Bayfront Park

Founded in the 1920s and reimagined over decades, Bayfront Park is downtown Miami’s signature public space. It is a 32-acre downtown green space with palm-lined paths, public art, peaceful lawns, an amphitheater, and strong bay views.

From its early days as Royal Palm Park, the space has hosted concerts, (being the most famouse Ultra Music Festival), community events, and quiet mornings alike. In the 1980s, artist-landscape architect Isamu Noguchi guided a redesign, lending park elements subtle cultural grace

• Walking Paths: Palm and oak tree–lined routes offer shady spots to pause or watch the water.
• Public Art: Works by Isamu Noguchi include the towering Challenger Memorial, alongside other monuments like WWII memorials and time capsules.
• Amphitheater & Pavilion: A stage for concerts and movie nights under open air, plus a playground for families near the Tina Hills Pavilion.
• Urban Alchemy: The park is surrounded by downtown’s cityscape, Bayside Marketplace, and cultural corridors—it’s a green pause in a pedestrian-friendly grid.

Weekends often bring yoga sessions, salsa dance classes, and casual concerts. On weekdays, it’s a quiet break between skyscrapers and traffic.

The park is open 24 hours a day, every day. It is free to access.
