The second event took place the following year and was attended by around 50,000 people, amongst which were big and celebrated figures in carioca culture, including actress and model Luciana Picorelly.

Two electric sound cars filled the air with rhythms of merriment and joy. The guiding slogan was 'Against Homophobia, Defending Citizenship. A Celebration of the Liberty to Be and Love.'

These parades were organized by the União Pró-Melhoramentos dos Moradores da Rocinha - UPMMR (Union for the Improvement of Residents of Rocinha) and the Associação dos Moradores e Amigos do Bairro Barcellos - AMABB (Association of Residents and the Friends of Barcellos District).  arrow-back      arrow-forward
