MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – In a blow to the tourism industry in Miami Beach, Mayor Dan Gelber said Thursday large crowds of spring breakers are not welcome during COVID-19 pandemic. City Manager Jimmy Morales declared a state of emergency and will not be granting any permits for special events, Gelber said. “To the extent that anybody can declare spring break is over, it is over this year,” Gelber said. The Miami Beach Pride 2020 is postponed. City officials are working on finding strategies to help soften the blow on local businesses.
