Elon Musk and Ken Griffin met over red wine on Carbone Beach. Steve Ross was mugged on camera along with Nelson Peltz and David Solomon.
The billionaires, along with other members of the jet set, were at a Party organized from Major Food Group on Saturday, a day before the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami.
This is all part of an effort to increase the sport’s popularity in the United States. The Miami Grand Prix, which debuted in 2022, has become an annual fixture for the rich and famous, who flaunt their wealth and glamor at numerous parties in the city that has become a magnet for billionaires.
This past weekend, numerous celebrities and sports stars, including Kendall Jenner, Camila Cabello, Travis Kelce and Lindsey Vonn, partied in Miami and took part in an avalanche of events surrounding Sunday’s race.
As far as the competition itself is concerned, Lando Norris achieved success upset victory. But there were also shocks off the track. At the Hard Rock Beach Club, a basket of carne asada nachos cost $180. Lobster rolls, $280. An ounce of caviar was added for another $400.
The hard rock party, which also included performances by Ed Sheeran and DJ Steve Aoki, took place over three days right outside the Miami Autodrom. Guests who wanted to enjoy the full event experience had to spend over $1,700 to get in. Photos from the stunning menu went viral on social media.
A bottle of Tito’s vodka cost $560. A 1.75 liter bottle sold for about $30 retail.
A Hard Rock spokesman said the menu is priced for the entire table, intended for groups of six to eight people, rather than individual portions.
