The story

Juruti Tribes Festival in Juruti

Juruti Tribes Festival (Festival das Tribos de Juruti) is a community folklore event in the Amazon River town of Juruti, Para, following the regional rival-tribo dance-and-drumming competition format made famous by Parintins Boi-Bumba upriver. Held around July to August, it pairs Amazonian legend and river-life imagery with costume and choreography, though public documentation of its scale, founding year and specific program remains limited.

Juruti sits on the south bank of the Amazon River in western Para, a bauxite-mining town whose cultural calendar leans on the same rival-team folklore format found across the region, most famously at the Parintins Boi-Bumba festival several hours upriver.
