São Paulo – The visitors at the greatest international cultural exhibit in Dubai, the Global Village, which takes place every year in the United Arab Emirates, were able to watch yesterday (01), for the first time, four shows with typical Brazilian dances, presented by a group of eight dancers. Rhythms such as the frevo and samba animated the night in the 70 square metres national stage.
This is the first time Brazil participates in the Global Village, which annually gathers exhibits from about 40 countries. The participation at the event takes place through an agreement between the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (CCAB) and the Ministry of Tourism, with the objective of attracting tourists to the country.
The Brazilian shows will take place every day starting at 7 p.m. (local time in Dubai) until the 15th of March.
