Brazil Mud Carnival will be held 01 Mar 2025 in Paraty, Brazil. Brazil Mud Carnival is the rising of one of Brazilian carnival´s most bizarre blocks: The Mud Block. On the following year, a larger group gathered and left in a block on a carnival´s Saturday, representing a prehistoric tribe: muddy from head to toes, covered in rags, carrying skulls, lianas and bones and yelling uga, uga, rá, rá. Tourists who saw such behavior sought to imitate it, resulting in the birth of the now annual Mud Carnival in 1986. In recent years, the event has attracted more than 3,000 tourists, with an increasing number of foreign visitors coming to enjoy the party at Paraty. Brazil Mud Carnival has a playful atmosphere as tourists bathe in mud and willingly coat each other in dirt before singing and dancing to live music at the tranquil beachside location. It’s probably not a good idea to wear your finest clothes to this party and get dirty in the best possible way as they throw themselves into deposits of black, mineral-rich slime, emerging covered head-to-toe in the sludge. Brazil Mud Carnival is an event and I like events...

Paraty´s Tourism Secretary campaignes in Brazil Mud Carnival :

the organizers and Paraty´s Tourism Secretary have been making campaignes with the participants, through local media and informative leaflets, about the importance of not smudge walls, cars or people that are passing by the streets, and, by that, honoring the name of the block and helping to preserve the tradition.

Every year, newspapers, magazines and TV shows surrender to the creativity of this block and dedicate stories to it. The Mud Block makes its route through “Praia do Jabaquara” (“Jabaquara´s Beach”) and, some years, the block is authorized to enter the Historic Center.

When there´s not even one negative spirit wandering around Paraty´s Carnival, the block says goodbye with a bath in the river or in the sea, leaving a message of peace so the city carnival can be as it has always been: a party of joy.
