AquaRio has prepared a special pre-carnaval program aimed at children and families between February 6 and 8. During the period, the largest marine aquarium in South America promotes activities that unite music, recreation and creative workshops inspired by the marine universe, incorporating the climate of folia to the visitation experience.
The agenda begins on Friday (6), with the presentation of the drums of the School of Samba Independent Youth of Father Miguel. The attraction takes place in the AquaRio lobby in two hours, from 11:30 to 12:00 and from 12:30 to 1:00. On Saturday (7), one of the highlights of the program is the Mini Seres do Mar block, which is presented from 11am to 12:15pm, also in the lobby. With a repertoire inspired by the seas, waters and marine animals, the block brings together musicians and artists in a formation that mixes instruments such as violin, sanfona and percussion. Still on Saturday, from 12:30 to 4:30, the space receives the Recreation of Carnaval with Uncle Alex. The activity includes carnival dance, traditional games and workshops of masks and musical instruments produced with recyclable materials.
On Sunday (8), the program follows with Fabulous Recreation, from 11am to 3pm. Activities include creative workshops of carnival masks with the theme of marine animals, interactive recreation with live music and facial painting.
