Lagos Throws a Rio-Style Carnival!

Did you know Lagos has its own version of Rio Carnival? Thousands hit the streets in wild costumes, stilt-walking, and dragon dances, all to celebrate the city’s Afro-Brazilian roots. After slavery ended in Brazil, some returned to Nigeria, bringing vibrant music, food, and traditions that still light up Lagos today. It’s not just a party—it’s a living legacy of resilience, hope, and cultural pride. Who else wants to join next year? #LagosCarnival #AfroBrazilian #CulturalHeritage #CarnivalVibes #HistoryMatters #Entertainment
