Florianopolis Gay Carnival 2023

Info

Florianopolis Gay Carnival takes place from 16th to 23rd February 2023.

Also known as Floripa Gay Carnival. The Florianopolis Carnival is held in the small town of Florianopolis, Santa Catarina, in South Brazil. It’s German, Portuguese and Spanish influences have made this small town a tourist hotspot. Florianopolis only ranks 2nd after Rio for being the Carnival hub for lesbians and gay tourists who want to party at the carnival and at the same time experience the relaxing beach environment.

Being one of the best carnival spots for gay and lesbians, the carnival is also famous for the numerous street parades held in the city as well as the excellent performances of all the samba schools participating in the annual Florianopolis carnival. Because of the small population in this town, unlike the Rio Parade, there are only 3 major schools that join in the Parade competition for the Florianopolis Carnival: the Uniao da Ilha da Magia, Consulado, and the Copa Lord.
