Opening Night Party

Join us for a night of French flair at our 2025 Opening Night Party!

After the premiere of our opening night film, head over to the iconic Historic Alfred I. duPont building for our opening night bash, where we’ll honor the elegance and charm of French cinema.

Indulge in bites from returning festival favorites like Quinto Miami, Divieto Ristorante, Paella y Ole, Shake Shack and Crepe Maker along with French-inspired treats by Bouchon Bistro, and welcoming new restaurant partners like Fogo de Chao, GoGo Fresh, and Family Fresh. Sip on our official festival beer Cerveceria La Tropical, delicious wine on tap from Sixty Vines, enjoy the smooth taste of Barcelo Rum, grab a fizzy Olipop Soda, Smartwater and Topo Chico along with specialty cocktails by Strega Liquor, Capel Pisco & Blue Nun Wines  — all with a chic French twist! 

Our DJ will be setting the mood with a blend of Miami rhythms which promises a night filled with style, culture, and unforgettable fun. Dress in your best French-inspired chic (think Parisian elegance with a Miami flair) and get ready to celebrate in style!
