The Champion's Parade, also known as 'Desfile das Campeãs', will take place at Sapucaí on Saturday, featuring six samba schools from the Special Group of Rio's carnival. The order of performances is significant as it is reversed from their rankings in the overall competition, with the sixth-place school, Mangueira, opening the show and the champion, Viradouro, closing the parade as the last performer.

The event is a celebratory culmination of the carnival season, allowing the top schools to showcase their performances again, emphasizing the vibrant culture and competition inherent to samba culture in Brazil. Each school prepares extensively for this moment, seeking to entertain thousands of spectators while celebrating their artistry and community pride.

As time has shown, these parades not only serve as an entertainment spectacle but also as an essential part of Brazil's cultural identity, where samba dances and costumes reflect history, creativity, and social commentary. The excitement surrounding the event draws both local attendees and international visitors, highlighting Rio de Janeiro's pivotal role in the world of carnival celebrations.
