What an exquisite evening. Went to see Obsession and I'm obsessed!!! The show was absolutely phenomenal. The performances, the wait staff, the food, the drinks, the ambiance were all amazing. We had drinks before the show in the inside bar and had a fantastic experience there as well. Elegant and beautiful, a must visit. I HIGHLY recommend experiencing Obsession and the Faena Hotel. read more

The Allura Cabaret show at Faena Theater was a visually, sonically, and physically mesmerizing experience. It was a little confusing entering the theater because there weren't signs indicating where the theater was. After getting lost for a few minutes, we were directed to the other side of the building to check in for the show. The hostess pointed us to our seats right away. Since we ate dinner before the show, we didn't get to try the food or drink. From other reviews, it seems like it isn't all that. We were given complimentary water though for the show. The theater itself is pretty small and intimate which means even the worst seats in the house are pretty good. My friend and I were seated on the upper mezzanine center and got a full view of the show most of the time with some blockage from the light equipment under us. It was when the dancers were at the very front of the platform that it could get a little hard to see. Other than that, the view was great. The show itself is a mixture of singing, dancing, guitar, drums, acrobatics, costumes, colors, and artistic nudity. It's hard to describe the experience in words and it's better to live it than for me to describe it to you. There's something for everyone and there are segments that are very interactive with the audience. Especially if you're sitting right in the front, don't be surprised if the host singles you out in the middle of the show (all in good fun!). Just make sure to get in on time because the show starts promptly at 8, they start letting people in by 7:30. There's also a 10-15 minute intermission in the middle of the show if you need a bathroom break. Overall, this is not an experience you want to miss and probably one of my favorite experiences in Miami! read more

If there is ONE thing you need to do in Miami before it goes away, is watch the CARMEN show at FAENA Theater! We loved everything about the show.

Carmen was the best show I've seen... possibly ever? Way better than cirque. Intimate setting. Unique performances. Striking visuals. Fire. Straps performance was skillful and the bull on aerial silks was so artistically done. Fantastic music and vocals. Service was amazing also--I was offered and brought a purse holder, the male server brought one that specifically works with a clutch. I appreciated how he crawled around as to not disrupt the show. Bathrooms not too far away from the theatre. I want to come back and watch another show! read more

Wow spectacular. This place gave me old world charm. It was like being in Paris at crazy horse. The dancers are incredible. They're in such great shape and the choreography is so exciting. We couldn't stop gasping and getting excited and clapping. Sometimes the audience was completely silent during an incredible stunt because we were just all with our jaws dropped! The caviar and champagne service are worth it. I recommend the caviar with the truffle chips if you're allergic to gluten. It was so inspiring. I really loved watching Carman and I can't wait to see more productions in this beautiful space. It was very elegant. read more

I have been to about three or four of the Faena theater shows and they have always been nothing less than spectacular. The ambience and charm of the art deco era theater cannot be reproduced by the more modern large scale productions. However, my recommendation is to purchase a seat in the lower level. read more

Great show! We went to see Allura cabaret show and it was sexy,beautiful and fabulous! The food really good a bit pricey but good , drinks were well made and the service wonderful. Between the tickets , good and drinks we spent $1000 between 2 couples. We had a fabulous fun night! read more

What a beautiful space! Wow, Faena Theatre not only exceeded my expectations with its look/feel ambiance and all but truly transported me to a whole different era. I came here to watch Manu Manzo perform live and couldn't believe this was my first time at the theatre. From it's romantic and intimate scene, to it's dark loungy vibe, it's the perfect spot for all kinds of special occasions. I had myself a glass of wine which was a bit overpriced but it didn't come as a surprise considering where we were at. The concert was amazing! From visiuals, to the actual performance to everything in between, I was wowed from start to end and I cannot wait to go back their for one of their burlesque shows. read more

Ridiculously amazing fun show! Horrible cocktails lol! Had to swap my cocktail for just tequila on the rocks it was sooo bad. My hobby's drink not great either. With that said get wine and enjoy the incredible show! Not a bad seat in the house but best seats are in middle front. read more

Not impressed by the unprofessionalism. Arrived on time for our Thursday night showing, only to be told in person that it is cancelled. Not a phone call to the number on file, no text, voicemail. Zero apologies or attempt to revive our evening by cancelling our plans. Over rated for the lack of efforts made here. read more

Wonderful show and atmosphere for a different type of entertainment. Dancing and singing of a Spanish love story about a girl name Carmen.

