Chamego Forró Festival is back!

One year on from the craziness of Chamego 2023, we are getting ready to do it all over again!

Sticking with our winning formula, the organisers of Forró Family and Forro Fest UK, are inviting you back for a long weekend of forró injected madness in one of the UK's most enticing seaside towns. Just 1.5 hours from London, Brighton is the perfect location for 4 nights of parties including live music and DJs, plenty of workshops plus loads of time to spend on the beach, shopping in Brighton's famous Lanes, eating the best fish 'n' chips, enjoying the fresh sea air.. and of course dancing forró! 

We can guarantee the best live music combined with DJ's ready to take you on a forró musical voyage through the ages as well as teachers to help you learn some new moves and make new friends! 

Once again, Friday, Saturday and Sunday Parties will all be held at Brighthelm Centre, just a few minutes from Brighton Station!
