We Invite You to Get Familiar With the Greater Miami & Miami Beach Destination Pledge

The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau and our dedicated partners have committed to the Greater Miami Destination Pledge to ensure peace of mind for visitors traveling to Miami. As we carry out our recovery, our efforts are focused on showcasing the voice of the destination which encompasses its diverse community, people, places, neighborhoods, experiences and, naturally, its weather and sunshine. Our pledge is a commitment to our guests that we will provide a level of comfort that will put travelers at ease while enjoying the destination. We vow to mitigate any risks by achieving proper sanitation standards suggested by the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) and want to make leisure and business travelers, as well as meeting planners aware of our promise in making Miami a clean and safe retreat.

The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau united with our partners including Miami-Dade County, the Greater Miami & The Beaches Hotel Association, the Miami Beach Convention Center, Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation, Taxicab Authority, Uber, Lyft, restaurants and retail outlets. All have guidelines designed to inform and educate guests on optimal sanitation/hygiene practices. Together we can all do our part to make Miami Shine even brighter and offer a better tomorrow to our travel and hospitality industry.
