Full Pink Moon O, Miami Festival Launch Party
Apr 01, 2026
From: 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM
Poetry and a lunar-themed gathering come together for the opening night of the annual O, Miami Poetry Festival.
The Full Pink Moon Festival Launch Party takes place Wednesday, April 1 at Andaz Miami Beach, marking the start of a monthlong celebration of poetry across Miami-Dade County. Timed to the Full Pink Moon, the evening invites guests to watch the moonrise by the water while participating in a themed open mic and viewing the moon through a telescope.
The program also features a poetry reading by Mathias Svalina, coinciding with the first day of his Dream Delivery Service in Miami. Attendees will get an early look at the 2026 O, Miami Full Moon Calendar, developed through the Moons for Miami project, which introduces newly imagined full moon names and illustrations rooted in the local community.
Founded with the goal of ensuring every resident of Miami-Dade County encounters a poem during the month of April, the O, Miami Poetry Festival brings poetry into public spaces through site-specific events, community gatherings and creative projects. Festive attire inspired by the moon is encouraged. Admission is free with RSVP.
