Golf & Reception

Par for the course, the golfers will be starting out bright and early at 8 am on October 6th, 2021 to make the most of the day. Golfing is thirsty work, so refreshments and light appetizers will be available after the game, as well as the chance to network with other attendees.

In the meantime, later arrivals can check in to the 5-star FAENA Miami Beach Hotel and freshen up before an evening of entertainment and networking. Go for a dip in the hotel’s luxury pool, or take advantage of their private beach access. For the art fans, check out the famous Damien Hirst Golden Mammoth display by the pool.
