Coconut Grove Art Festival, the Grand Artistic Event in Miami

The Grand Artistic Event in Miami

Date: 02/15/2025 - 02/17/2025
The next edition of the Coconut Grove Art Festival will take place in Miami from February 15 to 17, 2025. This extraordinary event is produced by the nonprofit association “Coconut Grove Arts and Historical Association” and aims to fund various artistic programs throughout the year. Since its inception in 1963, hundreds of scholarships have been awarded to local school students pursuing art studies.

The History of the Coconut Grove Art Festival

For a long time, Coconut Grove has been considered Miami's main artistic district. In 1963, a theater enthusiast named Charlie Cinnamon suggested to a group of residents to recreate an open-air Parisian exhibition to promote the production of a local play, "Irma la Douce."

Originally from New York, Charlie Cinnamon moved to Miami in the late 1950s, eager to make his mark on the city. A visit to the Coconut Grove Playhouse launched his career, making him a key figure in the local art scene.

Today, this event has become one of the largest outdoor art festivals in the USA, known as the Coconut Grove Arts Festival. The association continues to honor its founder’s legacy, offering Floridians a wide variety of artistic experiences and live performances.

Where the Coconut Grove Art Festival Takes Place and How to Get There

The festival is held in the city, precisely at 2700 S. Bayshore Drive, just south of downtown Miami and next to the beautiful Biscayne Bay. The event mainly takes place along the streets of McFarlane Road, South Bayshore Drive, and Pan American Drive. You can reach the location by car using the traffic information service: just call 511 to get all the necessary directions. If driving, you can arrive:
  • via I-95 SB, then follow US1 to 27th Avenue;
  • via 836 West, then head south on 27th Avenue to your destination.
If you don’t have a car, a convenient way to reach the festival is to use a ride share service. Simply open your preferred app (like Uber) and enter the destination. The 2025 Coconut Grove Art Festival will undoubtedly be an event not to be missed by all contemporary art enthusiasts and anyone wishing to immerse themselves in Miami's vibrant cultural scene. Don’t miss the chance to participate in this splendid event!

I’m the biggest fan of Fall activities, but haven’t had a chance to do anything beyond Apple Picking in NJ. I decided to take a last minute 2 day trip with a friend in Hudson Valley, but didn’t know where to start [...] Thankfully I was able to use New York Welcome to do the hard work for us [...]

Irene was a FANTASTIC tour guide! She was so knowledgeable about the area and was so patient with all our questions. We stopped to use the bathroom and we got coffee halfway through, she was so kind! It was a pleasure learning about Brooklyn from you!
