Miami Ballet 2025-2026 Season
The Miami City Ballet 2025-2026 season marks 40 years of this Florida arts institution, the programs taking audience members on a journey from its past with an Alexei Ratmansky premiere in honor of the company’s founder Toby Lerner Ansin, through works by choreographers that are part of MCB’s core such as George Balanchine, Jerome Robbins, and Paul Taylor, to the present with a new ballet by Durante Verzola.
Miami City Ballet 2025-2026 Season Reimagined
On July 24, 2025, one month following the appointment of Gonzalo Garcia as it the company’s new Artistic Director, Miami City Ballet announced an adjustment to their upcoming season.
The season begins with the dynamic Peck: Miami in Motion, a program which highlights Justin Peck’s (New York City Ballet‘s Resident Choreographer and Artistic Advisor) Year of the Rabbit, Chutes and Ladders, and Heatscape. Following is the perennial Balanchine The Nutcracker.
The fist Winter Mix program, titled Into the Magic City features Ratmansky’s new work joined by Balanchine’s Serenade. The second, Across the River of Light, will showcase Christopher Wheeldon’s This Bitter Earth, Jimmy Gamonet’s Nous Sommes, and Verzola’s Sentimiento.
Annabelle Lopez Ochoa’s Carmen will reprise after premiering earlier in 2025 and Balanchine’s Jewels will also be presented.
The first Spring Mix, Your Perfect Golden Hour, includes Amy Hall Garner’s Resplendent Fantasy, José Limón’s Moor’s Pavane and Chaconne, and Alonzo King’s Following the Subtle Current Upstream.
The season ends with ¡Vamos! To the Beach, sandwiching Verzola’s new creation set to music by George Gershwin between Taylor’s Company Band Twyla Tharp’s Deuce Coupe, a company premiere with music by The Beach Boys.
