Hyatt Regency Miami Faces Liquor License Revocation After Allegedly Allowing Minors to Attend Christmas-Themed Drag Show

The Hyatt Regency Miami is facing the potential revocation of its liquor license after hosting a Christmas-themed drag show in December that allegedly allowed minors to attend.

The show, titled “A Drag Queen Christmas,” was part of a larger holiday-themed drag show tour and was held on December 27th at the Hyatt Regency Miami.

According to a complaint filed by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, the state warned the hotel that if it failed to ensure minors were prohibited from the performance, its liquor license could be rescinded. The complaint, which was posted by the Miami Herald and other publications, argued that the hotel violated Florida statutes on lewdness by hosting the show.

The complaint alleges that the event was “lewd” and “vulgar” and that minors were admitted to the show. The complaint also states that the hotel failed to properly enforce its admission policy for the event, which prohibited minors from attending.

The administration of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is now seeking to revoke the hotel’s liquor license as a result of the incident. The hotel has not yet responded to the complaint. It is unclear at this time what the consequences of the revocation would be for the hotel.
