 Espanola Way
 
Española Way, the most delightful and surprising street in Miami Beach, is now the proud home to artists from all over the world and with the completion of the Plaza de España in the fall of 2002 Roney’s Spanish Village will a fitting tribute to the early days of Miami Beach and its international ambiance. Weekly events highlight the creative and exciting atmosphere that Roney envisioned more than 75 years ago.

The open-air market that characterizes Española Way on the weekends is a standing tradition with both locals and return visitors to South Beach. Española Way’s Spanish Village is one of Miami Beach’s most attractive areas for a relaxing stroll, people watching, a refreshing drink and rejuvenating meal.

This multicultural market features a variety of wonderful gifts: handcrafted jewelry, handmade clothing and shoes, accessories, candles, pottery, fresh cut flowers, orchids, and much more. Merchants and craftsman from over 20 countries create a charming ambiance and produce irresistible merchandise, while delighted tourists and locals wander the street. On Friday and Saturday evenings the market becomes “FestivArt,” an artist’s showcase. Seventeen local artists exhibit, produce, and sell their paintings and sculptures, while live musicians entertain the crowds. Sidewalk café’s, surrounding the market, beckon the thirsty and hungry. On the 2nd Thursday of every month “FestivArt” makes reappearance, offering the community another chance to browse and buy a street found masterpiece.
