covered backstage and its own load-in gate. It is not an official Miami Swim Week venue: it is where the satellite show gets produced.
The runway line is already there
The paved walkway that crosses the site is about 15 ft wide and about 108 ft long per the site plan, from the building door to the south parking lot. It is large slabs with turf joints, flat and step-free: the runway line already exists, with no layout to set out and no ground to level. If the show needs a continuous surface — thin heels, a dolly, camera wheels — or a raised runway, your production builds it on top and the walkway gives it a flat base. The two rows of live palms stand a foot and a half off the slab edge: the 15 ft stay clear and there are about 18 ft between trunks. The figure stays approximate until it is checked against the survey.
The two sides are not the same
Worth knowing before drawing the layout. West of the walkway there is turf and the paved apron along the façade, with the thatched structure behind: that is the side that takes rows of chairs on firm ground. East of it everything is sand, and on it the row of six furnished cabanas, which are fixed and count in the plan: they work as a sofa front row, and anything seated in front of them needs decking. How many rows each side takes is settled at the site visit. Guests come in from the south, where the walkway ends, so the visual end of the runway is the building façade with its door and mural, and the photos at the top of the walk come out with that behind.
Backstage at the runway's edge, load-in through its own gate
The thatched structure sits alongside the southern stretch of the runway, in the south-west corner, its ridge parallel to the walkway: about 54 × 60 ft, ~4,000 sq ft covered including eaves, open on all four sides. It is right at the runway edge, so it works as backstage, hair and makeup or a press area without renting a tent; the visual screen for changing is on your production, because there are no walls. There are two entrances and they do not cross: load-in is off NW 1st Ct to the west, onto the paved strip along the façade, a step from the structure; guests come in off NW 21st Ct to the south. Gate width and the rafters' load rating get measured at the site visit.
Light, rain and the season
A show here runs at dusk, and the site has no house lighting: runway lighting is on your production, and the available power, with its amperage, is confirmed at the site visit. The thatched roof handles straight-down rain; in wind it blows in sideways, so the rain plan should budget sidewalls for the structure. Seated and standing capacity for your layout, curfew, the decibel limit and the restroom count are measured at that same visit and put in writing. On the calendar: the outdoor site takes bookings from October 1, 2026, so the first Swim Week on sale is the 2027 edition; if the show needs a City of Miami special-event permit, the useful conversation starts months ahead.
Who lives and who spends around the site.
Wynwood is not only a mural district: it is a neighbourhood of bars, galleries and shops with its own year-round crowd. These are the figures for the immediate area, the same ones the property is marketed with.
