The Miramar Cultural Center will host The University Singers for a two-night engagement on Saturday, July 25 and Sunday, July 26 at 7:00 p.m., bringing one of the Caribbean’s most acclaimed choral ensembles to the city for its long-awaited Florida return.
A high-profile cultural exchange for South Florida
The concerts, presented by the Jamaica Hi5 Foundation and produced by Tallawah Productions, are billed as "An Evening with the University Singers: A Cultural Exchange." The event will be held under the patronage of Consul General Oliver Mair and hosted locally by Miramar Vice Mayor Carson ‘Eddy’ Edwards.
Organizers say the engagement is more than a single performance; it is intended as a cultural exchange designed to highlight music’s ability to connect communities, generations and audiences across borders. For Miramar — home to a large Caribbean diaspora and a growing cultural programming calendar — the shows mark a notable occasion for local arts and community engagement.
"This is a unique opportunity for South Florida audiences to witness one of the Caribbean’s finest musical ensembles," said Vice Mayor Carson ‘Eddy’ Edwards. "The University Singers have earned an international reputation for excellence, and we are proud to welcome them to Miramar for their inaugural Florida performances. These concerts will be inspiring, uplifting, and memorable for all who attend."

With just two performances scheduled, organizers anticipate strong demand and are encouraging residents to secure tickets early through the Miramar Cultural Center box office.
