Sambodromo

The Sambadrome is the heart and soul of the Carnival in Rio. It is place we go to see the Samba Schools competing against each other in a 75-minute performance. Each Samba School has an average of 350 musicians and over 3000 members ready to perform in front of thousands of people in the Sambadrome. There are 13 Samba Schools and half of them perform on Sunday night and the other half on Monday night.

We get a chance to participate in this grand performance in an elaborate costume.

We participate in this competition by dancing and singing along in a tailor-made costume in the biggest carnival parade in the world!
