Tickets for the Walls cost about $12 for adults, online or at the gate, and large bags are not allowed. Wynwood is not on the Metromover, so take an Uber from downtown.
About this place
Wynwood was a district of warehouses and garment factories north of downtown Miami when the developer Tony Goldman began buying buildings there in the 2000s. In 2009 he invited street artists from around the world to paint the walls of a group of them, and Wynwood Walls was born. The murals change every year or two, as new artists are invited to paint over the old.
The Walls themselves are a gated, ticketed garden of murals, with an indoor gallery and a shop. Outside the gates the whole neighbourhood carries the idea on: almost every wall, shutter and car park for blocks around is painted, and those you can wander for free.
Wynwood is also full of bars, coffee shops and restaurants, so it works as well in the evening as by day, and it was where we spent our first evening in Miami.
Come for the streets as much as the Walls. The murals outside the gates are free and just as striking, especially in the golden hour.
