Viva's secret orders

The “Macao International Parade” is one of the main events in celebration of the Anniversary of Macao's Handover to China. This year, VIVA received a secret order from the heavens to gather folklore from China and the Portuguese-speaking countries. 

VIVA went to several countries to meet the just rooster, the enamored Sun, the thankful crocodile, the white-nosed monkey who plays drum, the protector of nature… VIVA obtains magic powers from each legend and gathers the elite artists from Macao and all over the world in order to offer the public a feast of “Love, Peace and Cultural Integration” in celebration of the handover!
