Cultural Night Experience Capoeira, Samba and Drumming

About this activity

Our Cultural Night is truly special because you are not watching a performance created for tourists. You are stepping into the living world of capoeira at one of the most significant places in its history.

Founded in 1937 by Mestre Bimba, the creator of Capoeira Regional, this historic school represents an important chapter in the development and preservation of capoeira in Brazil. Today, its traditions continue through the Mestres, students, and practitioners who keep this cultural heritage alive.

Unlike rehearsed shows, every Capoeira Roda unfolds spontaneously through live music, movement, rhythm, and the shared energy of those present. Combined with samba, drumming, and the vibrant spirit of Bahia, the experience offers a genuine connection to Afro-Brazilian culture.

It is an opportunity to experience capoeira in its cultural home, appreciate the traditions behind the movements and music, and discover a side of Salvador that goes beyond the usual tourist attractions.
