The Mall of Miami which is located in Miami, Florida, is the mall that Sonic Boom is located in. It is an indoor and outdoor mall. Austin & Ally mostly takes place at the Mall of Miami. It is the place where the gang likes to spend most of their time because Ally works in one of the mall stores and most of Trish's jobs take place here. The outdoor screenshots of the Mall of Miami are taken at the Irvine Spectrum Center.
The Mall of Miami is where Sonic Boom, the store owned by Lester Dawson, is located and is where Austin, Ally, Trish, and Dez hang out. Austin sometimes performs here for the local people as well. In season 2, the mall set is changed and only the area where Mini's, a restaurant in the mall, is located is shown. In season 3, the mall set is not shown at all, only Sonic Boom is shown, as Austin, Ally, Trish, and Dez spend their hang out time at Shredder's Beach Club. In season 4, a new mall set is introduced.
