Space 14th Anniversary

What does the longest standing club in Miami do to celebrate their milestone 14th anniversary? Bring in legendary DJ/producer Erick Morillo for his first performance since last summer, of course. On Saturday night, you can catch the internationally known talent drop his beats out on the terrace at Space in celebration of the notorious after hours hotspot. Louis Puig, Jesse Perez, Mika Materazzi, Sex Sells, and other heavy hard-hitters will also be pounding out some bangers throughout the night.
