Presenting sponsor Zacapa Rum, once again, invites patrons to experience the award-winning blend of their ultra-premium rums and witness firsthand its international reputation for taste and quality. To complement the ultimate dining al fresco experience, the final event of the 2015-2016 Giralda Under the Stars series on April 1st will showcase the future of Giralda Avenue! The Downtown Coral Gables Streetscape project will go underway in June to enhance the economic vitality of the downtown district by transforming one of the City’s main streets, Giralda Avenue. It will provide a cohesive pedestrian-friendly experience with garden areas, outdoor dining, improved lighting, way finding, public art and more. The last event on April 1st will excite all guests to look forward to the 2016-2017 Giralda Under the Stars series with a new and improved public promenade, Giralda Plaza.
For this event, attendees can expect a huge celebration, which will include a performance by award winning and local favorite band, the SunGhosts. There will also be an exclusive sneak peak of the future Giralda Plaza with a live photography installation debuting the plans for the street! The Local will be celebrating their 5-year anniversary the same night incorporating a vibrant atmosphere with a tent at the end of the street featuring robata-style cooking. Coral Gables’ favorite, The Bar, also has something to celebrate: a new menu created by consulting Chef Josh Marcus of Josh’s Deli. Guests can also expect a Cool Kids Corner that will host fun, kid-friendly activities and entertainment until 9 p.m.
