Florida policy context. On May 3, 2021, Governor Ron DeSantis signed Executive Orders 21‑101 and 21‑102, suspending and invalidating all remaining local COVID‑19 emergency orders and restrictions, explicitly ending local mandates and lockdown-type measures statewide.(cbsnews.com) Subsequent summaries of his governorship note that from 2021 onward Florida restricted local governments’ ability to impose COVID‑19 mitigations, voided future local restrictions, and positioned the state as staying open (no new lockdowns, no vaccine‑passport requirements, etc.).(en.wikipedia.org) State-level reopening guidance for Florida places all counties in Phase 3, allowing businesses and entertainment venues to operate without capacity limits.(radio.wcmu.org) There is no record of Florida or Miami re‑imposing shutdowns on large events in 2022.

Large events actually held in Miami in 2022. The All‑In Summit itself was held in Miami Beach at the New World Symphony from May 15–17, 2022, with roughly 700 attendees, confirming that the hosts were able to schedule and execute their conference in person.(en.wikipedia.org) Other major events also proceeded: Ultra Music Festival returned to Miami’s Bayfront Park on March 25–27, 2022, drawing about 165,000 attendees after being canceled in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID.(en.wikipedia.org) NBA games in Miami during the 2021–22 season were held with fans in attendance; at most, masks were required until late February 2022 but games were not shut down.(en.wikipedia.org) These examples indicate Miami was hosting large in‑person gatherings without government closures.

Match to the normalized prediction. The normalized claim is that Miami would remain open for large in‑person events in 2022, without COVID‑related shutdowns that would prevent a conference. In reality, Florida policy removed local authority to re‑impose such shutdowns, and Miami in 2022 hosted multiple large events—including the All‑In Summit itself—without being blocked by COVID restrictions. While some venues or events may have had voluntary mask rules or other minor protocols, these did not constitute shutdowns preventing conferences. Therefore, the prediction is best scored as right.
