Ever heard of a dance festival that has its own international date and that, currently, takes place in a dozen European countries (including Switzerland, Denmark, Holland, Germany), as well as in Brazil and, surprisingly enough, in Russia? This is the Forró Festival, an event that was originally created in London and has subsequently spread to other neighbouring countries. In Brazil, similar festivals nominate the best trios (three piece musical band) to play at the event in England – this year’s winner was Itaúnas from the state of Espírito Santo! Sound good? Want to get involved?
