Miami offers a plethora of unique event spaces
Beyond The Ballroom
Miami hosts the hottest parties and events year-round, so if you’re planning a traditional event, there are hundreds of ballrooms to choose from including modern, tropical and luxury styled rooms and venues, but if you’re looking to get out of the traditional four walled space–here are some suggestions.
Some of the most memorable events happen in places and spaces that are unexpected, extraordinary or just plain strange. Looking to really make a mark? Think about having your event in a space that will surprise your guests from the moment they open their invitation.
Start thinking of great spaces you love as movie sets–that parking garage could be your dance floor, that football or baseball field or basketball arena could host your cocktail hour, an arcade can be the backdrop for your fun fiesta, a racetrack or casino can keep all your guests entertained and attractions otherwise filled with animals will bring out the party animal in your guests. The re-imagined Miami Beach Convention Center in the heart of Miami Beach provides unique options from vast ballrooms to more intimate spaces
Miami’s nightclubs throw killer parties every night, why not book a room and let them do the rest of the work? Want to make more of a statement? Book the whole club.

Museums, Galleries and Performance Venues
Many of Miami’s arts venues, from museums to theatres and arts centers, are available as rental spaces. Some spaces have private rooms for events and others open their full facilities as an event space in their off hours.
Have a catered reception in the lobby area, a corporate function in an outdoor space, or an elegant seated event in a private salon. Have cocktails on the lawn followed by a private performance on a stage large or small, a screening of a film, art exhibit, press conference, award ceremony, concert or seminar. These flexible venues host events of their own year-round, including fundraisers and gallery openings. They’ll probably have connections with rental companies and other event specialists that already know their space and can make setting up a breeze.
Be sure to ask about any services they’re familiar with when you call them for more information. Check out a full list of all of Miami’s arts and culture venues here.
