”We think a lot too, not letting Valentine's Day go blank. Each in your car, but with the possibility of interacting even at a distance. And, at least remember how good it is to be close, through a living experience, during this pandemic – Of course, with all the security requirements. Ser no Jeunesse Arena, that is completely bare, sem poste, without tree, and without any visual obstacles, we can achieve full visibility of the area. These 4h will not be just to show a movie (where we will have the box office champions), since, let's mix it with show and djs, well low profile. In order to enchant without letting it become commercial, have to be intimate. Our less is more, but it never ceases to be amazing”, complements André Barros.

The project is an extension of what the creators have been promoting all year, with parties linked to unforgettable experiences, like the Allegria Box, New Year's Eve at Morro da Urca, Hotel Nacional and Carnival parties, until New Year's Eve, The Rock Bar, among other parties.
