Centro de Tradicoes Nordestinas Luiz Gonzaga, Cultural center in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The Centro de Tradicoes Nordestinas Luiz Gonzaga occupies a 24,000 square meter pavilion featuring three stages and five plazas named after northeastern artists and cities.

Built in the late 1950s, the pavilion initially hosted international trade exhibitions during President Juscelino Kubitschek's administration before becoming a northeastern cultural center in 2003.

The center preserves northeastern Brazilian traditions through regular performances of forró music, regional cuisine demonstrations, and exhibitions of traditional craftsmanship.

Visitors can find permanent stalls selling northeastern Brazilian products, including traditional foods, handicrafts, and regional merchandise throughout the week.

The center originated from informal gatherings of northeastern migrants who arrived at São Cristóvão field in trucks, celebrating their arrival with music and food.
