Carnival Ticket Availability

just Take me to the carnival ticket Order Form

We have carnival tickets for grandstands (bleachers) as well as for frisas (boxes) on Sectors 3, 4, 5, 7, 9 and 11, for the following dates:

Saturday, March 5th : A-League Parade
The A-League Parade is as great as the Special League, but cheaper. Parade goes from 8PM to 5AM. The two winning schools will be part of the Special League in the following year, so it’s a big competition, almost same level of Special League only for approximately half of the price! If you are not planning to attend a ball that night, get a carnival ticket and enjoy the parade, for less.

Sunday, March 6th : Special League Parade first day
This is the first day of the Special league parade, with 6 schools, parading from 9PM to 5AM. Carnival Tickets for Sunday and Monday are a bit more pricy.

Monday, March 7th : Special League Parade second day
This is the second day of the Special league parade, with 6 schools, parading from 9PM to 5AM.

Saturday, March 12th: Winners’ Parade
Parade from 9PM to 5 AM. The first five qualified schools will parade to celebrate their achievements. This is a great opportunity to watch the show as the schools members are not under any judgment. So it’s really a relaxed and fun party to watch. Plus the carnival ticket is approximately half of those on fierce competition days. We love the Winners' Parade and we recommend you get your ticket to go see the winners if you are still in town.

Did you know you can also parade with one of the samba schools?
