Brilliant Brazilian party bands
The key to a fantastic Brazilian-themed party is to book a Brazilian party band. These talented bands bring the sounds, stilettos and sequins of the Rio carnival to your party, to entertain and delight your guests. Just add some cool beers, some street food and you're all set to samba. But do you have the space?
Popular Brazilian party outfit the Latamba Show Band offer a range of line-ups so they can entertain at all kinds of events and venues, from private parties in your home to dedicated party venues or festival marquees. Their standard line-up is a 5-piece band including a genuine Brazilian vocalist, for an irresistible dance party atmosphere. Add some extra dancers, and you've got yourself a carnival of fun, with their exuberant Tropicalicious show, up to two hours of entertainment that will definitely get your guests begging for 'extra time' to enjoy just one more number!
For the authentic sounds of Brazil, look no further than Carnival Do Brazil, who boast three native Brazilians in their line-up, plus one of the best Cavaquinho (Brazilian ukelele) players in the UK.
A genuine Latin celebrity
If you'd like to add a touch of real Brazilian glamour to your event, book Brazilian carnival band Multi Bloco right now! During June and July, the band will be joined by Fabio Allman, who co-wrote the theme song for the FIFA World Cup and performs with one of the biggest Rio carnival bands. How cool is that!
Extra fun for your Brazilian-themed party
Now it's time to add those little extras that'll turn your party into the hottest ticket in town.
• Make each guest feel like a star with comedy paparazzi or news crew interviewing them on their way in!
Set up a Brazilian cocktail bar, manned by expert bartenders, Mixology, creating the national drink of Brazil, the Caipirinha, a tongue-tingling blend of cachaça rum, lime juice and sugar.
Amaze your guests with the amazing moves and tricks of a football juggler, proving that when it comes to footballs, Maradonna definitely hasn't got the monopoly on handballs during the World Cup!
Complete your Brazilian theme by decorating your party venue in the colours of the Brazilian flag (yellow, blue and green), and evoke the feel of Copacabana Beach with flags, bunting, a sand pit and the odd palm tree!
Invite your guests to dress up, with the prize for the most exotic costume/feathers/fruit basket headdress.
Brazil on a budget
If your budget and space is limited, there are plenty of great value options on offer to give your guests a terrific time.
The Latamba Show Band can provide dancers and a singer performing to backing tracks, for a taste of the dances of Brazil like the Carnival Samba, Salsa, Cha Cha, Lambada, and Axe’, but without the space requirements and higher costs of a live band.
Or, hire a Latin and salsa band or duo to greet your guests as they arrive, and entertain them at half time too. Guitar duo Sin Compas play a crowd-pleasing blend of gypsy hotclub, flamenco, jazz and contemporary classical influences.
