Abstract
Due to its natural beauty and cultural richness, the capital Recife is one of the Brazilian destinations that stand out the most, especially during the carnival period. With the support of bibliographic and documentary research on Afro Ethnic Tourism and Intangible Heritage, this work aims to analyze the Maracatu Nação in the event Night of the Silent Drums in Recife PE, as well as its contribution to the strengthening of the Afro-Brazilian identity. Through the bibliographic survey and field research, it was observed that the attractiveness of the Maracatu groups has high potential to preserve the Afro-Pernambuco Culture and contribute to the development of tourist activity in the capital of Pernambuco.
