Carnaval Week @ Guanabara Saturday

Saturday February 18th: CARNAVAL 2012 - BAL MASQUÉ with PARAÍSO SAMBA SCHOOL -

Although the mighty Samba parade is the best-known feature of the Rio Carnival, it is hundreds of local 'balls' that are the main attraction for "Cariocas" (natives of Rio) insiders. That's the atmosphere Guanabara creates on its second night of Carnival, and to make the most of the party, just wear a beautiful, mysterious, seductive and glitzy mask. PARAÍSO SAMBA SCHOOL parade from Seven Dials in Covent Garden to Guanabara earlier in the day, and later that night pound out the rhythms in serious carnival style with the most funked up dancers on Guanabara's stage. DJ Limao runs the Samba-Marathon, spinning tunes guaranteed to have you moving around the floor like a true Carioca. DRESS CODE: wear a mask!! (Masks will be available at Guanabara, don’t forget to grab yours!) Fancy dress is also welcomed. 5pm-4am.
