This year’s celebration will also mark the opening of a free, three-month outdoor exhibition: “Boot Camp in Paradise: World War II in Miami Beach.” The exhibit will include 30, state-of-the-art panels featuring a selection of photographs and printed materials from 1942-1945, when Miami Beach hosted over 600,000 U.S. troops training for combat in WWII.

Curated by the Office of the Mayor and City Commission in cooperation with the Wolfsonian-FIU and with support from the Miami Beach Visitors and Convention Authority, it will run through the end of January in Lummus Park along Ocean Drive between 11 and 12 streets in a space being called Galería Ocean Drive.

With the “Boot Camp in Paradise: WWII in Miami Beach” exhibition, the City of Miami Beach joins the global celebration of the 80th anniversary of D-Day in 2024.
