About This Event
The 10th edition of this festival fills the village of Ponta do Sol with capoeira, Brazilian dance, theatre, music and exhibitions, under the theme “Choosing to Live”. Good options for families: the free open-air exhibition “Chegámos pelo Mar” on Avenida do Mar, which tells how everyday foods reached Madeira; the comic exhibition made with local schools; live painting by Dalila Souto; the capoeira circle at Largo do Pelourinho on Friday 13 at 19:00; and Saturday and Sunday workshops at Campo da Praia (capoeira 10:00–14:00, open to young people, teenagers and adults; Brazilian dance 16:30–17:30; €10 per person each). Evening shows have their own conditions, and one is rated M/16, so check the programme and book before you go. The festival opens on Thursday 12 at 19:00, and the last session starts on Sunday 15 at 18:00.
