The Colourful Rio Carnival

The Carnival in Rio de Janeiro is a world famous festival held before Lent every year and considered the biggest carnival in the world with two million people per day on the streets. The first festivals of Rio date back to 1823.

Preparations for the Rio Carnival go on for months before the actual event itself. If you’re lucky enough to be in Rio during Carnival, you can expect spectacular parades put on by the city’s ‘samba schools’, along with street parties, live Brazilian music and plenty more.
