Party! The eleventh edition of this unique festival in Europe will again take place in the culturally rich Delfshaven district in Rotterdam! This edition we have a really special guest: the legendary Wanderléa!

The Brazilian singer, icon of Jovem Guarda, revisits the genre that marked the beginning of her career in a show of her most recent album “Wanderléa canta choros”, accompanied by musicians and teachers of the EPM Choro School.

So come and enjoy beautiful concerts, presentations and demonstrations by students and teachers of the Brazilian music school EPM Holanda and Capoeira Berimbau de Ouro and the tasty authentic Brazilian food!
