Couple holds gender reveal during parade at Carnaval in BH

A couple celebrated their baby's gender reveal during a parade at Carnaval in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.

During the Carnaval festivities in Belo Horizonte on February 16, a couple named Carol and Felipe held a gender reveal celebration amidst the vibrant atmosphere of the Havayanas Usadas parade. This special moment took place on Avenida dos Andradas, where the engaged couple awaited the gender revelation of their expected child. Prior to the announcement, Carol shared that she was four months pregnant and they had yet to learn the sex of their baby, adding suspense to the occasion.

The reporter Júlio César Santos from TV Globo conducted a countdown for the reveal, heightening the anticipation for the couple and the crowd. As part of the reveal, a friend placed a hat on Carol indicating the baby's sex, before the official announcement was made. The moment culminated in joy when the baby was revealed to be a girl, with the couple choosing the name Bia. Felipe expressed his excitement and love for their future daughter in a heartfelt declaration.

Havayanas Usadas is a popular bloco (a street group) that was established in 2017 by a collective of artists and cultural producers, aiming to merge the lively spirit of axé music with a carnival setting. This gender reveal during such a festive occasion highlights how personal milestones can be celebrated in the heart of larger community traditions, epitomizing the spirit of Brazilian culture and the significance of family celebrations in public settings.
