Carnival 2005 in Rio de Janeiro - Brazil - the greatest party on earth! Which Samba school will win the competition?

2004-11-23
The highlight of the carnival show is the competition between the samba schools. Foreigners can also parade with the schools if they pay for costumes and learn the theme songs and dances in the weeks before the big party. The coming carnival in Rio will be arranged 5 - 8 February 2005.

800 000 tourists visited Rio de Janerio in Brazil during the great arrangement last time (21 - 24 February 2004). For most of them it was a experience of lifetime, but for others it has been a terrible encounter with violence and criminal acitivities. 

This sucessfull carnival has also a sad side. The Tourist Police have noted a new record: each hour during the 5 days an tourist has been robbed.

Anyway, according to experts the last arrangement was the best ever. Not even the hard rain stopped the fantastic carnival.

It happens at the peak of summer, when Cariocas show their best side. They really know how to party. Their creativity in decorations, figures and colourful costumes goes far most people imaginations.

Festivities attract thousands of people from all corners of the world. Carnival, as spelled in Portuguese, is a 4-day celebration. The Samba School competion is connected with high prestige.
