Carnival counting in Santos 2026: g1 broadcasts live
The results of the 2024 Santos Carnival will be announced live on g1.
The results of the 2024 Santos Carnival samba school parades will be counted and announced at the Teatro Municipal Braz Cubas in Santos, São Paulo. The event will take place on Tuesday, the 10th, beginning at noon, and will feature the scoring for both the Access Group and the Special Group. g1 will broadcast the entire event live to allow fans and participants to follow the results as they are revealed.
Access to the counting event will be limited to five representatives from each samba school, all of whom must be properly accredited. This ensures that the event maintains a level of exclusivity and security while allowing schools to monitor their performance directly. The judging panel consists of 36 judges, with four assigned to evaluate each criterion, all of whom are selected by the Liga Independente e Cultural das Escolas de Samba de Santos (LICESS).
An important transparency measure in the judging process is that if a judge fails to assign a score to any samba school, all scores given by that judge will be nullified. This regulation underscores the importance of accountability in the judging process and ensures that the final scores reflect a comprehensive assessment across all entries in the competition, enhancing the overall credibility of the carnival.
