Carnaval 2012: Samba School Rehearsals in São Paulo

A Day in Brazil

Anhembi Sambadrome: Where the samba schools of São Paulo present them carnaval

Previously published in adayinbrazil.com technical rehearsals samba schools of Rio de Janeiro, but if you are going to be in São Paulo on the dates previous to the carnival you might well attend one of the numerous rehearsals of the samba schools in the city of São Paulo.

Good to know that the tests are a kind of celebration. No costumes, no giant floats with its special effects. The rehearsals are more to dance, sing the samba school samba, drinking caipirinha (do you know how to prepare?) and beer with friends and celebrate the Brazilian culture in loco.
