The World Fun Cup success!



On 15th July Festinho teamed up with Braziliality to create The World Fun Cup at Favela Chic in London in aid of ABC.

The World Fun Cup Celebrated the warm up to Festinho and Braziliality's 2nd anniversary and was a huge success. With Heather McClell kicking us off with her dulcet tones, Everaldo Pereira performing a beautiful dance piece and Natema getting everyone dancing, it was a great night. Plus, we raised over £400 for ABC.
