About this festival
Brazilian Productions presents our 21st Annual San Diego Brazilian Mardi Gras Ball at San Diego Museum of Art the most beautiful Carnival venue on the West Coast. San Diego Brazil Carnival 2013 features Carnival Bands, Capoeira, Parades, and Mardi Gras Beads. Rich in beauty and color our Carnival presents a “Spectacular Samba Show” featuring dancers in glittering costumes adorned in sequins, beads and feathers accompanied by percussionists playing the authentic Batucada rhythms of Rio de Janeiro. Since 1993, San Diego Brazil Carnival has been the “Official Brazilian Mardi Gras Ball” for the City of San Diego. "Carnavalescos" dance non-stop to the pulsating rhythms of SAMBA, BATUCADA, MARCHA, AXÉ MUSIC, FREVO, SAMBA-REGGAE, and CARNAVAL ELECTRICO as they are taken on a "Carnival Tour" of Brazil from Rio to Bahia with a stop in Recife! QUOTES: "...It's hard to beat San Diego's Brazil Carnival (brazilcarnival.com). The event is more Latin than Cajun, with samba music, body paint, What to drink? Brahma beer imported from Brazil..." Paul Tolme / Newsweek Magazine "...I was transported to Rio de Janeiro and enjoyed non-stop dancing complete with colorful parades and costumed dancers. Nobody parties like Brazilians!" Feeling HOT, HOT, HOT..." Rob Hagey / Producer San Diego Street Scene
