Mana Wynwood Convention Center — Attraction in Miami

Hahahahaha so unfortunate, dropped 90€, with ticket & merch.. go into Rave.. DANCE LIKE A CHAMPION & REALLY ENJOY EVERYTHING ABOUT THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE.. Especially the kind people at the merch booth as well as the wonderful bartender that I was about to not only purchase just a sprite.. I was going 2 tip the wonderful bartender working really hard all the way 2 the right 2 the end of tha bartender sectional.. as we’re in the middle of rapport , “as I’ve been in the service Industry a long time so I enjoy being around other people who enjoy the same line of work I’ve come 2 know & love.. serving other people.. with pure intentions of curating enjoyment in their clientele’s heart mind body & soul.. that’s what it’s all about” we’re Rudely interrupted by an older black gentleman with all gold shlugs, & a beanie who came all the way over to instigate once more an already resolved issue in which earlier I accidentally went through the wrong entrance as there was no body walking out & it seemed like another way in as I had my ticket & was just skating for 15 Minutes from my car to enjoy the night.. he INSISTS in listening to him as he comes closer as if he’s in my ear becoming more & more verbally combative in which I am in the middle of not only a wonderful conversation with someone who’s trying to earn her keep & provide a wonderful experience to a client.. BUT A POINT OF SALE.. WHERE MY CARD IN IN MY HANDS.. HIS EMOTIONAL RESPONSE PREVENTED MONETARY GAIN (LAUGHABLE BUT INEXPLICABLY INEFFECTIVE) I finally just ask him to kindly shoooo away from me & I have opened up 4 traditional southern Sicilian & Neapolitan so hand gestures are just part of how I communicate, beyond that had just been dancing solid for 20 minutes straight, as to why I was ordering a refreshing beverage 2 quench the created thirst.. he proceeds to amplify the situation into something heinous, causing me to get kicked out of a club that I’ve done nothing but uplift, with being nice to staff, other party goers, concessionaires.. him along with another younger taller blacker gentleman coerced it seems to be some fabricated story as if I had snuck into this establishment when I went wrongfully unknowingly into the wrong entrance, spoke with the same black kid initially when I walked In, they said go through the front which I had done.. not only did my skate board get left inside, my Tommy Bahamas shirt I had put on railing to air dry, one of my favorite classic shirts was refused to be brought out to me. This negligence is very unfortunate for this wonderful establishment, they didn’t even let Me finish buying my drink so the bartender not only got thrown into an uncomfortable situation as a women just trying to do her job, she lost out on a 180% gratuity tip, & all the rest of the drinks I was going 2 continue 2 keep purchasing, as well as my friends who I was going to met with there who I was going 2 purchase drinks & merch for. Big loss for this venue as If nothing is done to right this wrong I will make it a point to drag this place any chance I get.

I rarely venture out & now I’m taking more time since now working around Brickell area into new vistas & vibes , I love dancing, I HATE LOSSING MONEY THOUGH… I lost money & valuable time, & the sudden change was so bittersweet as I thought I was going to have an unforgettable experience I’d come to enjoy for years to come.

I know this place now 2 have really bad eggs who spoil things4 everyone else, & beyond all of that, you loose money.. i even extended my hand out to gentlemen in reconciliation and apologized in front of all his piers. Asking please 2 just allow me to go back inside & enjoy myself as i wanted to get back on the dance floor more than anything else !

Mana Wynwood strong arming guests over emotional reactions & no real proof of any real wrong doing is absolutely reprehensible & most definitely affecting consumer relations, inner personal work relationships, & above all else the...

VEGAN BLOCK PARTY well, where do we start... This was the best 18 dollars ever spent. The vendors and their products really made this a successful venue, I think they should have this more often, at least 3 times a year here in Miami. We got awesome free samples and goody bags, tasted just about everything and a few stand out like the cheesecake lady and her daughters they were so wonderful, I have never in my life had a better cheesecake than theirs. Was the bomb.!!my favorite was the blueberry and keylime. Cleveland's vegan icecream so many good and beautiful flavors, Cleveland is a known legend he was part of Jaxon's icecream parlor in Dania so he sure knows what it takes to make the best icecream, but his is vegan 🥰 We also had coconut rice, pineapple and cauliflower nugets with grilled pineapple, it was very good although the rice did not taste at all like coconut instead very blend and for 16 dollars I think my expectations were way higher. Presentation made the dish stand out for sure but flavor could be better I think cilantro or chopped green onions as garnish will help tremendously besides adding coconut cream or milk with toasted coconut to the rice. All the juice vendors really hit the spot, tasted all the juices and teas and they were all great. The casheeze spread was out of this planet amazing!! The fruit stand was pretty good too, they just needed to have them coconuts in a deep container with lots of ice. Overall this was a great experience loved it. The pizza looked delicious and the vegan cuban food stand had very good turn out, so did the vegan hotdog stand, I think for the most part all vendors were great...

I've been to this event space several times. Twice during Art Basel and once in March for the BMW Mini Vacation driving event. However, this Jaguar Electrifies Miami event truly transformed this enormous venue to a contemporary nightclub themed auto show to launch the new I-PACE.

Outside, there was track course for guests to test drive the I-PACE. The instructors really encouraged drivers to push the limits of this electric car. It was a blast! Inside, the lobby entry featured a gigantic illuminated grill inspired by the ones on Jaguar cars. Once passed the entry, the host took us to a maze opening to several car displays and leading to the lounge. It felt like we were walking forever so I didn't realize the scale of this venue until now. At last, we reached the lounge and there was another 5 car display plus an interactive section featuring futuristic gadgets brought by Wired magazine. There's also plenty of seating, a bar and gorgeous food displays including The Salty Donut, cookies, charcuterie with meat or veggies and a coffee station.

It was well organized and Mana was the perfect venue to accommodate this hospitality / launch event. A lot of space to move around, A/C was cold, acoustics sounded great and lights installation was awesome. Plus the restrooms were...
