Terms & Conditions

Last updated: November 12, 2026

1. Who we are

Carnaval Experience Rio arranges Samba School parade participation, Sambadrome tickets, private frisas and hospitality experiences for travelers during Rio Carnival. We act as an intermediary between you and the Samba Schools, venues and hospitality partners that deliver each experience.

2. Inquiries and quotations

Submitting the form on this website is a request for availability and prices, not a booking. No fixed prices are published online. Every experience is quoted individually according to the date, the Samba School, the sector of the Sambadrome and the number of participants.

3. Availability and inclusions

Parade participation is subject to availability and to each Samba School's own requirements (for example, costume sizing, rehearsal attendance, age limits and conduct on the avenue). Exact inclusions, such as the costume, guidance and costume collection assistance, are confirmed in writing before any payment is made.

4. Booking and payment

A booking is confirmed only after we send you a written confirmation and the agreed payment has been received. Payment terms, deadlines and accepted methods are stated in your quotation.

5. Changes and cancellations

Costumes and Sambadrome tickets are produced and allocated in advance by third parties and are generally non-refundable once purchased. Any cancellation or change conditions that apply to your booking are stated in your quotation and confirmation. We will always do our best to help if your plans change.

6. Official schedule

Parade dates, times and the running order are set by the Carnival organizers and may change. We are not responsible for changes, delays or cancellations decided by the organizers, the Samba Schools or public authorities, but we will inform you as soon as we are notified.

7. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for your travel documents, travel insurance, arriving on time for costume collection and the parade, and following the instructions of your Samba School. Participation in a parade is a physical activity carried out at your own risk.

8. Liability

To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to the amount paid to us for the experience concerned. We are not liable for indirect losses such as travel costs, accommodation or missed connections.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Brazil. Any dispute will be handled by the courts of Rio de Janeiro, without prejudice to consumer protection rules that apply to you.
