A sector with a view

The Sambadrome was designed in a manner that spectators get the best view possible in comfortable surroundings. The Sambodromo is separated into blocks, known as sectors, with individual numbered seats or bleachers with open seating on a first-come-first-serve basis. What matters most is being at the right place so that you can get the best view of the parade. We advise you to acquaint yourself with the schedule, location, and seating arrangements before you book your tickets. Moreover, you first need to decide which day you prefer to attend. Championship Sunday and Monday are the most sought after days of the Rio Carnival parades. The only difference between Monday and Sunday is the actual selection of schools that will take part in the parades. If you wish to see a particular school’s performance, then be sure to purchase a ticket for the correct day.

Sambadrome’s prime sectors

Each block has its advantages and disadvantages when it comes to viewing the Rio Carnval Samba parade. Tickets in Sectors 3, 5, 7 and 9 offer some of the best views of the Carnival runway. Since most judges are seated in Sector 7, you can bet these offer some of the best views in the house. Sector 9 is reserved mainly for tourists, and has the most expensive seats in the house. You may find a few locals there, but if you really want to participate in the festivities, you need to choose other sectors and be amongst the cariocas who sure know how to party. Sectors 2, 4, 6, 8 are the new sectors of the new Sambadrome’s structure facing sectors 3,5,7 and 9. On the even side, sector 8 is the one nearby where most of the judges are seated therefore is considered the best grandstands area.
