WELCOME TO SARAVÁ FEST 2026

Saravá Fest is a free community festival celebrating Afro-Brazilian culture, heritage and diversity in Aotearoa New Zealand.

A space for connection, belonging and cultural exchange, the festival brings together music, dance, food, art, traditions and stories, celebrating Afro-diasporic and Indigenous roots.

At the heart of Saravá Fest is the spirit of exchange — sharing food, art, knowledge and creations while bringing people together. Our market is an important part of this experience, connecting artists, makers, food producers and the wider community.

 

Saravá House — Experience Brazil

New this year, Saravá House is a welcoming space where everyone can experience Brazilian culture through music, dance, movement, games and creativity.

From playful activities to hands-on cultural workshops, Saravá House invites you to move, create, learn and connect while discovering the rhythms, traditions and joyful spirit of Brazil.
