Musical Vizcaya | The CieL Experience

Join us for a vibrant evening of music, dance, and culture, curated by local musician Claudens Louis, as we celebrate the Caribbean sounds that are essential to the 305. This immersive event invites you to explore the unique musical heritage of our community through interactive performances and unforgettable moments.

Start your journey with a Caribbean-inspired menu of delicious snacks, entrees, and refreshing beverages available for purchase by the Vizcaya Café as you make your way from the gate to the Main Garden. Wander through the lush gardens and discover six interactive showpieces that highlight the rich and diverse Caribbean music that thrives in our city.

At 6:30 p.m., gather at the Center Island in the heart of Vizcaya’s iconic Italianate gardens for a captivating student performance that sets the tone for the evening. Then, move to the base of the Casino Mound for a lively 15-minute Haitian dance lesson—perfect for getting in the groove!

The night’s crescendo begins at 7:30 p.m. on the Lower South Terrace, where Claudens Louis and his talented band will deliver a dynamic 60-minute live performance, set against the stunning backdrop of Vizcaya’s Main House. Let the music move you as you showcase your new dance moves and immerse yourself in the energy of this incredible celebration.

Celebrate Miami’s rich cultural heritage and help shape the future of music and dance in our community. Don’t miss this extraordinary night of rhythm, history, and connection at the historic Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.
