Description
Immerse yourself in the magical world of the Rio Carnival and enjoy the unforgettable experience of parading on a float in the heart of the Sambodrome, surrounded by dancers, percussion, and sequins. You'll be part of a real Brazilian samba school, accompanied by a professional French dancer who has been a muse and drum queen for several years.
Before departure, you will receive all the necessary information: meeting time, location, and parade group, as well as the official music of the parade (samba-enredo), which you will have to learn by heart. You don't need to know how to dance, but you will need a lot of energy, presence, smiles, and motivation: you will be at the heart of the show.
A video meeting will be organized beforehand to answer all your questions, prepare you as best as possible, and provide you with the school's instructions in a friendly atmosphere.
On the big day, you will collect your spectacular costume (included in the price), and depending on the model assigned, you can take part or all of the costume with you as a souvenir. Then, head to the Sambodrome to parade on a float, in the middle of the crowd, for an exceptional 60 to 90 minutes.
This experience is open to everyone, as long as you want to experience a memorable, festive, and unique moment. An authentic, guided, and supervised immersion to discover the Carnival from the inside and leave with a sparkle in your eyes.
