Bayfront Park Management Trust is a limited agency and instrumentality of the City of Miami. The Trust manages two downtown waterfront parks:

Redesigned in the early 1980s by Isamu Noguchi*, Bayfront Park is a 32-acre site located in the epicenter of downtown Miami on Biscayne Bay. It is bounded on the north by Bayside Marketplace (an open-air festival style mall that attracts 12 million people per year), on the south by InterContinental Hotel, and on the west by Biscayne Boulevard (downtown Miami’s “main street”).

Bicentennial Park, a 29-acre site also located on Biscayne Bay, is seven blocks north of Bayfront Park.

Bayfront Park’s 32 acres of lush greenery includes a small sand beach, tropical rock garden and waterfall (dating back to 1926), playground, fountain, Light Tower, and many different monuments**. Special event facilities within the park include Klipsch Amphitheater and Tina Hills Pavilion. Klipsch Amphitheater is managed and operated by Live Nation, the largest worldwide promoter of live music. It reopened in August of 2009 after a multi-million dollar renovation that included permanent reserved seats; new, picturesque sightlines to Biscayne Bay; a new superior roof structure; state-of-the-art production capabilities; VIP boxes with table service and VIP parking; permanent, new restroom facilities; expanded concessions, and more. The Tina Hills Pavilion is available for smaller concerts, receptions, corporate events, and press conferences. The park recently underwent a renovation of its baywalk. The baywalk runs along the edge of Biscayne Bay throughout the park and continues to Bayside Marketplace. Renovations include tree plantings, benches, removable chairs, bike racks, trash containers, pavers, and a re-working of a portion of the irrigation system. The renovations were intended to soften the edges of the park and create a more pedestrian friendly environment.
