The port region, which served as a setting for the first chapters of Recife history, every March 12th, throws a party celebrating the capital of Pernambuco birthday. The date, inclusive, is a holiday for the local population. As a tradition, the birthday is celebrated with a cake cut, “Happy Birthday to You” and concerts by famous local artists. The most delicious part of the party memories is that the giant cake is distributed to the public, which faithfully participates in the party every year.
