Carnival is the most important and awaited popular feast in Brazil. Different style celebrations take place all over the country:
- In Rio city, Samba Schools put on spectacular Carnival Parades at the local Sambodrome, each one bringing thousands of members dressed in special costumes singing and dancing a rehearsed Samba routine;
- In Salvador city, “Trios Eletricos” that are huge moving stages with massive sound systems and performing singers, lead the crowds packed all around them over the streets of the city. Such groups will perform for up to eight consecutive hours moving over a circuit of more than 10km in one day;
- Other large and nice Samba School parades also happen in other cities with the one in São Paulo city as the best option to Rio’s. The same happens with other street Carnival parties, with the ones in Recife and Olinda being the most famous after Salvador. |
