Salgueiro Sets Collective Tribute to Rosa Magalhães for Feb. 17 Parade Closer

The homage is conceived as a symbolic journey through her landmark carnivals rather than a biography.

Overview

  • The final float is planned to carry about 80 guests, including carnavalescos from the Special and Access groups, along with friends and longtime collaborators.
  • Queen of bateria Viviane Araújo said the staircase seen at the Jan. 25 rehearsal was a trial for a potential scenic feature that has not yet been approved.
  • She indicated she could traverse the bateria on a moving platform from start to finish if the test is adopted.
  • The school is slated to close the Sapucaí program on Tuesday, Feb. 17, with the enredo “A delirante jornada carnavalesca da professora que não tinha medo de bruxa, de bacalhau e nem do pirata da perna-de-pau”.
  • G1 reports the step-off is expected between 2:30 and 3 a.m., as preparations continue for the tribute to the seven-time champion who died in July 2024.
