Art Basel Miami Car Rental — Tesla Delivered to Your Hotel

Public days run Friday 4 to Sunday 6 December 2026 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, with invitation-only VIP preview days on Wednesday 2 and Thursday 3 December. The wider Miami Art Week runs roughly 30 November to 6 December. Confirm current details with Art Basel.

At the Miami Beach Convention Center, 1901 Convention Center Drive, Miami Beach, Florida 33139, in the middle of South Beach and a few blocks from the Collins Avenue hotel corridor. Wynwood, the Design District and downtown Miami sit across the Julia Tuttle or MacArthur Causeway on the mainland; travel time varies substantially with Art Week traffic.

No. The main Art Basel Miami Beach fair is at the Miami Beach Convention Center, not in Wynwood. Wynwood is a separate mainland arts district that hosts its own galleries and Miami Art Week programming, and several satellite fairs traditionally take place there. If you are based in Wynwood, see car rental in Wynwood and the Design District.

By car it is across the Julia Tuttle or MacArthur Causeway, both toll-free. The Design District is a short further drive from Wynwood. Travel time varies substantially with Art Week traffic, so allow more than you would in an ordinary week. Every Amped vehicle carries a SunPass transponder, so any tolled route is billed at cost.

Both work and Amped delivers to each. MIA is closer to Miami Beach, Brickell, downtown, Wynwood and the Design District. FLL is also inside the service area and can be the better arrival point depending on your flights or if part of the trip is in Broward. You can be delivered at one approved location and return at another inside the service area with no one-way surcharge.

Amped Auto Rentals provides transportation and rental vehicles, not Art Basel admission. Tickets for Art Basel Miami Beach 2026 are available through Art Basel’s official ticket shop.

Car rates are $89/day for the Tesla Model 3 and $95/day for the Tesla Model Y. Three things are added: a $10/day booking fee, applicable Florida sales tax, and protection — $0 where your own comprehensive and collision coverage extends to the rental vehicle, or the applicable Bonzah product where it does not. Delivery is free on rentals of 7 days or more within 50 miles, or a flat $120 on shorter rentals. A $250 security deposit is placed at booking and reconciled after return. A 5-day Model Y over Art Basel week with your own insurance works out to about $562 all-in. Full breakdown →

No. We charge the same published rates during Art Basel and Miami Art Week as during any other week of the year — $89/day for the Model 3, $95 for the Model Y, with the same multi-day discounts of 5% at 3+ days, 10% at 7+ and 20% at 30+. Hotel and flight pricing typically rises in the first week of December. Amped’s published rental rates do not change for Art Basel week.

At 7 days the 10% multi-day discount applies automatically: the Model 3 is $560.70 for the week and the Model Y is $598.50. Delivery and collection are free at that length. Adding the booking fee and sales tax, a 7-day Model Y with your own coverage comes to roughly $712 all-in. Booking the full week from the VIP preview through the closing Sunday usually costs less than five separate days.

By early November, and earlier if you need a specific vehicle. The fleet is seven vehicles including three Teslas — two Model Y and one Model 3 — so Art Basel week sells out rather than filling up. Unlike an airport counter there is no overflow lot to draw from. If you're travelling in the first week of December, book as soon as your dates are fixed.

Yes, to any Miami Beach or Miami address. Amped can deliver to qualifying Miami Beach hotel addresses, including properties along the Collins Avenue corridor and in the Faena District, along with Design District, Wynwood, Brickell and downtown addresses. We coordinate with the valet so the handover takes a couple of minutes, and we collect from wherever you finish.

