Miami may have a reputation as a sprawling party zone with the emphasis firmly on neon-lit hedonism, but it's also a bit of a cultural treasure trove. The city is painted with the brushstrokes of multiculturalism, making it a melting pot of influences, flavours, and vibrant art and cultures. 

As Miami Beach’s cosmopolitan profile has increased in recent years, so have its cultural offerings. You can spend your time strolling through the intriguing and provocative collections of area museums, catch an opera in a historic theatre, or take in an orchestra performance while reclining on a park lawn with a drink in hand. From creative street artists to world-renowned dance and theatre companies, Miami offers an abundance of options that celebrate diverse cultures and perspectives. Check them out below.

    Decorated with gushing fountains, and the waxy petals of orchids, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens is Miami’s answer to the Palace of Versailles. Beautifully landscaped gardens, with a European flavour to them, surround this mansion, which was donated to the people of Miami by James Deering’s family. Inside is just as colourful with its collection of ornate Italian furniture, but you’ll want to visit during an evening concert to experience the true magic of this museum. Sit back, as a singer’s voice echoes harmoniously around the softly-lit, flower-tangled courtyard.

Blocks of colour, provocative political images, and satirical jabs at everything from the government to the media have been carefully daubed onto these walls, transforming rundown relics into ever-changing canvases. Wander between the illuminated exhibits, on what the organisers call a "street art safari", to appreciate the creativity and beauty of these artworks in a whole new light.
