III Points Music, Art, & Technology Festival in Miami has another unforgettable, record-breaking year. For the fifth year in a row, III Points exhibited exponential growth in both the quality of artists, and the quantity of fans; selling out of tickets for 2017. Just like last year, hurricanes are acted as small speed bumps for the festival. But these storms cannot compete with the strong forces instilled in the people of Miami and III Points. Headlining the festival were Gorillaz for their first time in Miami, and their only show in Florida. Damon Albarn and the group provided a truly memorable start to the festival’s Friday evening with a jam-packed setlist of new and old tracks. Other headliners like the xx, Mark Ronson and Kevin Parker, Nicolas Jaar, Bonobo, and Kaytranada, all kept the festival attendees moving into the wee hours of the morning. This is city that never sleeps when it comes to music. Here is a quick photo recap of the festival in hopes of enticing you to travel to south Florida next year for another great year of this ever-expanding festival.
