About The International Ballet Festival of Miami

The Miami Hispanic Ballet Company was established in 1993 as a nonprofit dance organization dedicated to identifying and promoting professional dance artists of Hispanic descent in Miami-Dade County. Since its inception, Miami Hispanic Ballet has also played producer and presenter for many artists and organized major gala performances of proven artistic excellence, eventually culminating in the creation of the Annual International Ballet Festival of Miami. Recognized as the most successful in the US and is the only one of its kind in the State of Florida, the festival brings our residents and visitors the unique opportunity to view a wide range of local, national and international artists of exceptional merit.

This Festival represents the most ambitious ballet project ever conceived in South Florida; the magnitude of its program, along with the prestige of the participating companies and the renowned principal ballet stars, has captured the attention of the most demanding audiences. The festival has introduced audiences to a stunning array of national and international ballet companies from across Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the USA, many making their USA debuts. Furthermore, it has provided the opportunity for local dance and ballet companies to demonstrate their talent alongside the world's most renowned dancers. The festival has received rave reviews and earned the utmost respect of the local and international media, significantly raising Miami's profile among international ballet companies as a destination for talented artists to be appreciated.
