the rehearsals are free to the public and anyone can go along and get a feel for the real parades, viewing the rehearsals from any part of the sambódromo in a relaxed and informal atmosphere, while interacting with the school's supporters.

through watching these dry runs viewers get to see some of the preparation involved, gleaning an idea of the huge amount of organization and planning that is involved in creating the show.

those attending can learn the lyrics of the various samba songs and sing along, experiencing the fantastic and vibrant music of the percussion bands.

these rehearsals are so important to both the schools and the organizations to be governed by an official set of rules laid down by liesa.

for example, the schools must have a minimum of 800 participants at the sambódromo .   arrow-back     arrow-forward
