Miami, FL – March 12, 2024 – Festa della Donna is an Italian holiday that celebrates the achievements of generations of women. In honor of the contributions of women throughout history and to raise awareness about the challenges they continue to face worldwide, local entrepreneur Allison Freidin brought together a group of women from Miami to celebrate the holiday with a rare fine dining experience made possible by S.Pellegrino.

S.Pellegrino honored the women of our community with a four-course Italian dinner, custom bouquets created by What The Flower Oh My Garden, a caviar and Acqua Panna harmonization, and hand drawn portraits. Of course the theme of the evening was the mimosa flower, a deeply rooted Italian tradition of Festa della Donna (or International Women’s Day) as it represents strength, beauty, and grace.  A special speech was also given by Lauren Fallick of Kluger Kaplan who also supported this event.
