Brazilians and Brazil lovers unite! |
Toronto Centre Island Toronto, ON M5J 2V3 Canada +1 416 299 5932 (Organizers) http://www.itabrasentertainmen... |
You don't need to know how to locate Brazil on a map to enjoy the passion of the county's dance and music. Each year, this festival heats up Toronto with Brazilian fever. The mood is ecstatic, and the city seems to move to the beats of the samba. Organized by Itabras Entertainment Productions, Brazilfest hopes to promote Brazilian culture in Canada, and make Brazilians based in Toronto feel at home. Join the carnival and who knows? You might even learn a few Latino dance moves! Review © 2007, Wcities |