Great experience. Is my third time watching the show and is a unique place to be in Miami. The Bartender Patricia remembers me since my last time. Very professional. Always smiling. The show is amazing, best show ever. Dancers are so talented. I couldn't believe the acting. The music. The energy. Highly recommended. If you in Miami this is the best experience.

I would never come to Faena theatre again. I purchased tickets for their 10:30 show on a Friday night. The email that gets sent upon confirmation says "doors open 30 minutes prior the show and guests are welcome to enjoy pre-show cocktails or light bites." Their website even says doors open 45 minutes before (see photos). I arrived at 9:50 since doors open at 10, but stood line close to 45 minutes to even be let in. I was let in at 10:35 to a bar, no where to get "bites" and the doors to the theatre still not open. Since GA was all that was left for the date I was available, that's what I purchased. The website states "General Admission Tickets - no seating guaranteed" (see photos)... that is NOT the same as no seating available. Since I was first in line to enter the theatre, I was under the impression I'd have somewhere to sit especially after standing for almost an hour. Upon entering I was told there is no seating for GA. I tried to speak to a manager or staff and everyone was extremely rude the minute I mentioned GA. I've lived in Miami for over 10 years and have never experienced a staff this rude. I was told "that's not what the email says" then when I showed them the email, I was met with "well that's not what it means" After planning my entire evening around the show, I left the venue before the show started. I'm in disbelief and disgusted at how rude the staff was and would have never expected this from Faena. read more

Retro was an absolute masterpiece! Start to finish the room was filled with magic, music and movement! A journey through the groove, filled with classic singalongs, the type of show that encourages you to join the party, get up and dance! The dancers were exquisitely technical and talented, every single cast member is a star! Rocky and the band are breathtaking! Jaw was on the floor in awe the whole show- highly recommend! read more

I was on the fence about splurging on a ticket for this show but I am SO grateful I did, it was worth every cent. The performers are the top of their craft and have a variety of talents - not to give everything away but the show includes singers, instrumentalists, aerialists, dancers, flamenco... it was truly amazing. The theater was beautifully decorated, I felt like an old Hollywood starlet walking down the spiral staircase covered in red light. It was smaller than I expected, which was great because I got the cheapest seats and still had a great view of the everything. I am a long time live music and theater fan and this show was unlike anything I'd ever experienced. Budget was high and it shows!! Staff was lovely as well - shoutout to my waitress Hannah who was so sweet and took great care of me on my solo date. Would recommend for birthday, anniversary celebration, or just something different to do while visiting Miami. Can't wait to come back one day! read more

Faena Theater in Miami Beach is a mesmerizing blend of opulence, artistry, and sheer talent. Set in the iconic Faena Hotel, this theater offers a unique experience that is nothing short of spectacular. The performances are a visual and auditory feast, with each act outdoing the previous one. From the lead singer's enchanting vocals, intricate choreography, to the impressive and imaginative acrobatics, every moment is designed to captivate the audience. The venue itself exudes luxury, with its lavish decor and intimate seating arrangement. But what truly sets Faena Theater apart is its commitment to delivering top-tier entertainment. The burlesque variety show is a must-see, offering a tantalizing mix of dance, music, and drama. While the food options might be limited for vegans they do have a few options. The cocktails and ambiance more than make up for it. The staff is always very attentive and invested in guiding you through the experience. Every time they announce a new show I make my best effort to attend. If you're looking for a night of glamour, excitement, and world-class performances, Faena Theater is the place to be! read more

This was such an amazing experience! I had never been to a burlesque performance and so when once of my besties said she wanted to go for her bachelorette night, I said heck yes. Before getting into the details, I will give you a heads up about the navigation and how to get there because they are enforcing on time arrivals. So when I visited the Faena in May, there was tons of construction and the detour takes you along Collins Ave where you couldn't make a left turn into the hotel for valet. I was practically sprinting to the door because I didn't want to miss anything, or get shut out. so just give yourself an extra half hour on top of travel time. Now for the food and show. I loved the sliders but man I could've used about three more slides as they only serve two lol. I had some of my friend's fries because it was a huge portion but it's more of a tapas type of menu. Kat Cunning and her musical talents are top tier. Not only does she know how to work the crowd, she can sing and also wrote a few of the original songs. My friends and I loved them so much that we even tried to Shazam it lol. The show was fun and we enjoyed it but it would've been nice to see some beautiful melanin on stage. I would like to visit the Faena again for another show because I love these types of experiences. read more

Allura at the Faena Theater was an immersive experience with incredible talent on display. The performers put on a hell of a show and involved the crowd from start to finish.

