London-based promoters Columbo Group has announced a new daytime festival for 2026 with Boa Nova.
Taking place at Leyton Jubilee Park on 22 May, the festival will “bring together seminal artists who represent the breadth, diversity, and vibrancy of Brazil’s contemporary music scene,” says the festival.
Set across two stages, Boa Nova Festival will be headlined by Brazilian acts João Gomes, Liniker and Mari Froes. They will be joined by London-based DJ D. Vyzor and a unique tribute to legendary Brazilian musician Tim Maia with ‘A Música De Tim Maia’.
The festival will also host a dedicated stage for Brazilian dance music and culture, curated in partnership with promoters Baile Funk Culture. The stage will welcome Caio Prince, Th4ys, Bronka, DJ Patife and Mango & Ginger to showcase what the festival calls the “contemporary rhythms, electronic influences and Brazilian grooves” of modern Brazilian dance music.
The Boa Nova team said: “After years of sold-out shows at the Jazz Cafe for London’s Brazilian community, we’re excited to bring our most ambitious lineup yet to an outdoor celebration of Brazilian music this May Bank Holiday.”
Tickets for Boa Nova Festival are available now.
