More About Miami Beach Bandshell

The Miami Beach Bandshell, formerly the North Beach Bandshell, is an open-air amphitheater in the heart of Miami Beach’s North Beach neighborhood. The famed outdoor music venue recently received its historic landmark designation.

It has been managed by the Rhythm Foundation – a Miami Beach-based nonprofit cultural organization – for the City of Miami Beach since 2015. Built in 1961 by Norman Giller and Associates, the Miami Beach Bandshell is an anchor of the North Shore Historic District. The historic district received its 2009 designation on the National Register of Historic Places based on the characteristic style of MiMo (Miami Modernism or MidCentury Modernism), a post-war modern style of architecture.

Since its construction, the Bandshell has served as a community center and gathering place for North Beach residents. Big bands would play on Saturday nights, creating an impromptu ballroom under the stars. In the 1960s, famed variety TV show The Mike Douglas Show was filmed on location at Miami Beach Bandshell during the winter months. In the 1970s, benches were removed and the venue was used as a roller skating rink. For sixty years the North Beach Bandshell has brought people together in the spirit of community, culture and entertainment.
