Arraiá ForAll 2025

Get ready, Brisbane — Arraiá ForAll is coming!

Saturday, June 7th, 2025 | 2 PM – 9 PM | Happy Jane Café, Stafford

Forró Brisbane and Happy Jane Café are teaming up to bring you an unforgettable Festa Junina—Brazil’s iconic winter celebration of country life, music, food, and joy!

Not sure what a Festa Junina is? Picture a classic Aussie bush do—but with vibrant colors, high-energy dancing, traditional Brazilian costumes, and the smell of sweet corn and spices in the air. Originally a Catholic celebration honoring Saint John (São João), this festival has become a lively cultural tradition across Brazil, filled with laughter, rhythm, and nostalgia.

🎉 What’s On:

* Live Forró music & Moda de Viola sets – upbeat, accordion-driven folk music that’ll get your feet moving

* Aussie country vibes with a Brazilian twist — plus surprise guest singers

* Quadrilha dance – a playful, group folk dance you’ll join in on (think square dance meets carnival!)

* Family-friendly games & activities – fun for kids and adults alike

* Traditional Brazilian treats – from popcorn and hot dogs to sweet corn dishes and maybe even the famous "quentão"

* A vibrant, inclusive atmosphere celebrating culture, connection, and good times

👒 Dress the part: Come in your best Festa Junina look—plaid shirts, straw hats, pigtails, and boots are all part of the fun!

Whether you’re Brazilian, Aussie, or just curious—this is your chance to experience a one-of-a-kind winter festival full of heart, rhythm, and flavour. Bring the whole family, grab your tickets early, and get ready to dance, eat, and celebrate Brazilian-style right here in Brisbane!
