Visitors to the Arsht Center can expect an impressive range of programming that spans the performing arts spectrum. The center hosts everything from Broadway touring productions and classical ballet to symphony orchestras, jazz performances, contemporary dance, and international music acts. What makes the programming particularly distinctive is its commitment to representing the multicultural character of Miami itself, frequently featuring Latin American artists, flamenco performances, and works that celebrate the city's unique cultural heritage. Throughout any given season, audiences might encounter intimate chamber music one evening and large-scale theatrical spectacles the next, ensuring there is something to captivate virtually every artistic taste.

The architecture itself creates a sense of occasion, with public spaces designed to encourage gathering and conversation before and after performances. When planning your visit, checking the center's website at arshtcenter.org provides essential information about upcoming shows, ticket availability, and parking options.
