VIP Carnaval in Rio: the VIP boxes worth the trip
The Rio Carnaval most people know is the one they see on television. What Grossi Group delivers is what happens on the inside.
The Sambódromo stretches 700 meters. Twelve samba schools parade over two days — each with up to 4,000 performers, costumes that take months to create, and storylines that unfold entire narratives in 70 minutes. It is the greatest open-air performance spectacle in the world. And very few people know how to experience it the right way.
The difference between one VIP box and the next
Not every VIP box is the same. The ones Grossi Group selects hold the prime positions along Avenida Marquês de Sapucaí — with a flawless view of the schools as they gather and disperse, a premium open bar, refined cuisine, and the setup that lets you take in the entire parade without ever leaving your seat. The best are booked months in advance. We book them for you.
Beyond the Sambódromo, the program includes access to private parties, curated accommodations across the five days of Carnaval, and a local insider who knows Rio in a way no conventional tour guide ever will.
Salvador and Recife — for those who want to go beyond Rio
Salvador's Carnaval is a different affair: decentralized, electric, lived in the streets. Recife's has frevo and maracatu — recognized as intangible heritage of humanity. Grossi crafts programs for all three destinations, individually or combined.
