The City of Miami Beach and The Rhythm Foundation invite you to join us for a showcase of
exceptional music by young artists, at 8th Annual Miami Beach Youth Music Festival on Saturday,
March 9, 2024, from 3 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. at the Miami Beach Bandshell (7275 Collins Avenue,
Miami Beach, FL).
This popular season highlight is the culmination of musical performance video auditions, held
throughout December 2023, as 47 local youth musicians applied for a coveted spot at the Festival.
Performers this year were selected by a panel of City and music industry professionals, looking to
showcase talented bands, school groups and soloists.
This year the Festival will be headlined by the legendary Miami Beach Rock Ensemble, and will
feature three showcase stages throughout the day, including the Clark D. Burris main stage in the
Bandshell, and an acoustic stage and piano bar in Bandshell Park. The final schedule is an exciting
lineup of everything from classic rock, torch singers, next generation jazz artists, indie singer-
songwriters, talented instrumentalists, even the return of a pint-sized Beatles cover band. Artists
selected include:
n aiis , Ashra Hunt, Aubrey Rosenhaus, August Jean, Avalanche, Catalyzt, Children's Voice Choir,
