The PARAISO runway tent is an updated version of the popular Funkshion tents and locations from season’s past and is in the same location and will have a similar layout.
Attendees will be treated to the only state-of-the-art 400-person tent experience consisting of lounges and a featured runway space. Located at Collins Park between 21st and 22nd streets on Collins Avenue, PARAISO will offer press, buyers and designers the authentic fashion experience they have come to expect in Miami in July. “The future of the industry is here and we are excited to be able to continue to bring the energy and excitement back for another year,” added Stojanovic.
“By joining forces, we’re able to go to the next level of production, quality and elevated design and experience. In today’s market, it is crucial for brands to tap into the pulse of authentic content creation and connect with complementary businesses and ultimately the end consumer,” said Sam Ben-Avraham, Founder of Liberty Fairs. PARAISO will be the premier destination and multi-faceted platform to unite these highly sought-after brands, consumers and storytellers alike. “With the media spotlight on Miami Beach in July, PARAISO will amplify the existing fashion footprint through a series of events including runway shows, presentations, cocktail parties, music series and interactive brand activations that fully immerse our attendees,” continues Ben-Avraham.
