Three days of free food and music on Rio's Lagoa are set to commence this weekend, as part of the Festival Harmonia. The event, organized around Brazil's six great landscapes, will see fifteen chefs and seven music acts perform for attendees. Toquinho, a guitarist and songwriter who worked with Vinícius de Moraes, will perform on Friday evening, while Erick Jacquin, a French chef from MasterChef Brasil, will be teaching cooking classes throughout the festival.

The festival will include cooking classes, tasting sessions, gastronomic islands with dishes prepared by five chefs, and a small producers' market. Entry is free, but dishes at the gastronomic islands will cost between R$10 and R$48, roughly US$2 to US$9. The organisers have not released daily hours or parking information, so attendees are advised to check the festival's Instagram account for updates.
