Between June 19 and 22, 2025, Parque da Água Branca was transformed into Vila Abobrinha itself to host the first edition of Arraiá do Chico Bento, a project created by InHaus in partnership with MSP Studios. The event celebrated Brazilian folk culture with warmth, tradition, and countless colorful flags in the sky.
The four-day event featured more than 30 hours of programming, including live music, cultural performances, traditional square dancing (quadrilhas), children’s activities, festive food, and the beloved characters Chico Bento, Zé Lelé, Rosinha, Hiro, and Tábata.
The event also included infrastructure focused on family well-being, such as a diaper-changing station, breastfeeding area, and support staff. Accessibility was a priority, with sign language interpreters (Libras), a Quiet Room, and various inclusion support resources.
