Casa do Carnaval New York
Welcome to Casa do Carnaval in the heart of New York! We are the premier destination for experiencing the vibrant energy and rich cultural heritage of the Portuguese Carnaval right here in the Big Apple. While our roots are deeply embedded in Portuguese tradition, our presence in New York allows us to share this unique celebration with the diverse and welcoming city.
Carnaval, pronounced "KAR-naw-val," is Portugal's answer to Mardi Gras, a spectacular festival marking the last Friday before Lent. It's a time of unrestrained joy, elaborate parades, and infectious music. At Casa do Carnaval New York, we are dedicated to bringing the authentic spirit of this celebration to our local patrons. Our focus is on creating an immersive experience centered around the Portuguese Carnaval.
Our services are specifically tailored for the New York community. We offer:
Exclusive Parties: Experience nights filled with the sounds of Fado, Forró, and other traditional Portuguese rhythms, accompanied by dazzling costumes and decorations reflecting Carnaval's exuberance. Carnaval Celebrations: We organize special events and themed nights dedicated to Carnaval, providing a space for locals to come together and celebrate. Information Hub: We serve as a resource for New Yorkers interested in learning more about the Portuguese Carnaval, its history, and its vibrant customs. Community Focus: We strive to be an integral part of the New York community, fostering connections through shared cultural experiences.While the soul of Casa do Carnaval originates from Portugal, our New York location ensures that the celebration is accessible and adapted for our local clientele. We aim to transport the excitement of the streets of Lisbon and Porto directly to the energy of New York.
Whether you're a long-time admirer of Portuguese culture or simply looking for a unique and festive night out in New York, Casa do Carnaval offers a distinctive atmosphere. Join us to dance, celebrate, and immerse yourself in the colors and rhythms of Carnaval!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What exactly is Carnaval?
A: Carnaval is a pre-Lenten festival celebrated in many countries, most famously in Portugal. It involves parades, street parties, music, dancing, and wearing costumes, characterized by freedom, celebration, and the release of inhibitions. It's the culmination of the year before the solemn period of Lent.
Q2: How is Carnaval different from Mardi Gras?
A: While both are festive celebrations preceding Lent, they have distinct origins and characteristics. Mardi Gras is strongly associated with French and Catholic traditions, particularly in New Orleans. Carnaval has its roots in Portuguese culture, although it is also celebrated in other countries like Brazil (which heavily influenced Rio's Carnaval). The music, costumes, and specific customs can vary significantly between them.
