Mardi Gras came early this year, but for the Brazilian Students Association, March is its time to party.

Tomorrow night members of the association will hold its yearly Carnaval celebration at Abe and Jake’s Landing, 8 E. Sixth St.

Barbara Alves, São Paulo senior and vice president of the association, said KU alumni from Brazil come from all over the United States for the party.

Student Union Activities has sold out of tickets for the event. Alves said that Abe and Jake’s held 900 people and that Carnaval sold out every year.

The association will pick up about 150 more tickets for SUA to sell. The remaining tickets will be sold in front of Abe and Jake’s between 4 and 6 p.m. Saturday. The tickets will be sold for $15.

Brent Metz, assistant director of Latin American studies, said that Carnaval was a celebration where the “poor and rich would come together to let off some steam.”
