Bravo has an alternative for those disappointed about missing BravoCon 2024.
On Monday, Aug. 5, the network announced BravoFan Fest Miami, an “intimate one-day celebration” for fans taking place Saturday, Nov. 23 that will feature appearances from an all-star lineup of 25 Bravolebrities across their crop of shows.
Like BravoCon, the gathering will include themed activations, panels and photo opportunities with said stars.
Prior to that, the famed Bravo Clubhouse will come to life in Miami with five Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen shows taped across two days: Thursday, Nov. 21 and Friday, Nov. 22.
Ice Palace Studios will serve as home to all three days of the Bravo festivities, the network said.
A final list of talent will be announced at a future date, but Bravo teased talent would be in attendance would include those from the Below Deck franchise Married to Medicine, The Real Housewives of Atlanta, The Real Housewives of Miami, The Real Housewives of New York City, The Real Housewives of Potomac, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Southern Charm and Summer House.
Tickets for WWHL and Bravo Fan Fest Miami will go on sale Friday, Aug. 9 at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT. Each will be sold separately.
Bravo kicked off BravoCon in 2019, and has run the fan convention three times since — in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
But back in April, the network said they’d be putting the event on pause, with Cohen later saying that they need time to regroup.
“It was such a huge endeavor and so much,” he told pal Anderson Cooper at a a Tribeca Talks event in New York City attended by PEOPLE. “It just felt like too soon to do it again this year.”
The convention will return to Caesars Forum in Las Vegas next year, for the weekend of Nov. 14-16, 2025.
In the wake of its absence, the network has been rolling out a series of events that give fans the chance to get “up close and personal with their favorite Bravo stars and celebrate their passionate fandom.”
Among those? Watch Party by Bravo, a live event they’ve held for Summer House and The Real Housewives of Orange County.
