In addition to the presence of the police, with an staff of 10,000 security professionals for the 21 stages around the city, the turn of 2025 also had 26,000 cameras from the Sampa program
The feeling of was cited as one of the positive points of the 20th edition of DA. The 2022 nightmare, where scenes of trawlers marked the cultural turn, were far from happening. The second day of the event followed the same logic as the first, with an ostensive amount of police patrolling the Anhangabaú Valley and the central region of the city. In addition to the presence of the police, with a staff of 10,000 security professionals for the 21 stages around the city, the turn of 2025 also had 26,000 cameras of the Sampa program, according to the city.
Following the logic of the last editions, the City of São Paulo has isolated the main stage of the region, surrounding him with siding and bars. In the commemorative edition of twenty years of Virada Cultural, the arrangement of the event most resembled a private music festival. Much of the public praised the new organization, but it was not said about the state of cleaning of the central arena. With almost 24 hours of continuous spectacle, the most varied waste accumulated on the floor of the site. If it is quite true that the situation was not so critical when at dawn, dirt was still remarkable.
The worst, however, was reserved for the bathrooms. Dozens of chemical booths were scattered throughout the arena and their location has been right, with little waiting time in the rows for the bathroom. The odor of the booths, however, became impractical on the second day. In regions near the bathrooms, few ventured to spend a lot of time due to the bad smell. With just one hydration point around the whole arena, the strong heat punished fans of Duchess, Liniker and João Gomes throughout the day. Despite this, the mood throughout Sunday was pleasant and fun.
At 9am, Olodum opened the work of the main stage. It was only with Duchess at 12h that the audience truly cheered up. One of the best Brazilian rap of recent years, the 25 -year -old singer did well after being last -minute to replace Marina Lima, who was announced as the attraction of the time, but did not close the contract with the city. With an anti -racist and feminist speech, the singer bet on her most famous songs such as spindle, Taurus and 99 problems. The presentation was also attended by DJ Midi and rapper Danzo.
