CloudM, offered a breezy, open-air setting that elementally, offered a lightness and ease of attendees. Quality conversations and connection ebbed and flowed throughout the night. Located just steps away from the Miami Heat Arena, the venue was easy to access for both local creatives and visitors attending the Alejandro Sanz concert nearby. The pool deck’s design combined luxury with comfort, featuring modern lounge areas, ambient lighting, and panoramic views of the city skyline.

Guests mingled around the pool, enjoying Miami's Downtown Bayside breeze and the warm glow of the city lights. The setting sun gave way to a starry sky, and the rare Butterfly Moon added a magical touch that elevated the entire experience. This natural phenomenon, known for its delicate beauty, seemed to mirror the elegance and energy of the night. Butterfly moon's are often viewed as a time to celebrate personal accomplishments and how you have "blossomed" over the preceding months. The full-moon perfectly aligned with the evanescent glow of Miami's Freedom tower, visually illuminated the skyline that ignited the energy throughout the night.
