Rio Carnival 2027 Sambadrome Tickets with Round-Trip Transfers and Grandstand Seating

Join Rio's Carnival at the Sapucaí Sambadrome with reserved grandstand seating and hassle-free round-trip transfers.

Getting started

Begin by boarding your designated vehicle for round-trip transfers to the Sapucaí Sambadrome, so you do not need to navigate public transport on parade night. On arrival, follow event staff instructions to enter the venue and reach your assigned grandstand sector. Settle into your reserved seating in the grandstands before the samba schools start their performances.

What to expect

Sapucaí Sambadrome

The Sapucaí Sambadrome is the purpose-built stadium where the Rio Carnival samba schools present their competitive parades in front of thousands of spectators.

Features

• Watch samba schools perform live as they parade down the sambadrome runway, with massive drum sections, precise choreography, and the rhythm that defines Rio Carnival.
• From your reserved seating in the grandstands, view the parades from above, giving you a clear vantage point of floats, elaborate costumes, and the creative themes each school brings to the avenue.
• Use the official Carnaval program included with your ticket to follow the running order, learn the names of the samba schools, and understand the stories, symbols, and judging criteria behind each performance.
• Rely on the included round-trip transfers to and from the Sambadrome so you can focus on the celebration; food and drinks are not included, and there is no private transportation or shuttle service to Recreio and Barra.
