Mizner Park: Where Luxury Meets Lifestyle!

Step into Mizner Park, Boca Raton’s crown jewel for shopping, dining, and entertainment! Nestled in the heart of downtown, this Mediterranean Revival–inspired destination isn’t just a mall—it’s an experience. Picture lush promenades lined with palm trees, stylish boutiques, world-class restaurants, and elegant apartments all designed to make you feel like you’re strolling through a glamorous European town square.

Opened in 1991 on the site of the original Boca Mall, Mizner Park quickly transformed into the place to see and be seen. At the north end, you’ll find the Centre for the Arts, home to the open-air Amphitheatre that hosts concerts under the stars, and the Boca Raton Museum of Art, a cultural gem that keeps creativity flowing year-round.

Designed by Cooper Carry with inspiration from legendary architect Addison Mizner—the visionary who shaped much of Boca’s iconic style—Mizner Park is more than a destination; it’s a celebration of elegance, entertainment, and that irresistible Boca vibe.
