About the Carnival
One of the most anticipated events in the South American calendar, the Rio Carnival brings five days of festivities and a sea of colour to the city in the lead up to Lent. The celebration of Carnival in Rio dates back to the 1700s, with Portuguese settlers bringing their Roman Catholic traditions of excess before the abstinence of Lent to their new home.
Millions take to the streets during the celebrations, as Rio transforms into a never-ending parade of revellers, floats, and adornments – centering around the Sambadrome. Street bands lead the festival as part of over 500 open-air parties throughout the city and along the world-famous Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. Although samba is at the very centre of the carnival, and is a main reason for its success, the festivities in their sum are a celebration of the culture, music, and people of Brazil.


A trip to Rio Carnival is an experience not forgotten in a hurry, from the extremely competitive parades in the Sambadrome of hopefully samba schools hoping to leave a big impression on the judges visually and percussively to the hundreds of partygoers all over the city, soaking up the atmosphere and indulging in the Brazil’s world-famous hospitality.
