Defected returns to Brazil for two parties in 2022

Defected has announced that it will be returning to Brazil in the new year to host two nights of parties.

The first party on Friday April 1 will be held at São Paulo’s ARCA, which is situated in the centre of the city and has already hosted events from Circoloco, Solomun and Elrow.

The next day, Saturday April 2, the party heads over to the award-winning venue, Green Valley in Camboriú.

Line-ups for both events are still to be announced but partygoers can expect “massive headline DJs alongside Defected’s beloved residents for two nights of house hedonism across one of the world’s most vibrant dance scenes,” according to Defected.

In June 2021, the Green Valley nightclub which some describe as a festival, was almost completely destroyed by a freak cyclone, so this party will be a momentous moment as it returns fully recovered.

Defected has hosted many other events in the past including this year’s Defected Croatia which was a six-day event that saw the likes of Armand Van Helden, Gorgon City, Honey Dijon, Moodymann, Purple Disco Machine and many more.
