Brazil: Halloween

Although not a traditional Brazilian holiday, Halloween is increasingly celebrated here. Of course the primary influence for Halloween is North American, who themselves were influenced by their Celtic immigrants.

One place you‘re likely to see Halloween celebrated is at one of the many English schools around São Paulo. They can go to surprising amounts of effort, including outfit competitions, decorations (with the inevitable pumpkins, spiders webs and witches brooms), and trick and treat, albeit typically localised to classes in the school.

Children aren‘t the only ones to celebrate, and you are likely to see some bars and clubs, and even Bingo halls getting in on the Halloween action and being suitably decorated as well as running corresponding events.


in mexico we celebrate " el dia de los muertos" and in brazil people celebrate tha day "Todos los Santos."
