Baquetum once again joins the Pride Parade on August 1 in Stockholm. For the third year in a row, we will contribute with energy, loud drums and Brazilian rhythms in the parade, consisting of 10 000 participants. Last year, the parade attracted a crowd of over 100 000 people who came to enjoy the colorful parade. The parade starts at Engelbrektsgatan at 1 p.m. and ends in Tantolunden at approximate 4 p.m. Don’t miss us!
On June 27, Baquetum supported a good cause by performing for Amnesty at Medborgarplatsen in Stockholm. The act was part of Amnesty International’s global campaign on the theme “Human Dignity”. Starting at 11 a.m. at an half-empty square, we woke up fellow citizens with drums and Amnesty representatives’ speeches. After an hour, we had attracted a mixed audience of sleepy Stockholmers, kids and dancing characters. For more photos from this performance, go to Photos.
Baquetum had a blast as opening act at Brazilian superstar Lenine’s concert at Mosebacke on April 2, 2009. See more video clips from the concert under Videos.
