Miami-Dade County Auditorium partners with outstanding non-profit cultural organizations and artists to present high quality performances on the Main Stage, Mid-Stage, and On.Stage Black Box configurations with the objective of cultivating their interesting and progressive work. Programs are presented in English, Spanish, and sometimes both in order to best serve Miami’s multilingual audiences. The 2,372-seat, multi-purpose theatre is famously known for its wide range of reputable cultural performances now and throughout its history. Since then the Auditorium has continued to blossom under the innovation and artistic excellence that the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs cultivates. In 2012, the operations of Miami-Dade County Auditorium transferred over to the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs.
Prestigious organizations such as Miami City Ballet, Florida Grand Opera, Sociedad Pro-Arte Grateli, and the Concert Association of Florida also call the Auditorium home. Numerous world-renowned performers have graced the Auditorium stage such as Carol Channing in “Hello Dolly,” Mikhail Baryshnikov, Julio Iglesias, Gloria and Emilio Estéfan, Lola Flores, Marian Anderson, Celia Cruz, José José, Itzhak Perlman, Yo-Yo Ma, José Feliciano, and Jerry Seinfeld to name a few. Since then, countless historic performances have taken place at the Auditorium over the years including the American stage debut of Luciano Pavarotti in a 1965 production of “Lucia De Lammermoor” starring Joan Sutherland. Miami-Dade County Auditorium’s first event, a production of “Carmen” by the Miami Opera Guild (now known as Florida Grand Opera) in February 1951, was performed to a sold out house. Its splendid history includes hosting countless numbers of operas, symphonies, theatre presentations, ballets, concerts, and community programs. Located in what is now considered the heart of Little Havana, Miami-Dade County Auditorium has served as one of the oldest and most prominent performing arts centers in the South Florida region for almost 70 years.
A resplendent hub of diversity, culture and celebration of the arts, Miami-Dade County Auditorium serves as one of South Florida’s cherished premiere performing arts centers for showcasing an array of dazzling artistic excellence.
