Miami Art Week officially kicks off at BitBasel, the city’s premier art-tech and culture platform, with an unforgettable night curated in partnership with Okayplayer. Experience the global fusion of music, art, and innovation as Shaggy hosts a special edition of Friends From New York, bringing that signature Brooklyn-to-Miami energy to South Beach.

​Opening the night is Miami’s own DJEN, setting the vibe before the island-to-international sounds take over.

​Fueling the experience is Walshy Fire (Major Lazer) alongside surprise guest performances—set inside BitBasel’s immersive environment at the iconic Sagamore Hotel, home of our week-long exhibition, summits, installations, and VIP experiences.

​This is more than a party — it’s the cultural opening ceremony of BitBasel Art Week. Let’s begin.
