From a mass karaoke machine to a marathon performance of Bach, the festival offers many more free experiences than just a fireworks display.

How to do Riverfire, and the best free things at Brisbane Festival

Pato Fu, the beloved indie band from Minas Gerais, is set to headline the Festival Laços in Juiz de Fora, Brazil, today. The free show will take place at Praça Tarcísio Delgado from 2 p.m., transforming the central square into a bustling open-air event filled with music, art, culture, and a food court. The Festival Laços, or 'Festival of Ties,' is an afternoon and evening of concerts, art, and cultural activities designed to bring the community together.

Alongside Pato Fu's performance, the square will host additional musical acts, a food court, and activity areas, making it a full family-friendly day rather than just a show. Juiz de Fora, a university city with a thriving cultural scene, is known for its affordability and quality of life for long-stay foreigners. With free flagship shows like today's being typical of the city's public calendar, arriving by mid-afternoon is recommended to secure a good spot in the often crowded Praça Tarcísio Delgado.
