Londoners looking to experience the vibrant atmosphere of one of Brazil’s most cherished cultural celebrations can head to Amazónico Mayfair this June, as the acclaimed Berkeley Square destination launches a month-long Festa Junina takeover.
Inspired by Brazil’s annual midsummer festival, the immersive programme combines live entertainment, exclusive food and drink offerings, and a striking artistic collaboration, transforming the restaurant into a colourful celebration of Brazilian culture.
What is Festa Junina?
Festa Junina is one of Brazil’s most popular annual festivals, celebrated throughout June with music, dancing, traditional food, and colourful decorations. Rooted in rural traditions, the event brings communities together through shared experiences and festivities.
This year, visitors to London can experience the spirit of the celebration without leaving the capital thanks to the special programme at Amazónico Mayfair.

Exclusive Art Installation by Gisella Stapleton
A major highlight of the celebrations is a bespoke art installation created in collaboration with London-based Peruvian artist Gisella Stapleton.
Known for her vibrant, botanically inspired artwork that celebrates Latin American storytelling and heritage, Stapleton has designed ten hand-painted balões — traditional Festa Junina lanterns — which form part of a larger installation comprising 50 suspended pieces displayed throughout Amazónico’s bar area.
The collaboration also extends to the drinks menu, with the artist creating 40 hand-painted clay cocktail vessels used to serve a limited-edition Brazilian cocktail.
Brazilian-Inspired Cocktails and Dining Experiences
Guests can enjoy an exclusive Festa Junina cocktail featuring cachaça, pineapple, ají panca and lime, served in Stapleton’s bespoke hand-painted glasses.
Alongside the drinks programme, Amazónico has introduced a selection of Brazilian-inspired dishes specially created for the celebrations, offering guests an authentic taste of the festival.
The restaurant has become one of London’s most sought-after dining destinations thanks to its immersive rainforest-inspired interiors and Latin American menu.
