RIO CARNIVAL 2021

Samba Parade Tickets

      Rio de Janeiro, Brazil  

ABOUT THE SAMBÓDROMO 

​

The Sambodromo is divided into Sectors, which are sections of the venue. The odd-numbered sectors are all on the one side and the even-numbered on the other. The numbers increase towards to end of the Parading Avenue. Most sectors consist of Grandstands, Open Front Boxes and Luxury Suites. Sectors 12 and 13 have rows of allocated chairs and a place for wheelchairs. Even numbered Sectors 2, 4, 6 and 8 have recently been constructed, boast newer facilities and allow access to a special area where live music is played on Main Parade nights.

GRANDSTAND TIPS

​

  • This is the kind of seat for those people who don't to spend too much money, but still want to have a good view.

  • All special sectors – 2 to 11 – offer a great view of the parade, but there are some differences to be considered.

  • You get in direct contact with local people, and you can feel the beat.

  • The system is "arrive early and get the best positions", because there aren't numbered seats, except in sector 9, which is the tourist sector, and a little bit more expensive and the only sector with assigned grandstand seat space in the cement.

  • The drummer's niches are located between sectors 9 and 11. Select these sectors if you love the sound of drums.

  • The lower the sambadrome section, the lesser time you will have without entertainment. When one schools is about to end the parade, the next is already warming up. Example: sectors 2 and 3 are entertained for more time than sectors 10 and 11.

  • Sitting in the concrete is worth because of the great experience that you will have.

​

You can order tickets for most Grandstand Sectors (2-11). To decide on the sector, you should consider how long you want to see the Parade from the front, at which "height" of the Parading Avenue you wish to be: 

  • Sectors in the middle or slightly towards the end of the runway are considered the best.

  • Tickets for sectors at the far end of the Parading Avenue are much cheaper.

  • Paying just a little bit more makes a big difference when it comes to the view and the "intensity" of the Parade.
