The blocos should account for 20% of all the city’s Carnival festivities—which also include samba school parades as well as privately held balls and parties.
The president of Riotur noted that the pandemic is not over yet. “We’re still in the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, our position is: without a vaccine, we can’t estimate when Carnival Rio 2021 may take place. We’ll be able to devise a plan and talk about dates after it’s here,” he went on to say.
