Welcome to the Brisbane Samba School!
Sunday, 26 August 2007 10:00

Brisbane Samba School 'G.R.E.S. Unidos da Primavera' is Brisbane's first Samba School.

Founded in 2003, it quickly became one of Brisbane's most spectacular music groups, with up to 30 percussionists performing live at such landmark events as Gold Coast Indy, the Australia Day parade and the Queensland Multicultural Festival.

We are always looking for even more percussionists and want YOU to join us!

Percussion classes are held on a weekly basis and are open to everyone. No experience is necessary, and fun is guaranteed! Our goal is to have at least 100 drummers and dancers!

This Sunday 11 October 2009, the Brisbane Samba School will play in SunCorp stadium again to support Brisbane Roar in their match against Gold Coast United. We will play both outside the stadium to welcome fans, on the field, and maybe even during the game to give the game a little bit of extra spice and to support the Orange Army!
 
Sat 12 Jul 08 - Queensland again Roars against Racism!
Monday, 07 July 2008 13:06
The Brisbane Samba School again has been invited to support "Queensland Roars against Racism". The highlight of this event is the soccer match between Queensland Roar and Brazilian soccer team Palmeiras from Sao Paolo. This match will be held on Saturday 12 July in SunCorp Stadium.

We will again demonstrate that we are the only group that can play acoustically in a big stadium, and for this occassion we have teamed up with Groove Brazil, a Brisbane based dance school that will join our performance with 50 dancers. And that is on top of the 30 percussionists from the Samba School!

We will play in the stadium during half time of both the main game and the celebrity match before that. You'll also find us outside the stadium for a number of short workshops between 5pm and 7pm. And, leading up to this, you'll find us on Friday 11 July around 1pm in the city at Reddacliffe place (next to the new City Council building).
