DJ Irie Weekend IX

MIAMI, fl - For most of Miamians, their celebratory events had come to an end during consecutive victories of Game 6 and Game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals as the Miami Heat scorched the San Antonio Spurs for their 3rd NBA Title.

For one man, the party had just warmed up! Not only was it 3 for #3 (Meaning Super Star Dwayne Wade getting his 3rd ring and ultimately changing his name to nothing other than...wait for it... "3") but, also another ring for Miami Heat DJ Irie, the best NBA DJ ever!

As an expected crowd of 400,000  cheering, white-hot fans watch in awe of their beloved champions, DJ Irie knew his celebration had only begun as he and his team prepped tirelessly behind the stage lights, celebrity and chaos of the NBA Finals for an event that would change lives forever.

You see... Irie isn't just moved by beats by Dre...but more importantly by the beat of a passionate heart. His focus is on our world's future...our kids, your son or daughter, brother or sister... the children of tomorrow.

The Irie Foundation: The mission is simple...empower South Florida’s at-risk youth to lead productive lives through mentorship programs, cultural experiences and scholarship opportunities.

The 9th annual Irie Weekend fired up just a few days after the Championship parade.
As if Miami wasn't hot enough... DJ Irie and his staff were sure not to let this Miami Heat die down.
The line up of activities where infused with everything you could imagine and more!

SLS & Hyde Night Club:
OMG! This was a jaw-dropping experience. The atmosphere was more than tasteful!
There was something for everyone. An ambiance of elegance with a hint of sizzle.
With a beautiful array of Hawaiian Dancers, scenic pools and international tastes, this was surely the place to be on South Beach!

This "Invitation Only" event was just as prominent as sitting Cort-Side during Game 6 as "Sweet Jesus" Ray Allen drained a 3-pt shot from just beyond the arch!
Everyone who was anyone had a spanking hot invite to this South Beach Party. An assortment of members from the Miami Heat ignited the crowd with their white-hot presence in support of DJ Irie. Celebrities of all kind were within our mitts as well as the Miami media,  making sure to not miss a beat on the vibrant party.

This event was just the beginning of what was to come; similar to watching King James' warm up performance in anticipation for another 4th Qtr. takeover and ultimately another Heat victory.

Irie made it simple for us...he humbly thanked us all for being in attendance.
He showered us all with love for showing our support and more importantly helped guide us all toward a successful step in the positive direction when it comes to making a difference in tomorrows' youth. And, to top it all off...he allowed many of the attendants to make contributions of any amount. This event was sure to not disappoint. Several generous donations to the Irie Foundation ensured us all that hope is still alive indeed.

On Stage: DJ Irie with the first recipient of an Irie Foundation Scholarship!

Celebrity Golf & Bowling:
My...my...my! What an experience?! These next two events in combination were by far the most fun I've ever had in South Florida. Joined by familiar faces within and around the sports and entertainment world, from current to former Heat players, movie stars, comedians and artists it was such a beautiful sight to see.

 Tastebud parties were in full effect as all the food and beverages  you could imagine were present. Support from sponsors like Hublot, Hooters, Chambord, Miami Subs, Bliss Sugar, Heineken, FreeBee, Just Live and many more were there... one couldn't help but have a spectacular time.
Oh, and don't worry... everyone golfing was not a "Expert!" #AllFun&Games

Lucky Strike Bowling scored a "Strike" of its own with the Celebrity Bowl! With an electric atmosphere, live DJ's, awesomely delicious food, and premiere service, its the ultimate place to host a party. We bowled until the wee hours of the night in the heart of Lincoln where thousands of tourist shopped till they dropped and ate their little hearts out.