Several Collins Avenue and South Beach properties offer Tesla destination charging or Level 2 in their valet garages, at some properties. Amped does not verify individual hotel charging facilities, so confirm directly with yours. Availability changes and spaces are limited during Art Week, so confirm directly with your hotel when you book the room rather than assuming. Two reliable alternatives: the Tesla Supercharger at the Pennsylvania Avenue Garage, 1661 Pennsylvania Avenue in South Beach, a short drive from the Convention Center, and the Lincoln Road garages, which carry public Level 2. Every Amped vehicle is delivered with a high starting charge, so most Art Week guests never need to charge at all. More on charging →

The closest Supercharger to the Convention Center is at the Pennsylvania Avenue Garage, 1661 Pennsylvania Avenue in South Beach, a short drive away. There is also Supercharger access in the Design District and Midtown near Wynwood, convenient if you're moving between satellite fairs. Level 2 charging is available in several Lincoln Road garages and at some Collins Avenue hotels. Every vehicle arrives with a high starting charge — for the Model Y that's about 330 miles, more than a full week of Art Basel driving. See the South Florida charging guide.

The Miami Beach Convention Center Campus has its own dedicated garage — Greater Miami & Miami Beach reports 800 spaces at a $20 flat fee for event use, with decks on the 4th and 5th levels, and valet near the West Lobby at $30 to $35. Those are the destination bureau’s current figures, not Amped rates, and they can change. Separately, the City of Miami Beach runs municipal garages nearby, including the 17th Street Garage at 640 17th Street and the Pennsylvania Avenue Garage at 1661 Pennsylvania Avenue. Garages near the fair fill early on public days. During Miami Art Week, the City of Miami Beach may also provide special shuttle and transportation services connecting municipal parking, the Convention Center and mainland art districts — check the City’s current Art Week transportation information before your trip. Lincoln Road and City Hall garages are a short walk and usually hold longer. Collins Avenue hotel valet runs high during Art Week and is the most expensive option, though simplest if your hotel has it. In Wynwood and the Design District, expect metered street parking and paid surface lots. If you're only driving on some days, we can deliver on the morning you need the car and collect when you're done — so you're not paying to store it through the week.

Rideshare can work well if you are staying near the Convention Center and making only occasional trips. During peak Art Week periods, however, Greater Miami & Miami Beach advises visitors to expect heavy traffic and rideshare surge pricing. A rental can be useful if your itinerary repeatedly takes you between Miami Beach, Wynwood, the Design District, downtown Miami, airports or other South Florida destinations. If you're staying on Collins Avenue and walking to one fair, rideshare is the simpler choice and you shouldn't rent a car at all.

The main fair is at the Miami Beach Convention Center, with Design Miami beside it in Pride Park. The others are split between beach and mainland: Untitled Art and Scope Miami Beach traditionally run on the sand near Ocean Drive; NADA Miami and Pinta Miami are traditionally in Wynwood; Art Miami is at One Herald Plaza in downtown Miami on Biscayne Bay; Aqua Art Miami is at the Aqua Hotel on Collins Avenue. Satellite venues move between years — confirm each on the fair's own site closer to December. Beach to Wynwood runs over the Julia Tuttle or MacArthur Causeway, both toll-free; travel time varies substantially with Art Week traffic.

Yes. Standard Autopilot — Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and Autosteer — is included free on every Tesla. Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is an optional $20/day add-on covering Auto Lane Change, Autopark and Smart Summon. Autopark is the one Art Week guests mention most, because South Beach parking is tight. Neither system is autonomous — the driver stays alert and in control at all times.

The Model Y has a rear liftgate, a flat load floor with the second row folded, and a front trunk — which between them handle framed work, crates and art-handling cases far better than a low-slung sports car. For anything genuinely large, use a professional art shipper. A rental car is not the right answer for a crated piece, and no honest rental company should tell you otherwise.

Yes, at no extra charge. Delivered to your Collins Avenue hotel and returned at Miami International Airport, for example, or flown in to MIA and out of Fort Lauderdale. On rentals under 7 days the $120 delivery fee covers both legs; at 7 days or more both are free. The only condition is that the return address sits inside the 50-mile service area, and the vehicle stays in Florida for the whole rental.

Yes. VIP preview days are December 2 and 3, 2026, ahead of the public days on December 4 to 6. A two-day rental is fine, though delivery is $120 flat below 7 days and the multi-day discount doesn't start until day 3. In practice, booking from the preview through the closing Sunday often costs little more than the preview days alone, once the 7-day discount and free delivery are counted.
