Capital One Returns to South Beach for Miami Art Week

Capital One is set to make a splash in South Beach with a series of exciting events for Miami Art Week. Collaborating with The Cultivist and artist Alex Prager, they’ll create an immersive experience called Mirage Factory at The Shelbourne by Proper in Miami Beach.

If you’re a holder of the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card or the Venture X Business card, there’s some exclusive access waiting for you.

So, what’s on the agenda?

Event Overview

The collaboration between Capital One and The Cultivist features an immersive pop-up experience at 430 Lincoln Road in Miami Beach. Moreover, they’ll extend this experience to The Shelbourne by Proper, located at 1801 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, Florida 33139. Both venues are close, though separate. These events are happening from December 2nd through December 5th.

The art installation will be available to the public on December 4th and 5th.

However, there are several events that are exclusively for cardholders during Art Week Miami, including:

• Dinner with Chef Dave Beran on December 2nd at Mirage Factory*
• Martini event at Mirage Factory on December 4th*
• Golden Hour Gathering: Enjoy complimentary snacks and drinks by the pool along with live music from 4 to 6 p.m., from December 3rd to 5th.
• Nightly Sound Sessions: Evening DJ sets at Shelbourne Bar from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. from December 2nd to 5th.
• Wellness Programming: Daily wellness classes at various times throughout the week.

*Some events may be fully booked, but there’s a chance they could become available again, so check back frequently.

If you’re pondering which events to attend, there’s bound to be something that catches your interest, even if attending everything isn’t quite your style.

Accessing the Events

The Mirage Factory program, including the dinner with Chef Dave Beran and the martini event, is open to all Rewards cardholders, while the events at The Shelbourne—including the Golden Hour Gathering, nightly sound sessions, and wellness programs—are available to hotel guests as well as Venture X and Venture X Business cardholders.

If you don’t have a Venture X or Venture X Business card, now might be a good opportunity to consider applying, as both cards come with limited-time welcome bonuses.

• Capital One Venture X: Earn 100,000 bonus miles by spending $10,000 in the first six months.
• Capital One Venture X Business: Earn up to 400,000 bonus miles—200,000 after spending $30,000 in the first three months, plus another 200,000 after spending $150,000 in the first six months.

As of now, some tickets have sold out, but additional events might come back up for sale soon, so keep your eyes peeled.

If you’re thinking about attending and tickets become available again, it’s wise to buy them with cash since redeeming 25,000 miles isn’t the best value.

Plus, Venture X cardholders enjoy a 50% discount on Cultivist membership for up to two years. This includes perks like free museum access, exclusive opening hours, and access to the Cultivist app.

The Shelbourne by Proper

The Shelbourne by Proper is a historic Art Deco hotel located right on the oceanfront in South Beach and is a part of the Capital One Premier Collection, a luxury hotel booking platform. Those booking through the Premier Collection with a Venture X or Venture Business X card will receive premium benefits such as:

• $100 experience credit
• Daily breakfast for two
• Room upgrade (if available)
• Early check-in and late check-out (if available)

Such benefits are sure to enhance your Art Week experience.

• Exclusive cardholder experiences at Broadway shows like “Mamma Mia”
• MLB game tickets for cardholders only
• Jose Andres Group Race Day Party at Las Vegas F1
