An arts space in Great Yarmouth will be celebrating the Rio Carnival with its own colourful festival.
The Drill House on York Road will be bursting with colour and music in celebration of the world's largest carnival on Friday, February 17.
Carnaval welcomes a fusion of international festivity featuring music, Samba, circus, dance, Portuguese food and workshops.
The free event - put together by local Portuguese organisers from Culture Events and Reprezent Project, Visit Great Yarmouth and Out There Arts - offers a variety of musical and circus acts, a family-friendly fiesta and a rhino parading down King Street.
Visitors can also join in the celebrations with a fancy dress competition hosted during the event.
A family-friendly fiesta kicks off the afternoon, 1pm-6pm and includes craft workshops, music, circus performances and even a rhino rampage parading down King Street.
The Rhino Rampage parade will start at the Drill House at 3pm where attendees will grab a freshly created rhino mask and storm around the area.
The parade will end at the Drill House, concluding with special performances from Trio Alcatifa, Drillaz Circus School, Loveboat DJs and a Samba drumming workshop from Fine City Samba.
The celebrations continue from 8pm, with pulsating Latin rhythms and stirring circus performances.
Supporting the late-night dance party are the Loveboat DJs and circus performances from Out There Arts resident artists, Duo Vita and Dulce Duca.
Out There Arts chief executive Joe Mackintosh said: "Bringing local people together to celebrate shared and distinct histories with each other is the key part of this event.
"With a jam-packed programme of events and workshops, audiences not only get a chance to watch the celebrations but also be an important part of it."
People are also welcome to an afternoon workshop on February 11, from 2.30pm. Visitors can get a head start on their rhino mask creation as well as find their rhythm with Samba drumming workshops led by Fine City Samba.
