The vibrant energy of the Caribbean diaspora and the refined elegance of Regency-era London are set to converge once again in the Sunshine State. The highly anticipated second staging of the Bridgerton Soirée – Masked Edition is officially locked in for December 12, 2026 at the Miramar City Hall Plaza in Miramar, Florida. Beyond the dazzling fashion, masquerade masks, and cultural celebration, the core mission of this grand affair remains firmly rooted in philanthropy: raising crucial proceeds to benefit charities and non-profit organizations across South Florida.  

The Visionaries Behind the Movement: Nioka Waugh And Nancy Fong

The grand cultural experience is masterminded by event organizers Nancy Fong (an Ocho Rios native representing Social Collective Inc.) and Nioka Waugh. Together, they have curated an immersive environment that bridges the gap between entertainment and community service.  

According to Fong, the event serves a dual purpose for the local and regional community:

“The Bridgerton Soirée – Masked Edition brings the elegance and romance of the Regency era to South Florida through fashion, culture, and community. It also creates a space for the diaspora to celebrate, build connections, and share its vibrant culture with the wider South Florida community while supporting charitable initiatives.”  

The event has garnered official endorsement from Commissioner Maxwell Chambers along with the City of Miramar. Commissioner Chambers has been a close partner of this cultural initiative since its inception. In fact, he previously teamed up with the City of Miramar to host the inaugural Bridgerton-themed cultural celebration at the Miramar Cultural Center, making his continued patronage a central part of the event’s ongoing success and deep connection to the South Florida community and Jamaican diaspora.

While the specific allocations and non-profit beneficiaries are slated to be officially announced once final tallies and selections are completed, organizers emphasize that supporting local community efforts remains the foundational mantra of the event.
