In what was one of loom’s most successful events in its nearly 6-year history, loom’s annual carnaval celebration returns with more flare, more confetti, more performances and more controlled chaos. It’s a Saturday night loom dedicated to the rhythmic, seductive and celebratory elements of Brasil’s carnaval festival.
Dance to the sounds of live Brasilian percussion over of samba, batucada, tropicale, baile funk and south-of-the-equator house music spun in loom’s signature multicultural take by loom’s co-creator, Brent Crampton. Drink the summery classic lime and cachaca infused caipirinhas from the cart. Jump into the samba parade amongst flamboyant & fleshy carnaval costumes, confetti & feverishly shaking tambourines. Join the swirling mix of tropical colors with complimentary carnaval masks for the first 100 guests, or enjoy our body painting artists who’ll mask your final indulgent outbursts.
This celebration will hit capacity. Our doors open at 8 pm so please arrive early.
