Capital One is returning to South Beach, where it will host a series of events during Miami Art Week. Capital One is teaming up with the Cultivist and artist Alex Prager to bring his Mirage Factory immersive experience to The Shelborne By Proper on Miami Beach.
If you’re a Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card or Capital One Venture X Business cardholder, you’ll have access to a handful of exclusive events.
Here’s what you can expect.

Events overview
Capital One will be hosting events Dec. 1-6. The main highlight, the Mirage Factory, is an immersive pop-up experience designed by Alex Prager, in which The Shelborne will be transformed into a journey through Los Angeles over the ages.
The installation will be open to the public Dec. 4-5.

How to access these events
To access these events, you’ll need to hold the Venture X or Venture X Business. If you’re not currently a cardholder, now could be a great time to apply, as both cards are offering limited-time welcome offers.
- Capital One Venture X: Earn 100,000 bonus miles after spending $10,000 on purchases in the first six months from account opening.
- Capital One Venture X Business: Earn up to 400,000 bonus miles — 200,000 bonus miles after spending $30,000 in the first three months of account opening, and an additional 200,000 miles after spending $150,000 on purchases in the first six months.
At the time of writing, tickets for several events were sold out — but more were added later, which sold out again. So keep an eye out in case another drop of tickets comes soon.
CAPITAL ONE
If you’re considering attending, I highly recommend paying cash for a ticket, as redeeming 25,000 miles is an extremely poor value.
Additionally, as a Venture X cardholder, you can receive 50% off a Cultivist Enthusiast membership for up to two years. This membership includes perks like free museum access, private museum hours and access to the Cultivist app.
The Shelborne By Proper
The Shelborne By Proper is a historic Art Deco oceanfront hotel on South Beach and is a part of the Capital One Premier collection, their luxury hotel booking platform. When Venture X and Venture Business X cardholders book hotels through the Premier Collection, they receive premium benefits like:
- A $100 experience credit
- Daily breakfast for two
- Room upgrades (when available)
- Early check-in and late checkout (when available)
These benefits can further enhance your experience during Art Week.

- Cardholder-exclusive tickets to MLB games

Bottom line
If you’re a Venture X or Venture X Business cardholder headed to Miami Art Week, Capital One is providing plenty of reasons to stop by South Beach. With immersive art installations, wellness classes, exclusive dinners, poolside drinks and live DJ sets, there is likely something for everyone.
Plus, it serves as a valuable reminder that your card benefits can extend beyond the typical travel perks.
