- besides a cultural programme, it also offers creative workshops for children and adults and an introduction to Brazilian cuisine

Testimonials
“On behalf of Brasil Fest Brno, I’d like to congratulate and thank all the organizers, especially the city of Brno and TIC BRNO as well as all the excellent performers. Apart from generally known elements of Brazilian culture, the organizers succeeded in introducing other music genres and rhythms that the people of the Czech Republic may not know much about. And the great audience helped create just the right atmosphere.”

former consul in Sao Paolo
“I enjoyed Brasil Fest Brno so much! What a great event, really. Several months earlier I had been dancing at the Rio de Janeiro carnival, and it was amazing to get back to the Czech Republic and have an opportunity to dance for a Czech audience.”
Veronika Lálová
dancer
“I’m so glad Brno supported Brasil Fest financially and helped organize it through TIC BRNO. It was also amazing to see the entire team work hard during the festival even though it was the first time such an event was held here.”
