Visiting This Summer? Here’s What You Need to Know
To ensure Vizcaya Museum and Gardens remains beautiful, safe and accessible for another 100 years, we’re actively restoring and reinforcing key areas of the estate this summer.
While most of the estate remains open, visitors may notice some temporary closures or construction activity in specific areas. We appreciate your understanding and invite you to explore how we’re investing in Vizcaya’s future.
WHAT’S OPEN | The majority of the museum remains open for visitors to enjoy. This includes:
- The Formal Gardens and Waterfront
- Most Decorated Spaces in the Main House
- Audio tours and self-guided experiences
- Vizcaya Café and Shop as well as the Village Café
From historic gardens to storm-proofing the Main House, here’s a look at what’s happening at the museum currently.

Active Preservation Projects
South Gardens | Maze Garden
We’re enhancing the Maze and Theater Gardens, located in the southern section of the estate’s Formal Gardens. As part of our ongoing efforts to protect the site from extreme weather, we’re installing a new concrete seawall to help mitigate future flooding.
While we’re at it, we’re also refreshing the plantings in these areas, introducing new shrubs and greenery to bring renewed life to these intimate garden spaces.
WHAT TO EXPECT: The Maze Garden is currently closed. The Theater Garden will potentially close in August. Some garden paths in this area may be temporarily closed while work is underway. Check back for progress photos and new updates.
