Sectors 2 to 5: You’ll get an incredible view of the warm-up, get a glimpse of each school’s backstage.

Sectors 6, 7, 8: Located in the center of Sambadrome Avenue, these sectors offer a complete view of the entire parade. You will see the schools will be well formed on the Avenue and you will be close to the jurors.

Sector 9: We consider this grandstand the best of all for its panoramic view and for being the ONLY NUMBERED SEAT SECTOR. In addition, it is on the side of DRUMS SECTION RETREAT (thrilling rhythm movement and one of the highlights of the parade).

Sectors 10 and 11: Located at the end of the avenue, it gives you an insight into the Samba Schools and the Drums Section Retreat (bateria). A great option.
