The Torres Folia de Rua Carnival will take place on the 10th and 12th of February, on Avenida Beira-Mar in front of Praça Claudino Nunes Pereira. The place is already known to revelers and has been the venue for the city’s Street Carnival party for many years. Bands will rock the festivities. The party is free, open to the public and is part of the “The Best of Summer” program, which features sports, artistic and leisure activities. The City Hall is preparing to hold a beautiful, organized and safe party. The expectation is that thousands of people will enjoy the Folia de Rua Carnival and flock to Av. Beira-Mar de Torres.
A structure will be set up to present the bands. Traffic will undergo changes during the festival dates, changes that will be announced closer to the Carnival date. The tents of the Military Brigade, the Civil Police and the Health Department will be set up next to Praça Claudino Nunes Pereira, as happened on New Year’s Eve. Recently, the Secretary of Culture and Sports, João Alexandre Negrini, and directors of the Department met with the Secretariat of Works and Public Services, through the Traffic Directorate and with representatives of the security forces of Torres and the Secretariat of Health to plan the activity. Everyone is committed and united to make a great party happen.
On festival days, at 6:30 am, the streets around the stage will close. At 8pm, DJ and band performances are expected to start. The festivities on the 10th and 12th will be animated by different bands. The end of the festivities is scheduled for 3am. The attractions will be announced soon.
