From October through December, Greater Miami and Miami Beach invites the world to experience a season of unparalleled artistic expression across performance, visual, experiential, and community arts. 

MIAMI, FL (October 6, 2025) – The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) proudly announces the debut of Fall for the Arts, a three-month cultural celebration that reinforces Greater Miami and Miami Beach’s role as one of the world’s leading destinations for art and culture. Running October 1 through December 7, the program presents a season-long invitation for visitors and residents to immerse themselves in the very best of human creativity—from visual masterpieces and live performances to boundary-pushing experiential art and community-driven activations. 

“Every fall, the world’s attention turns to Greater Miami and Miami Beach for artistic inspiration,” said David Whitaker, President & CEO of the GMCVB. “Our stages, museums, neighborhoods and even our shorelines become platforms for some of the boldest artistic expressions anywhere. Fall for the Arts celebrates this moment in time, inviting the world to discover why our region continues to evolve as a global cultural capital.” 

Miami’s Role as a Global Cultural Leader

Since the arrival of Art Basel Miami Beach in 2002, Greater Miami and Miami Beach have emerged as a vibrant epicenter of contemporary art and performance. With 23 museums, hundreds of galleries, and an ever-evolving public art landscape, the destination has become synonymous with innovation, diversity, and creative freedom. Fall for the Arts builds on this legacy, creating a cohesive season that leads into the globally recognized Miami Art Week (December 1–7, 2025). 

The program not only celebrates world-renowned institutions and international collaborations but also shines a spotlight on the diverse local voices that make Miami unique. From symphony halls and art deco theaters to outdoor promenades and underwater sculpture parks, Fall for the Arts positions Miami as the ultimate destination for boundary-defying cultural experiences.
