Viva Navidad is Viver Brasil’s annual performance at California Adventure Park which Viver Brasil has performed since 2013. In 2023 we will celebrate our 10th performance of Viva Navidad. The show tells the story of two parrots, one from Mexico and one from Brasil, who come together during the holiday season to celebrate their different cultures as one. This show draws people from across the country, warming their hearts with its tale of how the holidays bring families and friends together, who all have different ways of celebrating, but who share those traditions with each other to make the holiday season that much brighter and better.
