An open-air forró gathering at Lagoa do Jacaré — lively dancers, accordionists, colorful street scenes and lakeside silhouettes. Best photographed in the evening when warm stage lights and string lights create contrast; golden hour works for lakeshore portraits. Public, easy walk-up access with nearby street parking; expect crowds on weekends and during festival nights. Respect dancers’ space and ask before close portraits. Weather: warm, humid — bring protection for gear.
