Rio Sambódromo celebrates 40 years with different lighting on the first day of Grupo Especial parades

The first day of Grupo Especial parades, in Rio de Janeiro, marked the 40th anniversary of the Sambadrome. And the lights of Marquês de Sapucaí were part of the presentations.

 

Porto da Pedra

Porto da Pedra spent 12 years away from the Special Group. On the way back, he found a different catwalk. The lights go out and the crowd's gaze turns to the main spot. It is the Carnival tradition being renewed with stage lighting.

And it's hard for your eyes to believe what you're seeing. The floating alchemist is a ballerina held by her hair. The illuminated Bahian women look like heaven on Earth.

One of the cars had problems entering Sapucaí and a woman was slightly injured in the impact. Throughout the parade, the school known as Tigre de São Gonçalo materialized on the avenue the wonders of Lunário Perpétuo, a medieval encyclopedia of popular wisdom.

Beija Flor

Innovating is always important. But how good it is to hear such a well-known voice.

“This is the 48th carnival. It’s like it was the first time”, says Neguinho from Beija-flor.

Lulled by the singer's voice, the straw Hummingbird flew to Maceió. The public dived on the beaches of Alagoas and even saw bubbles at the bottom of the sea. Did the lights dance to the beat of the drums - or was it the drums that played in time with the lights? The parade was the coronation of Ras Gonguila, the man from Alagoas who called himself prince of Ethiopia. Whether it was true no one knows, but, at least for one night, Gonguila was king of Nilópolis and Sapucaí.

Salgueiro

At the carnival of lights, Salgueiro didn't even start parading and already lit up the catwalk with music alone. The public immediately recognized the tribute to Quinho, the school's interpreter for more than 30 years, who died in January. The 2024 samba also came to be remembered for decades.

Hutukara! A cry in defense of the Yanomami people. The school impressed with its giant sculptures. But the greatest of the giants was a human being. Davi Kopenawa, the defender of the Yanomami people, the leader, the writer, the shaman, the voice that, when he speaks, the whole world listens to.

“My message to the general world to feel like removing intruders from my home. The fight is to protect the soul of the Amazon forest”, says Davi Kopenawa.

Grande Rio

Grande Rio discovered that every Brazilian has a jaguar inside them. Become a jaguar to fight for some cause. Turning into a jaguar to grow larger, like the 8 m animal in the front committee.

“This is the most beautiful show in the world, and we are here just waiting for Paolla (Oliveira) to show us”, says actress Taís Araújo.

Queen jaguar, jaguar Paolla Oliveira, who taught the art of transforming herself at Sapucaí.
