Full Biography
London Bloco was founded in 2018 with the intention of bringing a bit of the tradition of Brazilian carnival to the UK. Every year thousands gather in Rio de Janeiro streets to celebrate carnival and to listen and party to the music of the many different street bands that the city has to offer.
With that in mind, trumpeter and founder of London Bloco, Gabriel Dias, created the band by arranging and rehearsing popular songs from all over the world. Dias is originally from Rio and has studied music at the Juilliard School in New York.
London Bloco mixes Brazilian grooves with pop music and all-time favourite songs. The band performs regularly for corporate events, weddings, festivals, birthday parties and others. They have also made their international debut in Capri and Toulouse.
In 2020 the band partnered with Jägermeister to perform in events all over the UK and to create online content during lockdown.They aim to keep spreading joy by honouring the spirit of carnival to their audiences. Viva o Carnaval!

A great addition to our pre-dinner drinks reception
Kate H booked London Bloco for their event in London • November 2024
“We used London Bloco as background music in our pre-dinner drinks reception for 900 guests and also to entertain as guests made their way into the main ballroom. This was the second time we have used the band and we can highly recommend for any corporate event. Gabriel our main contact was professional and friendly and it was a pleasure to work with him and his band members.”
Lavinia J booked London Bloco for their Wedding in Oxfordshire • July 2023
“The London Bloco crew was, in short, fantastic. Everyone complimented their musical skill and the band charmed the guests with their performance and cheer. Music was the lynchpin of our event and they delivered with grace and ease. I am so grateful to each of them for creating an atmosphere we are still feeding off, weeks later, and a memory my husband and I will never forget!”
