Bolivian Carnival Masquerade & Bingo night!
Sunday 26th February 2023 ~ 7:00pm
Each year on the Saturday before Ash Wednesday, the city of Oruro comes alive hosting the "Carnaval de Oruro'' to the local townsfolk and nearly a million visitors. The Oruro Carnival is more and more famous every year, especially since UNESCO declared it a “Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” in 2001.
However, Oruro is not the only city in Bolivia rich with spectacular folk dances, extravagant costumes and lively music. All Bolivian regions have amazing dances and costumes, so in this online Bingo Game (via Zoom) we are going to celebrate all the wonderful dances and colourful traditions of Bolivia.
Wear your favourite mask and join us on the Zoom Party!
TICKETS £5 per bingo card. Buy as many as you want! There will be fantastic prizes to win on the night! Bingo cards and instructions on how to play on the night will be sent via email once you purchased your tickets.
