Description
If you know what ‘Festa de São João’ is you’re already excited as we are! Picture this: an authentic and unique Brazilian celebration, almost as big as carnival, created from a mix of European, African and indigenous harvest and spiritual celebrations resulting in unique music, food, games, and dance.
Group .BR, NY’s Brazilian Theater Company,
is happy to announce that
there will be Festa de São João!
Yes, there will be Festa de São João,
but there will be no tradução! Translation não.
Because Festa de São João is Festa de São João,
so we won’t Saint John Party you.
São João is when Brazilian people feel homesick. Again!
Because it is a true Brazilian celebration
almost as big as carnival
that takes the country every June.
Picture a mix of Portuguese, African and Indigenous festivities
translated into unique music, play and dance
with a truly Brazilian soul.
Come have a bite!
There will be live forró with FORRÓ IN THE DARK
and TRIO LITTLE BIRDS with the special guest LIZ ROSA,
there will be DEØGAZ (Gaspar Muniz and Deo Jorge), DJ GREG CAZ and DJAPA
spinning the best of Brazilian beats,
there will be a free forró dance class by NY Forró Fest
with Sabrina Evangelista
there will be typical food, drinks, games,
and there will be quadrilha! É verdade!
Kids accompanied by parents or legal guardians
are welcome from 3-6pm.
Free entry for kids under 12 years old!
21+ after 6pm
You don’t have to dress up,
but why wouldn’t you?
