Cultural events and festivities in Brazil

Overview

Cultural activities and festivities continue across various regions of Brazil. In Rio de Janeiro, events include the ‘Parque de Ideias’ project at Biblioteca Parque Estadual, featuring lectures and plays inspired by Jorge Amado, and the Feira das Yabás celebrating samba and gastronomy.

In Bahia, celebrations for Jorge Amado’s legacy include the ‘3 Obás de Xangô’ exhibition in Salvador and Candomblé-focused events in Ilhéus. Other regional initiatives include the Ajeumbó project in Parnamirim, which highlights Afro-Brazilian culinary traditions.

Urban hip hop culture is being actively promoted in João Pessoa through the Batalha do Beco project. Supported by the João Pessoa Cultural Foundation (Funjope), the initiative recently hosted an event at Praça Rio Branco featuring DJs Adriano Preto and Iordz to promote peripheral cultural expressions in the historic center.

Preparations for future Carnival celebrations are also advancing. In Rio de Janeiro, the Banda dos Amigos is celebrating its 10th anniversary and has launched its 2027 theme, ‘Mulher’, to honor female strength. Additionally, the samba school Chegou o que Faltava is preparing for the 2027 season with a theme inspired by the history of Itaúnas, Espírito Santo.

In Pernambuco, the musical group Mundo Bita is scheduled to perform the ‘Festa dos Bichos’ show as part of the Rolê REC’n’Play event in Caruaru.