If you're in the mood for a live performance, I highly recommend seeing Samsara Cabaret. It's a new original performance presented to us by the breathtaking Faena Theater. As soon as the lights dimmed low and the music began to play, the lady in red, who was dressed seductively, grabbed our attention. Her form, passion, and desire to fill the room with her presence was undeniable. I would definitely describe the entire show this way. It's a beautiful story, one that I'm glad I knew absolutely nothing about beforehand. From the beginning to the end, this performance had me mesmerized, it was well done. The theater is decorated beautifully with lavish lighting, (the chandelier is simply breathtaking), seating (you have options of dining at round tables or private booth's on the main floor or sitting bar-style upstairs around the circular balcony). The main color in the theater is a striking bold red. The kind that was appropriate for the hot, fiery, sexy energy emanating from the stage. They provide dinner before the show begins which starts at eight and offer two show times, nine and eleven o'clock. My husband recommends you checking with ticket master because they (unlike the theater) had many more seats available to purchase. Also, if you want something to eat during the show they offer a full menu of tasty appetizers and of course, alcoholic beverages to choose from as well. read more

Like having your mind blown with a huge non binary strap on named Kat Cunning. Tryst a Lovers Rendezvous at the FAENA theater is the current offering with evening shows on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Host and lead singer Kat Cunning has a lyrical sensuousness, a bluntly blasphemous rhetoric that will tickle your curiosity, take you by the collar and playfully feed you an evening of seduction. Backed by a cast of 12 fire eating, levitating, twirling and contorting unicorns, this live intimate cabaret show is visually alluring, vocally enchanting and liberally evocative. Come with an open mind of blank pages ready to swim in the underworld leaving only with mental sketches... read more

Very beautiful and classy theater with a fantastic show - I saw Sensatia that make a great night out. The hotel and grounds are also very beautiful and the attention to details and service were outstanding. The valet parking is $35 and the show tickets are priced depending on the seat you want. We had floor seats at a round table near the front right side and it was very view. This place is not that large, so any seat will be acceptable. I had the sliders, tacos, and French 75 drink and they were all very good, but a tad on the pricey side. Make sure to stay for the end as the performers come out for meet and greet with pictures. read more

SPECTACULAR! Wow! I came by this hotel due to my best friend - she surprised me as a Xmas gift to watch their cabaret show. The hotel is up to par in all the levels now I understand why Kim Kardashian recently bought a condo here. The hotel has a pretty carousel as you come in to the hotel it is not to ride - it's a art décor. The staff as you walk in is very attentive and helpful; they keep the hotel spotless and smelling good including the restrooms (which says a lot about the hotel). My bestie and I didn't have much time to explore because we had to be at theater by 8:45pm and of course we were running tight on time. We were able to go outside and take some pictures with an enormous dinosaur skeleton - awesome! I wish we would've had time to had some drinks at their outside bar (Tree of life, which they have a humongous tree) or upstairs bar (Saxony Bar). We will definitely be coming back soon to hang out at the bar. We saw their Samsara Cabaret show which it was AMAZE-BALLS! Oh my goodness that whole cast is so talented! I provided some pictures so you can grasp an idea- I was taking it all in that I didn't take many pictures. The theater is kept just as tidy as the hotel. The waiter/waitress were super nice and not pushy. At the end of the show the cast gives you a chance to take a group with all of them, which is a nice touch. Kudos to the bestie for bringing me here. Loved my Xmas gift! read more

Located within one Miami's luxury beachfront hotels, Faena is definitely a theatre you want to visit. There are a variety of shows you can experience here. VIP booths are available and are very comfortable and not too far away from all of the action. The interior is very beautiful with lots of Reds and mood lighting. Drinks and dinner are available for order. The serving staff is pretty good, however, we did encounter an issue with the server still charging us for something we said we didn't want that she stated she would take off the bill. Since another server came to take it away, she decided to get cheeky and charge as if I wouldn't notice. When fixing the issue, she ended up taking a very long time after the show was done and they were prepping for the next. This turned our experience into almost a negative one. Servers here need to be ethical. We're already in a VIP section paying top dollar and ordering without any cost in mind. So don't take advantage. read more
