A mini Ferrari, a Ferris wheel and more than two hundred and fifty guests - that's what DJ Khaled thinks his two year old deserves for his birthday!

The music star celebrated Asahd's second birthday by hiring out Marlins Park, the home of the Miami Marlins baseball team, and hosting what's been described as a carnival extravaganza.

#PART1 MOMMY AND DADDY LOVE YOU SO MUCH ! @asahdkhaled ! Miami, FL - (Sunday, October 14, 2018) – Yesterday, Asahd Tuck Khaled, the first born child of music-mogul DJ Khaled hosted a party at Marlins Park in Miami, Florida to celebrate his 2nd birthday with over 250 youth from various community organizations in attendance. _ Not only was this an epic celebration for the toddler mogul’s birthday, but a means of launching Asahd’s first charitable initiative, a program of the WE THE BEST Foundation, which focuses on enriching the lives of the next generation from childhood to adulthood. Asahd’s initiative will be carried out by giving grants to charities and people around the country, with the city of Miami as a major focus and primary market for the foundation. _ Asahd enjoyed his special day at Marlins Park and was presented a $100,000 check by Marlins CEO Derek Jeter on behalf of the Marlins and $10,000 from Cybex. Various community groups joined his family including members of the the Boys and Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade and Broward County. Liberty Academy Daycare Center, Connecting Families, Voices 4 Children, and Kensington Park Elementary were also among the community groups at the event who participated in a special Asahd Khaled Brand Jordan Collection fashion show. _ Guests experienced carnival rides, games, music and great food during the event while additional sponsors included Marlins, Kathy Romero, Kids Foot Locker, Haddad, The Confluent Group, Beats by Dre, Lyft, Brand Jordan, Cybex, Oda Creative, and FINGALICKING. _ For more information about  WE THE BEST FOUNDATION & ASAHD INITIATIVE please visit www.djkhaledofficial.com _ @marlins @thelickingmiami @thelickingmiamigarderns @kathyromero @cybex_global @kidsfootlocker @wethebestmusic @rocnation THE CONFLUENT GROUP @David.a.gross @jumpman23  #HADDAD @beatsbydre @lyft @odacreative @ellinnetcakecollection @be.socialevents #AsahdTurns2 #WeTheBestFoundation #AsahdInitiative

However it wasn't just for the toddler as DJ Khaled also used the event to launch the Ashad's Initiative for his We The Best Foundation, which aims to help disadvantaged children around the world.

He told People.com "My son is the greatest gift of life, our children are the world's biggest blessing, so I am so grateful to be able to celebrate his life with a carnival and to be hosting many inner-city kids and their families so everyone in our community can experience joy today at the iconic Marlins Stadium together in our hometown of Miami."

Even though he's only two, Asahd is no stranger to lavish birthday celebrations as last year Diddy performed for him at a nightclub in Miami!
