On February 6, 2026, the beloved Bloco Chá da Alice will come back to celebrate Pre-Carnival in Belo Horizonte, following a three-year hiatus due to the pandemic. The event will feature the popular band Babado Novo as it parades through the streets, starting at 2 PM from Praça Tiradentes in the Funcionários neighborhood. The bloco, known for its whimsical theme inspired by 'Alice in Wonderland', combines music, fantasy, and performance to create a vibrant atmosphere.

This carnival season is significant as it marks the return of various street parties in Brazil, which were halted due to health restrictions. The local media, including G1, has provided extensive coverage of the celebrations to guide participants on different bloco options available for the day. Additionally, the city is enthusiastic about welcoming back the festivities that form an integral part of its cultural identity, thus highlighting the importance of community and connection through music and celebration.

Bloco Chá da Alice stands out not only for its playful approach but also for its initiative to offer a free parade accessible to all attendees. As the city prepares for this major event, other blocs will also be out in force, promising a festival filled with joy and participation, rocking to the rhythms of samba and other traditional carnival music. The programming page lists various participating blocs, inviting revelers to select their preferred celebrations for an unforgettable carnival experience.
