🌽🐂✨ ARRAIAL DO BOI ENCANTADO ✨🐂🌽 BRASILIANITIES NHC 2026 From the heart of Brasil’s countryside to the streets of Notting Hill Carnival 🇧🇷 This Ala celebrates the spirit of Festa Junina, the second biggest celebration in Brasil, and the magic of Boi-Bumbá, one of Brasil’s most important folk traditions. Born in the 18th century, Boi-Bumbá tells the story of a magical ox that dies and is brought back to life through music, dance, drumming, and collective celebration — blending Indigenous, African, and European influences into one vibrant spectacle. In Brasil, we turn history into theatre. We dance our roots. We celebrate together. Bonfires, quadrilha, rhythm, colour, and the joyful chaos of the arraial arrive at Notting Hill Carnival 2026 🌽🔥✨ This is culture. This is community. This is pure BRASILIANITIES. 💃🏽🐂 ⚠️ This Ala is almost SOLD OUT If the Ala reaches full capacity, please add a second costume choice on the Google Form. #brasil #samba #nottinghillcarnival #festajunina #brasilemlondres

🔥 ALA PERNAMBUCO EM FESTA 🔥 O Nordeste chegou na avenida. 🌵🇧🇷 This ala is pure BRASILIANITIES— the colours of the frevo umbrellas, the strength of Caboclo de Lança, the joy of the povo brasileiro dancing in the streets. Inspired by the culture of Pernambuco, we bring to Notting Hill Carnival 2026 the energy of Recife and Olinda: vibrant colours, powerful drums, movement, tradition, and festa from beginning to end. 🥁✨ Frevo no pé. Maracatu na alma. Brasil no coração. ❤️🇧🇷 This is more than a costume. It’s a celebration of Brazilian culture, ancestry, resistance, and alegria. A few spots are still available for those ready to represent Brasil with pride 👑 NO DANCING EXPERIENCE NEEDED 👑 Costume by @ilaleila 📸 @fotografobrasileiroemlondon #PernambucoEmFesta #nottinghillcarnival #BrazilianCulture #Frevo #maracatu
