Miami Weekend Guide: The Roots, WrestleMania, The Grind, Justice For Trayvon

Weekend Guide: The Roots, Wrestling, And Justice Rally

Although there's plenty of reasons to stay home and close to the tube this weekend -- Games of Thrones and Magic City -- South Florida's calendar is full of events to draw you outside.

Sunday, join others at the Justice for Martin rally at Bayfront Park.

There's also a blood lusty burger competition, ring action at WrestleMania, and the legendary Roots crew playing the Arsht Center.

Be sure to check our HuffPost Miami's weekly indie cinema roundup to see what's playing at local arthouse theaters, particularly the Rakontur's film restropestive at O Cinema.

As usual, the latest in around town news, from celebrity sightings to secret show announcements, is cataloged on our Live Blog.
