It seems that there’s a lot more to Thanksgiving in Miami this year than turkey. This week, every restaurant and lounge will be buzzing with music and entertainment to begin your “turkey day” on the right foot. Places such as Cafeina, STK and the W South Beach are kicking off the holiday early with weeklong parties and events.

Tomorrow, November 23^rd, Cafeina in Wynwood and STK on Miami Beach will both be jump-starting their celebrations. Cafeina will be hosting “Turkey Palooza,” a three day Thanksgiving extravaganza with music by DJ Pres while STK’s “Gray Train” will feature a special performance by Bred Crumbs.

If you just can’t wait until tomorrow, begin your festivities at the W South Beach. Here’s what’s going on at WALL, the hotel’s exclusive lounge:

11/22 – Favela Beach party series with Ruen & DJ RossOne

11/23 – Special pre-Thanksgiving opening with sounds by rising Duth DJ and music producer R3HAB and an opening set by DJ Eye

11/24 – Party Thanksgiving night with DJ Tony G
