West 46th Street between 5th Avenue and Times Square is also called "Little Brazil Street".
On September 2, 2007, a Brazil festival was held in this area that focused on Brazilian foods and commercial enterprises.
There was a huge turnout for the affair with some music and dancing in the streets, but no carnival like parade with fantastic costumes. The crowds were so large that I could not get close to the limited dancing parties. Here is a sample of some photos of the event.
