Jout Jout returned to Instagram on 11 November 2024 to announce Ali Fora, a paid, in-person “encontro conversativo” (conversational gathering) scheduled for 21 December at the Teatro Municipal in Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais. It was a return to social media and to work through face-to-face conversation—not an announcement that she was resuming regular online video publishing. The event has since taken place.
What was Ali Fora?
Ali Fora was a gathering designed around conversation rather than a conventional talk or online broadcast. Ahead of the event, Jout Jout described wanting to speak with people, hear how they were feeling, exchange views and share what she had noticed. She said she wanted a smaller group and a moment of presence, and did not want the meeting to be online. UOL Splash’s 22 December 2024 interview records her explanation.
That format mattered in light of her break from making videos. In the event description quoted by UOL, she said: “Eu parei de fazer vídeos por motivos vários, mas um deles, um dos mais importantes, é que eu não tinha mais muito o que falar, sabe como?” (“I stopped making videos for various reasons, but one of the most important was that I didn’t have much more to say, you know?”). The English text here is a translation; the original Portuguese was reported by UOL Splash / Estadão Conteúdo on 13 November 2024.
How the gathering worked
The meeting was deliberately offline. Jout Jout asked attendees to put their phones in airplane mode and not turn the experience into social-media posts or audiovisual recordings. The request made Ali Fora a shared, in-person experience rather than material intended for reposting. UOL’s 26 December 2024 account describes the event after it happened.
#1 Best Overall
UOL reported that the venue had capacity for 280 people and that tickets sold out in about five minutes. These are reported venue and sellout figures, not independently audited attendance statistics. The event was held at the Teatro Municipal in Ouro Preto.
What did tickets cost?
A November 2024 report said tickets were to be sold through Sympla for R$60 at half price or R$120 at full price. Those were historical prices for this event, not current ticket offers; Ali Fora took place on 21 December 2024. The announcement report gives the listed prices and sales platform.

The available reports establish what happened with Ali Fora, but do not establish whether she has since announced more events or resumed regular social-media activity.
