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).
