CARNIVAL IN AALBORG WITH SEMENTE DO SAMBA
Something really different - street carnival in Aalborg, Denmark!
A whole city dresses up and celebrates carnival on 2 weekends with international music- and artist groups, a street parade and kids-friendly party throughout the city!
For 32 years Aalborg has been celebrating its carnival, the Danes organize a kind of Venetian carnival with masquerading, Caribbean giant-size figures, nice programm of side events such as bands, the battle of the carnival bands, food boulevard, family fun stuff at Kildepark, stage, party, live music and of course - Samba!
Semente do Samba has been part of the carnival for 3 years now and always invites the European Samba scene to join them for the grand parade and some good sessions. They´ll be playing songs from Rio and Semente´s very own enredo da escola.
Semente do Samba works closely with the university of Aalborg who each year organise a float-contest. The winner with the most fancy and creative float is then Semente do Samba´s trio electrico!
