This year, Art Basel will have an early return to its South Florida home. The fair announced today that it will open to invited VIP guests already on Tuesday, November 30, adding an additional VIP day. The fair will close on Saturday, December 4, a day earlier than usual. This means that in 2021, ticket-buying visitors will be able to discover outstanding contributions by hundreds of artists at the Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC) from Thursday, December 2 to Saturday, December 4. Wednesday, December 1 will remain a VIP Preview Day as in past years, and will be accessible by invitation only.The health and safety of visitors and participants is Art Basel's utmost priority, and the fair is working closely with the relevant authorities and following international public health recommendations to ensure a safe show come December. To better control the occupancy of the halls, only a limited number of tickets will be sold. They will be available to purchase online as of October. Attendees can look forward to a wide range of artistic contributions - from installations by some of today's most promising young voices to paintings by 20th-century masters. In addition, cultural institutions across the region will be hosting engaging exhibitions and events as well.
