The night
Every door in Miami opens for someone. This one opens for one night only.
December 3, 2026, Convergence takes over a private estate home on the Intracoastal for one night. Helicopters on the helipad. A casino on the deck. Chico Castillo, formerly of the Gipsy Kings by André Reyes, on stage. Artists painting live. Ferraris donated and auctioned before the night is over.
Icons. Superstars. Athletes. Founders. Entrepreneurs. Nobody here to watch anyone, everybody here to meet everybody, and a beautiful culinary experience built for the people in that room, not a banquet hall.
This is not a party. It is the number one night of the entire year, Art Basel included, and nothing else on the calendar comes close. Convergence is superstars, athletes and artists meeting founders and icons in one room, introductions worth hundreds of millions of dollars changing hands between courses. That convergence is the product.
The event
An evening of elegance and power.
No other event during Art Basel in Miami will be as powerful, or as beautiful, as this one.
A few nights a year the right people end up in the same room, and almost never by accident. December 3, 2026 is one of those nights. For one evening this is the only place in Miami that matters, and every person inside it was chosen by name.
Convergence Miami is an annual room. This is the first one.
This is who was chosen.
The head table
Guests of Honor
Five names. Three guests of honor and two special guests: icons, film stars and athletes, among the most recognized names in the world.

Your hosts
Two men who built from nothing, hosting one room.
Rafa J. Conde

Mark Shapiro
Founder & CEO, Shapiro Capital
Forty years in multifamily real estate. More than 25,000 units owned, managed, bought and sold across markets throughout the United States.

Who converges
The people you came to meet, in one room.
Icons and influence
Creators, recognized names and cultural figures with national and international reach. Invited as guests, not booked as talent.
Founders and capital
The people who came from somewhere, lost something and built anyway. Investors, executives and operators still in the arena.
No stage. No rope line.
Nobody is scheduled. They are at the table and in conversation, every one of them invited.
The featured artist
He paints with both hands at once, often with his eyes closed, and finishes a full canvas while the room watches. It started at eleven, when his grandmother dared him to live six months without his right hand. He came out of it ambidextrous and never put the brush down.
Marvel, Star Wars, DC and Stan Lee. Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. The Avengers premiere, the NFL Draft, SXSW. In 2025 the Vatican commissioned three paintings from him, and he was received by Pope Leo.
Two hands. One canvas. Painted live, in the room.
The artist
Monopoly
The street artist who took the Monopoly man off the board and turned him into a global symbol of money, chaos and color. Spray paint, drips and dollar signs, on canvas, cars and buildings, from Los Angeles to Miami to Dubai.
He built his name live, painting in front of the crowd at the biggest parties and art fairs in the world, Art Basel week in Miami among them. Collectors, athletes and entertainers own his work.
During Art Basel week there is no hand more recognizable in this city. He will be in the room.
The artist
Eaton
The muralist whose walls stand in New York, Paris, Shanghai, Detroit, Los Angeles and Wynwood. Painted freehand in spray paint, at the scale of buildings.
He designed toys for Fisher-Price at 18, co-created the Dunny and Munny at Kidrobot, and built Thunderdog Studios for clients from Barack Obama to Nike, Disney and Hublot. The Museum of Modern Art holds his work in its permanent collection.
From MoMA to Wynwood. He will be in the room.
The artist
Chougar
Trained at HEC Paris and ENA, France's top schools for strategy and power, then walked out of consulting to build Cowesion, a studio that treats fine art, sound and spiritual practice as one system.
His show Echoes of the Invisible ran at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2025: large-format paintings, sound design and sculptural light, built on ancestral symbolism.
Strategy trained, soul driven. He will be in the room.
The art director
Mirolevich
Artist, curator and art director. More than 25 years and over 250 exhibitions in museums, leading galleries and international art fairs worldwide, across painting, etching, sculpture, illustration and immersive installations.
Collaborations with Calvin Klein and Tiffany & Co., and film projects associated with Steven Spielberg. Covered by The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and CNN. Founder of Artemiro Gallery.
He curates the art of the night. Every artist, every canvas, every wall.
The music
Castillo
Formerly of Gipsy Kings by André Reyes
The Gipsy. Celebrating forty years in music, live with his band. Rumba flamenca, the sound that has been playing on terraces from Saint-Tropez to Miami for four decades, sung by one of the voices that made it.
The performance follows the dinner and the conversation, and turns the night from a private salon into a late-night Art Basel terrace.
Live over the water at ten, with the room full.
The table
Giugliano
Born in Naples. Trained in Michelin-starred kitchens, Quattro Passi in London and Taverna Estia in Italy. The chef who put Doma in Wynwood on the map, now at his own table, Mano Libera in South Miami, recommended by the Michelin Guide in 2026 and named to 50 Top Italy.
The fourteen-course chef's table is his. Every guest eats from his kitchen all night.
The night
Six moments. One night.
Bentley arrival
Chauffeured Bentley pickup for invited guests, valet choreography at the gate, and a welcome glass at the door.
Champagne and caviar unveiling
A rare caviar service presented with prestige Champagne as the doors open. The first moment of the night.
The chef's table
Fifty Kingsman seats around one long table over the covered pool. Fourteen courses from Marco Giugliano.
The conversation
A clean stage over the pool, the guests of honor with the two hosts. The moment the whole room stops.
Cigar and bourbon lounge
Leather, a fire on the water, bourbon tastings and cigars. A private club inside the night.
The casino on the deck
Roulette and craps under the lights, chips bought as a donation. The Ferrari auction at midnight.
Also in the room
The next names announced will be bigger than the last.
Invited personally by the founders. Not booked. Invited. Each name is announced publicly as it is confirmed, to a combined audience of more than two million, and every one makes this room harder to get into.

