When it comes to touring, the city of Miami, Florida is a tough egg to crack. It’s a well-worn belief among traveling acts—be they musical, sports-related, dramatic, or otherwise—that has shaped how they book events in the Sunshine State. Florida is a peninsula, so basically the farther south you travel past the major cities bordering the centralized Polk County—Tampa on the west coast; Orlando on the east—the less likely folks living north of there will want to make the drive to attend your event. Unless you’re a Pearl Jam, Beyoncé, Cirque de Soleil, Disney on Ice or something like that, you probably are going to be more dissatisfied with the turnout the closer to Miami you get.
