Friday, Sept. 25: Revela Microfestivais at CCBel
The latest schedule published by Fortaleza City Hall states that Revela Microfestivais starts at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, September 25. The event features Nega Lu, Mallu Viturino and Caio Castelo and is organized in partnership with Quitanda. The project uses small festivals featuring Fortaleza artists to expand the presence of original music and encourage cultural use of public spaces.
There is one important timing detail. A monthly schedule published at the beginning of September listed the Revela event for 6:30 p.m., while the official update dated September 21 lists 6:00 p.m. Because the later publication is more recent, 6:00 p.m. is the better reference for planning, although visitors should still check for any same-day update.
Saturday, Sept. 26: Sarau Surdará in Libras and Portuguese
On Saturday, September 26, at 6:00 p.m., Centro Cultural Belchior hosts Sarau Surdará, an event connected to Deaf Awareness Month. According to City Hall, the program includes new presentations, translations of classic works and performances in Libras and Portuguese. An open segment for spontaneous audience presentations is also planned.
The event will be hosted by Lyvia Cruz, a Deaf person. Its stated purpose is to value the literary and artistic production of the Deaf community, Libras and Deaf leadership. The gathering is part of Festival Surdará and is described by the organizers as a bilingual cultural event.
Location and admission
Centro Cultural Belchior is located at Rua dos Pacajús, 123, Praia de Iracema, Fortaleza. For the events on September 25 and 26, City Hall lists free admission and an all-ages rating. The latest official notice does not mention advance registration for either Revela Microfestivais or Sarau Surdará.
The venue also has the Murá food space, which City Hall says operates from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday. This service is separate from the cultural program and does not change the free admission status of the listed events.
Accessibility: what is confirmed
At Sarau Surdará, communication accessibility is explicitly built into the program, with performances in Libras and Portuguese and a focus on participation and artistic production by the Deaf community. The official article does not detail, for these two dates, features such as audio description, accessible routes, reserved seating or other physical accommodations. Anyone who needs a specific resource should confirm directly with the venue before visiting.
