Group Dot BR Presents Opa! Carnaval 2025: New York’s Ultimate Brazilian Carnaval Experience at House of Yes

Group Dot BR, New York’s only Brazilian theater company, is thrilled to present Opa! Carnaval 2025, an immersive celebration of Brazilian culture, music, dance, art, and cuisine. The event will take place on March 9th, 2025, from 3 PM to 11 PM at House of Yes (2 Wyckoff Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11237), one of NYC’s most dynamic and artistic venues.

This year’s Opa! Carnaval will be a vibrant feast for the senses, inspired by the legendary energy of Pernambuco State’s Carnaval and featuring characters from Group Dot BR’s acclaimed immersive show, Inside the Wild Heart, based on the works of Clarice Lispector.

 Brazilian Cuisine: Fuel your celebration with mouthwatering dishes from Andréa’s Brazilian Homemade Goods, Mariana Tamiozzy Vegan Chef, and Queijo Mel. Vegan and gluten-free options will be available to keep the energy flowing all day.
