Shanghai welcomes Latin carnival 'El Barrio'

This summer, Shanghai will come alive with the sights, sounds and tastes of Latin America as El Barrio, a vibrant Latin carnival, takes over the city for two exciting weekends at The Roof.

El Barrio promises a full cultural immersion with an exciting lineup of live Latin bands, top Latin DJs, a massive one-hour Zumba class, energetic Samba performances, and a diverse market of Latin food, beverage and craft vendors. This family-friendly celebration is designed to bring together locals and expats alike for a unique Latin experience filled with music, dance, flavors and color.
