Updated news about Masquerade Motel in 2012 in Miami… no venue yet???

According to the council, they were worried about the large influx of people and they would not be able to adequate handle/police the event. This does not official prevent the event from taking place as Miami-Dade has final say in the matter, but the Miami-Dade representative who spoke in front of the council describing the plans for the Masquerade Motel event, to begin coordination with local police and officials, indicated they would ‘be the messenger’ to Miami-Dade regarding Bal Harbor’s position on this.

Some interesting items noted were that the event were to cover 4 days (March 21-24th). Also, bus service was planned to shuttle in attendees, ostensibly from South Beach.

Lastly, no permit application has actually been filed yet by Funkshion, the Swedish House Mafia’s partner in the event last year, along with Go Big Productions (who appears to not be involved for 2012).
