Fogo de Chão Launches Limited-Edition Calendar to Celebrate National Gaucho Day

Global Restaurant Brand Honors Its Gauchos with a 16-Month Calendar on September 20th with a Portion of All Calendar Proceeds Being Donated to No Kid Hungry


DALLAS, Sept. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fogo de Chão, the internationally-renowned restaurant from Brazil, announces its first-ever Gaucho calendar in celebration of National Gaucho Day on September 20th. The 16-month calendar showcases humorous and relatable dining moments along with a menu discovery each month that highlights Fogo’s culinary innovations including a Dry-Aged Tomahawk Ribeye, Beet Tartare and more. With limited quantities available at all U.S. locations starting September 20th, guests can purchase this calendar for $20 while supplies last.

Held annually on September 20th, National Gaucho Day is a Southern Brazilian holiday that symbolizes the Gaucho culture of teamwork, excellence, integrity, and humility. This calendar is a nod to the brand’s Gaucho Chefs who are at the core of Fogo’s signature hospitality and experiential dining. The calendar also encourages guests to dine at every daypart to experience the culinary art of churrasco that Fogo’s Gauchos are known for globally.

Fogo continues its philanthropic commitment to help feed those most vulnerable in their communities through its 8-year relationship with No Kid Hungry. To help reach a new record donation this year, Fogo will donate $5 of each Gaucho calendar sale to the organization. For every $5 donation, No Kid Hungry can provide 50 meals to children in need of nutritional meals. 

“In honor of National Gaucho Day, we are excited to launch a calendar that celebrates our team of Gaucho Chefs in a fun and engaging way, just like our signature dining experience that we’re known for,” said Barry McGowan, Chief Executive Officer at Fogo de Chão. “We also look forward to continuing to support No Kid Hungry with a portion of the calendar proceeds going towards making a meaningful impact on ending childhood hunger in America.”
