Resumo: Migration has become an important social phenomenon, and its study is carried out using different approaches and through diverse theoretical perspectives. The social sciences, especially anthropology, allow immigrants, their narratives and actions undertaken when facing the reality of their new country, to be a central point of interest. Brazil, in particular São Paulo City, has received large migrant populational contingents, especially from neighboring countries. Nevertheless, in recent years this welcoming has been harmed due to government policies that, since 2016, with the presidency of Micher Temer, have hindered the integration of these people into Brazilian society. During the government of Jair Bolsoraro, the situation worsened, leading to greater inequality and exclusion (Vargas and Borelli, 2020). This work analyzes the role of one Colombian female migrant collective, Prende la Vela, whose actions are focused on the in-person diffusion of Colombian dances in São Paulo, and due to the pandemic situation of COVID-19, in virtual spaces. The goal of this project was to understand how immigrants occupy their host city through the appropriation of elements of Colombian popular culture, and how the members of this group put into practice their intention to build bridges between Colombia and Brazil, through dancing. The main theoretical-conceptual bases are the approaches of Raymond Williams and Antonio Gramsci, and the comprehension of popular culture as the result of experiences and meanings articulated by the unprivileged classes. Based on this, the particular use of popular culture by the Collective Prende la Vela was analyzed, in contrast with, among other conceptions of Colombian culture, the use of the tradition associated with the nationalist narrative. For this purpose, the dialog will come mainly from Benedict Anderson and Renato Ortiz. Furthermore, our work developed a reflection on identity construction in spaces derived from migratory contexts, having as references Homi Bhabha, Michel Agier, Stuart Hall, and José Manuel Valenzuela Arce. The selected bibliographic references are combined with information collected in the field, based on face-to-face observations, virtual ethnography in social media, and interviews with a semi-structured script, applied to members of the collective. The results of this work are committed to the interpretation of how - from the principles that anchor the conception of national popular culture in its origin country, Colombia - this group/collective establishes new relationships in the host country, Brazil, from the point of view of political demands, cultural mediations, and affective ties
