Eight samba schools close this Saturday night (14) the 2026 Gold Series, the main access division of the Rio de Janeiro Carnival. The associations that pass through the Anhembi Sambódromo catwalk will complete the presentation table that will define the 2026 champion.
However, among the 15 associations competing for the title, only the great champion will guarantee the long-awaited access to the Special Group in 2027. The two schools with the lowest points will be relegated to the Silver Series, starting to parade in the Intendente Magalhães next season.
Celebrities such as the couple Viviane Araújo and Guilherme Militão, Luana Piovani, Regina Volpato, João Pedro Mariano, Raphael Siani, among others, took advantage of the break in their schedule to enjoy Carnival at Marquês de Sapucaí.
