South American food, drinks and music are becoming more and more popular. Even at our Halloween event we see the influence from 'Dia de los Muertos.'
It's not uncommon to meet people here in Abruzzo who are originally from Argentina or Venezuela and their influence is bringing many exciting new flavours, sounds and ideas. Our Festa Sud Americana will bring an amalgamation of some of the things people love most about south american cultures. Food, music, dance, colours... We have influences from many countries including, but not limited, to Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela and Argentina. The farm will be decorated with bright colours and we hope you will come dressed in bright colours too. Read on to find out more... |
What is there to do?Music will be the foundation of the day, with tunes playing to set the atmosphere. We will have moments of music for Salsa dancing, more traditional south american sounds and some more progressive music at some points.
The farm will be available to visit throughout the day and there will be an activity table for the children to create and decorate various things in the theme of the day. We will also have some salsa lessons for all ages! Food and drink in the theme of the event will be available to purchase on the day, but we will also have our traditional Abruzzese options available. There will be ample free seating and space to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. |
In theme with the day, the children's entertainment will be focused around various latino activities.
There will be a craft table allowing the children to make and colour things that they can take home. We will have some group play activities, including playing with giant coloured parachute, and activities of dance and music where children and adults will be invited to learn some dancing techniques! The children will get tired, so we will of course have some quieter moments, with stories from South America for them to relax and enjoy listening to. To finish off the day the kids can enjoy breaking a giant pinata filled with candy! The activities are all included in the entry price. Throughout the day there will be face painting and donkey/pony rides available included in the entry price (see below). |
