Miami Downtown Riverwalk

November 15th 2014

Bayfront Park, Miami

10 AM to 4 PM

Every year at the Miami Downtown Riverwalk, South Floridian residents travel to Miami to celebrate an event with art and music that is largely representative of the cultural diversity in Miami. Live performers from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Europe come to perform, and individuals dress up in cultural attire representative of their home countries to evoke a sense of multiculturalism in downtown Miami. You can walk alongside individuals dressed in colorful attire dancing to the beat of amazing music.  Or, you can sit down at one of the various booths to create a Colombian bag, Cuban art project, or Jamaican bead bracelet. With the variety of things to do at the Miami Downtown Riverwalk, I can guarantee that you will be entertained.

Head down to Miami this weekend and attend this event at The Miami Downtown Riverwalk.
