The Basque regional government has formally requested a temporary loan of Pablo Picasso's 'Guernica' from Madrid's Museo Reina Sofía to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao for a period from October 2026 to June 2027.

Three veteran attendees—an artist, an advisor, and a gallery owner—chose to skip the event this year, citing lackluster parties, declining collector interest in Miami compared to Paris, and poor sales attrition. Despite these doubts, the fair saw strong sales, with Hauser & Wirth reporting a 40% increase in the first three hours, and a new digital art sector boosting optimism. Pop-up exhibitions, like "The Body is The Body" at the Rice Hotel, were highlights, while Vanity Fair's party remained the most coveted invite.
