One of the biggest carnivals staged outside Brazil, and
undoubtedly Austin's biggest and reportedly wildest party, is the
euphoric Carnaval Brasiliero, a tradition in the city every
February since it was started on a small scale in 1975 by a group
of home-sick Brazilian students at the local university. Carnaval
was adopted enthusiastically by Austinites and today the crowds of
more than 5,00 partygoers pack into the Palmer Events Centre to
samba, march and drum the cold winter night away. Li Event Date: 2 February 2013 Event Time: 8pm to 1:30am Venue: Palmer Events Centre Website:www.sambaparty.com
