TL;DR

Miami's Rhythm Of The Cup series, produced by Dayglo Presents and GMP Live, pairs live music with World Cup watch parties at Miami Beach Bandshell through July 19. Poolside performs July 10 and Chromeo closes the series July 17, following earlier sets from High Fade and Thievery Corporation. Each concert is scheduled for the eve of a World Cup match at Hard Rock Stadium, with artists representing competing nations.

“The World Cup is such a special and global event, and Miami, and specifically the historic Miami Beach Bandshell, feels like it was built to be a part of it”

Two Headliners Still to Come

Chromeo and Poolside will close out Miami's Rhythm Of The Cup series, a World Cup-themed concert run at Miami Beach Bandshell produced by Dayglo Presents and GMP Live. Poolside takes the stage Friday, July 10, with the Grammy-nominated Canadian electro-funk duo Chromeo wrapping the series Friday, July 17.

World Cup Ties and Past Performances

The programming is deliberately tied to the tournament. Each concert was scheduled for the eve of a World Cup match at Hard Rock Stadium, and the artists themselves all hail from competing nations. Scottish funk-punk-disco outfit High Fade played June 23, the night before Scotland faced Brazil. Trip-hop veterans Thievery Corporation performed June 26, marking their third consecutive appearance at the Bandshell.

Watch Parties and Family Programming

Watch parties are woven into the schedule for fans without stadium tickets, covering both Semi-Finals on July 14 and 15, with doors opening ahead of each kickoff. The series kicked off June 20 with The Rock and Roll Playhouse Presents: The Music of Bad Bunny, a family-friendly children's concert experience produced by Peter Shapiro of Dayglo.

GMP Live has been producing concerts at the Bandshell since 2020 and entered a long-term partnership with Dayglo's Peter Shapiro in 2025. Tickets are on sale now at gmplive.net, with VIP table options available for groups of 6-10. The series runs through July 19.
