As part of the Big Bang Festival happening in Dublin this weekend, Morro 16 are leading a collaborative performance with a bateria of 60 drummers and musicians made up from members of samba groups from all over Ireland as well as special guest appearances from some of our Brazilian musician friends in Dublin.
This group are called "Bloco de Dublin" and we aim to bring a taste of Rio de Janeiro to Dublin by performing an authentic "samba enredo".
The performance will take place in St. Stephen's Green on Sunday afternoon, August 21st.

Morro 16 at Waterford Tall Ships Festival
We have just got back from a great day out at Waterford.
After a debut at Waterford Spraoi last year, Morro 16 were invited back to Waterford this year to bring the sounds of Rio to Ireland's largest outdoor festival of 2011.
This year, Morro 16 teamed up with our fabulous new dancer Jill to add a touch of spice to the day.
Here are some photos from the day....
