10 years of BATEKOO: do rolê à retomada 
Ilídio Pinho Auditorium

Created in 2014 in Salvador as a party, BATEKOO has become the largest black and LGBT Brazilian cultural platform in the world. This year marks the platform's 10th anniversary as a black-Brazilian cultural hub, which organises events, training in Afro-Brazilian history and culture, technical training for the cultural market and the creative economy, among the most varied and expansive activities that allow us to celebrate, move and value black people.
