“Put on your samba shoes and head to Carnaval Exotica”
– Jessica Gelt, Los Angeles Times
The L.A. institution of true Latin party spirit, sensuality and rhythms returns to seduce Angelenos with the 23rd annual Brazilian Carnaval / CARNA-FOLIA of beckons revelers. A faithful replica of the real Carnavals in Rio and Bahia, Carnaval is the most authentic and extravagant party on the West Coast and has consistently sold out for the past 22 years. It will take place in the spirit of Carnaval. Featuring the top Brazilian band @calisamba, Samba Dancers, @djsherman24, DJ Luiza M & @djkalldomarape
L.A.’s official, and longest running party tradition happens in downtown Los Angeles. This hybrid dance party and Brazilian music concert offers Angelenos the chance to indulge the senses and lose themselves in a relentless sea of samba, funk, surrendering to irresistible beats behind the anonymity of sequins, masks and feathers. The national cocktail of Brazil – the Caipirinha – will also be available for purchase. Caipirinhas are made with Brazil’s most common distilled alcoholic beverage Cachaça, mixed with sugar and lime and poured over ice. This light and refreshing cocktail blends perfectly with the heat and non-stop energy of Carnaval! “
