Bal Harbour Village Announces Worldwide Launch  of Fleurs de Villes Downton Abbey

Bal Harbour Village is proud to announce that it will host the worldwide launch of Fleurs de Villes Downton Abbey, a floral exhibition from the internationally acclaimed Fleurs de Villes. The 10-day exhibition will run from February 28 to March 9, 2025, bringing an immersive, one-of-a-kind floral experience to the heart of Miami.

Open to the public, the exquisite 10-day event will showcase over 25 one-of-a-kind fresh floral installations, created by Greater Miami's preeminent floral designers. Fleurs de Villes' signature mannequins and pop-up floral displays will be placed throughout Bal Harbour Village - including the lobby of the St. Regis Bal Harbour, Waterfront Park, the North & South signs, Village Hall, and The Bal Harbour Shops. 

Step into the world of Downton Abbey and be transported to early 20th-century England, where the aristocratic Crawley family and their devoted staff navigate a rapidly changing era. Marvel at bespoke floral mannequins inspired by the series' unforgettable characters and iconic period fashion - from Lady Mary's sophisticated beaded gowns and statement hats to the household staff's impeccably tailored uniforms. Each floral masterpiece will bring Downton Abbey's timeless elegance and compelling narrative to life.

As guests explore the floral artistry throughout this 10-day event, they can shop, dine, and experience the beauty of Bal Harbour Village, which provides the perfect backdrop for this spectacular exhibition.

Bal Harbour Village is the ideal setting for the worldwide launch of Fleurs de Villes Downton Abbey. Renowned for its lush, oceanfront surroundings, luxury residences and hotels, world-class dining, and year-round arts and culture programming, the Village is Miami's premier fashion and lifestyle destination. Its Unscripted public art program continually celebrates creativity, making this collaboration a natural extension of Bal Harbour's dedication to artistic expression.

To complement the floral displays, Bal Harbour Village will host a series of immersive activations, including botanical cocktails at the St. Regis Bar, afternoon tea at La Gourmandise, botanical spa treatments at the St. Regis Spa, a pressed floral frame workshop at Waterfront Park, and a kid-friendly flower-making class followed by a garden tea party and a special screening of Downton Abbey at Waterfront Park.
