To mark this auspicious occasion Batmacumba has lined up a Bacchanalian batucada beat-fest involving three of London s finest samba schools fresh from the Notting Hill Carnival with their respective sambas de enredo. The samba schools featured include London School of Samba, the oldest of the three schools founded in 1984, Quilombo do Samba, founded by Mestre Geraldo and the newest school to have emerged, Paraiso School of Samba.
