Formerly held at the beginning of September, Yoyogi Park's annual Brazilian festival now takes place at the height of the summer – just to ensure maximum sweatiness, we presume. Expect big crowds, exposed midriffs and plenty of hip-shaking, all fuelled by generous quantities of churrasco barbecue, acai berries and caipirinhas. The stage performances include capoeira, samba and appearances by the likes of musician Davi Zew's and the Horizon Sky band, culminating in a Sunday headlining set by funky singer and Brazilian Idol judge Paula Lima.
