Vewtopia is on the move.

The music festival headlined by Cardi B., was set to hit Marlins Park for Super Bowl 54 weekend, Thursday-Saturday.

Organizers announced that the fest has changed venues due to “a production issue,” and partnered up with SuperFest Miami LIVE and the City of Miami Gardens. Ticketholders were already refunded, said a Vewtopia spokeswoman.

So you will need to repurchase tickets for this revamped event, located at 19101 NW 27th Avenue, in a popup space created for the occasion.

Before you start complaining, the lineup stays the same: Cardi will be joined by Chris Brown, Migos, Nicky Jam, Ty Dolla Sign, Megan Thee Stallion and Da Baby.

The merging of Vewtopia and Superfest has its double dipping advantages: Attendees can enjoy the music, plus all SuperFest has to offer in one location. We’re talking access to the fan village, with food, rides, interactive games and more family-friendly fun.

“Amazing things don’t just belong on South Beach,” said Vewtopia cofounder Ryan Burke, “and we are honored to bring this dynamic event to the City of Miami Gardens.”

If you have yet to be refunded for your Vewtopia tickets, you can get in touch with customer service via the website, www.vewtopia.com/contact, said the spokeswoman.

Any other questions? At 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, organizers are going live on Instagram @superfestmiami.

Gates open at 3:30 p.m. and the concerts end at midnight on both days. Two-day passes starting at $149 at www.superfestmiami.com; 21 and over.
