A:RPIA:R to Headline Surreal Park Carnival Brazil 2026

Surreal Park has announce its 2026 Carnival edition, set for Sunday 15 February at the venue’s vast 135,000m² complex in Camboriú, Santa Catarina. Among a diverse programme spanning house, tech house, melodic techno, progressive house and Romanian minimal, Romanian trio A:RPIA:R will take centre stage on Nomad, delivering an extended set at one of the world’s largest club venues.
Comprised of Rhadoo, Raresh and Petre Inspirescu, A:RPIA:R have become synonymous with deep, hypnotic minimal and marathon sets, shaping the Romanian sound that continues to influence underground dancefloors globally. Their appearance at Surreal Park positions Nomad as a focal point for minimal and extended sets, offering a dedicated space for detail-driven selections.
Nomad’s programme will be powered by a Funktion-One sound system and further supported by Cesare vs Disorder and Botanic Soundsystem, reinforcing the stage’s commitment to stripped-back, groove-led and long-duration performances.
While Nomad caters to minimal heads, Surreal Park Carnival 2026 also delivers heavyweight programming across its other stages. Ritual, the venue’s largest arena with capacity for over 10,000 people, will host Jamie Jones and Seth Troxler as headliners, alongside Brazilian favourite Beltran, Surreal Park founder Ratier, celebrating 30 years behind the decks in 2026 and Bapp.
The Bells stage will focus on melodic techno and progressive house, led by Ukrainian DJ and producer Miss Monique, joined by Adria, DJ Murphy, Ray and Nezello.
With tens of thousands of attendees expected across three simultaneous stages, Surreal Park Carnival continues to position itself as a key destination for large-scale yet underground-focused programming in South America, with A:RPIA:R’s long-form Nomad set standing out as a major highlight for fans of Romanian minimal.