Names you know from the field and the arena
Film

The lounge, the casino, the DJ
A DJ takes the night from the band. The cigar and bourbon lounge on the water. The casino on the deck. The Ferrari auction at midnight. The main bar, the high-tops, the dance floor.
Why this room
Proximity is the product.
Why this event
One night built around the people in it. The table, the stage, the art, the music, the casino on the deck. Not a conference. Not a gala. One room, for one night.
Why this week
Art Basel brings the highest concentration of collectors, investors and international wealth to Miami. The most valuable seven days on the calendar.
Why this size
Small by design. A real room, with the right people in it, and none of the crowd that keeps them apart.
Why it matters
A private room creates conversation a conference floor never will. The introductions made that night do not happen anywhere else.
Kingsman Private Access
Fifty seats. One table. The hour before the doors open.
At seven, fifty seats around one long table built over the covered pool. Fourteen courses from chef Marco Giugliano. Passed hors d'oeuvres, rare caviar, prestige Champagne, a full top-shelf bar. The guests of honor at the table, before the rest of the guests arrive. Then the Kingsman table for the night. Closest to the stage. In the photographs. In the room.
Limited to fifty seats. Every Kingsman seat is confirmed personally by the founders. When the fifty are gone, they are gone.
The names at the head table are not public yet. They are in the private deck. Leave your name and number and we send it to you.
One table. Fifty seats. The hour nobody else gets.
Two ways in
Both are open. Kingsman is limited to fifty seats, confirmed by the founders. Want to see who is at the table first? Get the private deck.

The charity partner
The night gives back.
Fight 4 Mental Health
Mind, body, spirit. Faith, strength, victory. Connecting people to mental health care, and fighting the stigma that keeps them from asking for it.
The casino on the deck runs in its name: every chip a donation, one number read to the whole room at the end of the night.
Before you reserve
If anyone can buy a ticket, how is it private?
Because the door is closed. Every ticket is issued to a name, and that name is checked at the gate. There is no walk-in entry and no public address. The location goes only to confirmed guests, and the guest of honor names stay off the public page for security and privacy. Kingsman seats are confirmed personally by the founders.
Where is it?
A private estate home on the Intracoastal in Miami. The address is given to confirmed guests only, with your confirmation and again the week of the event.
How do I get in?
Both tickets are on sale now. General admission and Kingsman Access are purchased online. Every Kingsman seat is confirmed personally by the founders. Want to see who is at the head table before you buy? Request the private deck and a member of the team sends it to you.
What is Kingsman Access?
Fifty seats at the chef's table from seven to eight thirty: fourteen courses by Marco Giugliano around one long table built over the covered pool, with the guests of honor and invited names at the table, an hour before the doors open. It includes everything in general admission.
Can I bring my partner?
Yes, and most people do. Every seat is priced per person. This is not a seminar you attend alone. It is an evening on the water with extraordinary people.
What is the dress code?
Cocktail attire, Miami elevated. A suit, a double-breasted, a blazer with something sharp underneath. There will be a photographer working the entire evening.
Can I transfer my seat?
Yes. Seats are transferable to another person with at least seven days notice. All sales are final.
