Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, the world’s leading luxury hospitality company, will present the third installment of its original global event series in Miami aboard KISMET, a custom designed 95 metre (312 foot) superyacht. The latest Four Seasons Pop Down comes hot off the heels of transforming a former Philadelphia high school into a surreal rooftop garden.
“As we continue to showcase talent and imagination beyond our hotel walls, we could think of no better time than when artists and art lovers descend on Miami to host our next Pop Down, celebrating the artisans and craftspeople who create magic in our hotels around the world every day,” says Peter Nowlan, Chief Marketing Officer at Four Seasons. “Those who have followed along in the Pop Down journey know that it is a platform for Four Seasons artisans to showcase their craft. We have long celebrated art in all its forms, and this has become the inspiration for our latest immersive event experience.”

Shearn has since exhibited his larger-than-life, moving installations worldwide.About the Four Seasons Pop Down SeriesFour Seasons Pop Down Miami is the third in an innovative series of immersive global events in unexpected locations, each with unique themes brought to life by a selected team of Four Seasons artists and visionaries from around the world.
