The 13th annual gathering of Carroll Model Volleyball presented by Celsius is set to take place on March 18 and 19, 2023, at Miami Beach. The two-day co-ed tournament is free and open to the public and is expected to attract over 15,000 spectators.

Miami's top model agencies, including Wilhelmina, Next, Elite, Select, Source, BMG, JLM, Caroline Gleason, Ford, and Front, are invited to participate in the tournament. This year's event will feature 11 agencies and 250 participating models, making it the largest to date.
