This weekend, there’s going to be a great event in Nova Iguaçu! It’s the Escambau Festival, which is taking over Praça do Skate on Saturday, with exhibitions, fashion, visual arts, vinyl, gastronomy and much more! Check out the program!
Festival opens 2025 season in Baixada Fluminense
More than just a fair, the Escambau Festival is a meeting between art, territory and community. This is because, with more than ten editions already held, the project aims to stimulate the local cultural scene and bring creators, author brands and the public closer together.
Thus, the event brings together local exhibitors, who present works in fashion, visual arts, design, printed matter, handicrafts and gastronomy. In addition, the Festival consolidates itself as a space for the circulation of the creative economy in Baixada Fluminense.
This is the first edition of 2025 and the Festival will hold two more themed editions in the same location, prioritizing access, diversity and the strengthening of local networks.
