University of Miami - Frost School of Music - Festival Miami

Festival Miami’s mission is to uphold the Frost School of Music’s vision of providing high quality music education and training for its students as well as exposing the community to a diverse range of cultures through music. Located in the heart of Miami’s culturally diverse community, the Frost School of Music intends to foster advancements in music performance, creativity, scholarship, and teaching among its faculty and staff.

Festival Miami acts as an important educational tool to amplify the number of opportunities for musical enjoyment and personal enrichment to as many residents and tourists as possible. It is known for three distinct programming elements: presenting international musical guest artists; showcasing Frost School artist-faculty and award-winning student ensembles; and adding educational components such as master classes, open rehearsals, and talks with the artists. The Festival’s superior and diverse musical programming expands beyond South Florida’s cultural boundaries.

Festival Miami caters to a wide range of musical tastes—from classical piano to children’s concerts to oldies music to jazz to Afro-Cuban music to chamber music to new works and everything in between. See why Festival Miami is Florida’s Premier Music Series.

As always, Festival Miami’s goal is to provide high-quality music performances at affordable prices so that people from throughout the community can attend. In addition to the at least three free-admission concerts, Festival Miami designates all of its master classes and lectures free and open to the public. The Festival also participates in student discount program called “Culture Shock” and the “Golden Ticket” program, which offers free tickets to senior citizens.
