Our Local Experts say:

Shows and Entertainment is another difficult category to organize as some of the best shows happen on Rio’s streets and beaches every day. However, a visit to some of Rio’s dance clubs and theatres make for great entertainment.

Two of the greatest shows on earth occur each December 31st and the five days preceding Easter. Naturally, we are referring to the New Year’s Eve Réveillon on Copacabana beach and the Carnival celebrations that occur throughout Rio with the famous parade presented in Rio's Sambodromo.
