Carnival @ Guanabara
Brazilian bar Guanabara is promising to bring some much-needed music and happiness into our lives with the return of its six-day Carnival.
DJ Limão prepares for the party with a warm-up session on Wednesday 14 February, complete with a six-piece live band and samba lessons, and Paraiso School of Samba continues the preamble at The Scream Of Carnival on Thursday.
The carnival itself kicks off on Friday with a launch party hosted by DJ Russ Jones and features a 28-piece bateria and sparkly dancers of the London School of Samba.
There'll be a masked ball on Saturday, followed by a special carnival set from Zeu Azevedo and banda Forrodaqui on Sunday and a Dancehall Carnival for the grand finale on Monday 19 February.
Carnival at Guanabara, Parker Street, corner of Drury Lane, WC2B. From 14 to 19 February. Tel: 020 7242 8600 or visit www.guanabara.co.uk for more information
