Event Description

The real deal in all things Carnaval and Chicago. The night will feature local Brailian super group Swing Brasileiro which combines some of the area’s most accomplished Brazilian musicians playing popular carnaval musical styles such as Samba, Marchinhas, Samba Reggae, Frevo and Batucadas. The evening also includes Carnaval costume dance performances by the beautiful Folia Tropicalia Dance Group. Also making a debut will be  Bloco Maximo, a 12 piece force of percussive groovers, bringing carnaval batucada from Bahia and Rio.

And just to get in the mood they will broadcast Rio de Jenairo’s Carnaval Parade on a 22ft screen before the show starts.
