- I've lived in Brazil for a number of years now, and always found Festa Juninas quite strange. In this video I explain why!

Just to explain what you saw: these "June Parties" are called Midsummer in English. It's the same festival portrayed in the famous comedy written by William Shakespeare, _A_ _Midsummer_ _Night's_ _Dream_ . Of course, in the play Midsummer wasn't yet transformed into a Christian celebration.
Feast of St. John the Baptist celebrations have fallen out of favor in England since the Protestant Reformation. Today they're only really present in English speaking countries in the Swedish American community.
The *bonfire, poles and peasant theme* are part of the European tradition. The *food* is because of a native harvest festival that coincided with the Catholic party. The *Quadrille* is a 19th-century ballroom dance that inexplicably became really popular at Festas Juninas, so we always have them.
You don't need to know any of that to enjoy these "June Parties", 99% of Brazilians know nothing about what I wrote. But I thought it would be nice for you to know the background, as it really is something foreigners are usually quite weirded out.
I knew about it.
Hey Vítor, thanks a lot for this explanation. I am really touched that you wrote so much to explain this tradition to me!
I love Midsummer Night’s Dream, and hadn’t connected the two events until reading your comment.
Thanks again!
Vítor Boldrini 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm a brazilian and is 100% true. No one knows about that(Me included before reading this.), all we know is there is parties everywhere with tons o delicious food that are super cheap and we can get drunk in churches, jump over fires, climb poles, use colorfull akward outfits, dance like kids and all with a priest by your side doing the same.
after carnaval, June Parties are the best thing about beeing a Brazilian.
I like even more than carnaval haha But in carnaval we get the whole week off so is hard to choose...
Prefiro festa junina
For me... both sucks :D
June is the only month of the year in which you can freely blow stuff up 💜
That's enough for me
Em 1:55 🤣 🤣 🤣 | Em 2:06 Nosso inverno é em Junho e UK passa o Natal no inverno, por isso bebemos vinho quente em épocas diferentes. Nosso Natal é verão, não tem condições de bebermos vinho quente no verão. 🤣🤣🤣
1:00 “my regular style” haaaaaaaaaaahahahahaha
Vc é MUITO engraçado Andrew! Como um brasileiro 😏😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 ! I m just loving your chanel! ❤️🥰
hahaha,,, enjoy the way you please. For me, June parties are more about the food and the excitement of the people around than anything else.
Thanks for the tip Alexandre!
Lmao 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
You are so fun!
😘😘😘
June is winter for us - A winter party. That's why we have hot beaverages and foods. Dance together, fire, etc.
Didn't know hot wine was a traditional Christmas drink in UK. The festivities are different but either are celebrate during autumn/ winter which happen in different months of the year on each country.
hehehehehehe. You are very funny Andrew! You could try a junine dance with your shirt.
Hey Camille, thanks a lot for the complement!
Na Inglaterra TB tem "festa junina" fazem fogueira e assam Marshmello na fogueira eu participei junto com crianças e adultos.Cool!
I love june parties... yes it is nostalgic...every brazilian have already danced it... eheheheh the dance is a wedding... and you the other are the invited ones...so they dance... here in the country side of Minas Gerais we have the whole crew... the whole package of wedding... its funny...even if you dont like...at least the food is amazing.... did you drink Quentão?
I did! Drinking the traditional drinks is maybe the best part of this experience for me! Ha ha!
AAAAAAAA EU TO MORRENDO COM A PARTE DA MARIAH HAHAHAHAHA
Kkkk! Eu sempre falo sobre ela, né! ❤️❤️❤️
Dude, you're so funny lol
Bora ali na barraca do Beijo, Andrew?
Opa 😉
English with Andrew Te aguardo hehe.
June parties are the best. I wait for it every year. But unfortunately this 2020... 😭
so June Party kind of brought the nostalgic side of you by case, I wonder if is it like this for everyone who lived abroad and comes to Brazil? 🤔 that's actually interesting...
De Minas pra cima não se bebe vinho quente como quentão, o quentão é feito de cachaça. Obviamente estaremos em Junho e Julho em pleno inverno e por isso as bebidas são aquecidas.
Hot wine because it is winter time is on and here in UK is summer time
Vista-se de caipira! Beba mais quentao! ...e dance dance dance!
Like for that bit with the wine and X-mas flashbacks :D
Thanks a lot Ilona!
Brasília june parties are medieval rural Portuguese catholic parties. Peasants were poor
I just love festa junina!!!!!
Maybe one day I will grow to love it!
during the entire year I make fun of people using checked shirts and in June I stop
A melhor festa junina é a do nordeste do Brasil.
Pq aí festas são diferente do SP?
Vem para o nordeste conhecer uma festa junina muito mais animada do que qualquer festa junina do sul do país. Aqui é bem diferente do sul do país. você conheceu o cantor Luíz Gonzaga?, Ouça um forró gostoso e verdadeiro desse cantor. ele tem varias músicas, ele era chamado de rei do baião, as músicas dele são tipicamente para o são joão do nordeste.
@@EnglishwithAndrew Porque e a tradição no nordeste em SP é "adaptada"
Nas festas juninas em Portugal eles comem sardinhas.
Hhahahahaha i just loved this video 😂😂😂😂😂
2:41 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Hey Andrew , do you like Pé de moleque?
Andrew faz um vídeo falando do que você mais gosta no Brasil.
E boa idea! Eu vou fazer, obrigado 😘
june parties? go to campina grande - pb, the greatest saint john's party of the world!!!
1:36 Quadrilhas !!!! ruclips.net/video/lfl0yPZLsBU/видео.html
Andrew, do you know a popular dance called "ciranda"? ruclips.net/video/jG7qyjFAK48/видео.html (the guy at minute 0:24 must be YOU).
Since when do Brazilians need any justification to have a good party?
Gente servem vinho quente na festa junina ou eu entendi errado??? E isso msm ? Kkkk
e inverno no Brasil, na epoca da festa juninha e muitas partes do Brasil faz mutio frio nessa epoca,,por isso as bebidas sao quentes,,,,um vinho c,misturado com aguardente e gengibre
Deixe de ser chato e vá dançar quadrilha e comer muita comida junina! hahaha
Ha ha! Talvez eu só vou comer (e beber!!!) sem quadrilha!!!
