2008 Carnatal on the Streets Around Machadão Stadium

Carnatal 2009 will take place December 3rd through December 6th around Machadão Stadium in Natal.  Carnatal is Brazil’s largest micareta (off-season Carnival).  Expect crowds of 300,000 with 40,000 of them being tourists.  Carnatal is the kickoff of the season of Summer in Christmas.  Come see why Carnatal is better than Carnival in Rio de Janeiro!
