A Night of Myth, Magic, and Masterful Design
On Saturday, October 26th, more than 650 guests gathered at The Dalí Museum for Sueños de Dalí: Olympus Reimagined — an unforgettable evening of art, imagination, and creative storytelling.
Produced by UDREAM EVENTS, the annual fundraiser transformed The Dalí into a multi-sensory world inspired by Greek mythology and Dalí’s surreal vision. From the moment guests arrived, the experience blurred the line between fantasy and reality — each space within the museum reimagined as a realm of the gods.
From the River Styx to Mount Olympus
The journey began the moment guests entered the courtyard. Designed in collaboration with Artistic Spaces, the entryway mimicked the River Styx — a passage between worlds — complete with fire spinners and a signature cocktail, Charon’s Toll, crafted by St. Pete Distillery.
Inside, guests were greeted by living statues, towering columns, and a landscape that evolved from Hades’ underworld to Poseidon’s sea kingdom in the Raymond James Room. As the night ascended, so did the experience — leading guests up the grand staircase into Olympus itself, where angels, Zeus, and a live harpist welcomed them into the clouds.
Each space featured its own visual, audio, and interactive experience — from ethereal lighting, audio and draping by The Production Crew to captivating performances by Aerial Dragons and project ALCHEMY.
