Carnival is approaching, and with it the traditional Samba School Parade. The event is a decades-old tradition in various parts of Brazil, mainly in the state capitals of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
And as tickets for both are highly sought after and sell out in a matter of hours, TV stations take advantage of the popularity of Carnival to broadcast in full parades in both cities, as well as counting the votes to find out which schools will win.
Today TecMundo brings the dates, times, and channels and streaming services that will broadcast the 2023 Samba Schools Parade. Check it out!
