FORRÓ DO ZÉ

RAIZ SESSIONS #001

A sunset-to-night Forró experience rooted in Brazilian music, dance and community. 🇧🇷

Forró do Zé is the first RAIZ SESSION — bringing the sounds, movement and spirit of Forró Pé de Serra to the Northside of Brisbane.

Come early for a relaxed afternoon by the water, live acoustic music and a beautiful Brisbane sunset. As the evening unfolds, we'll move into the dance floor for a night of Forró with DJs, rhythm and community connection.

🎸 LIVE MUSIC
A special live session featuring vocals and acoustic guitar, bringing the intimate sounds of traditional Brazilian roots music.

Expect the classic sounds and rhythms of Forró. Two DJs will keep the music flowing with non-stop Forró made for dancing, connecting and moving together.

💃 DANCE FLOOR
The dance will take over later in the evening, keeping the Forró flowing until 11pm.

🌅 THE RAIZ EXPERIENCE
Come for the music. Stay for the people.

Whether you're already a Forró dancer or you've never danced Forró before, you're welcome. No experience necessary — just come with an open mind and ready to move.
