     In this group, you will be at the FLOATS #5 of the União da Ilha Samba School.

    These are the main floats that help tell the story of the samba school with a theme. They are in general the big attraction of the carnival parade. Each float has a designated and limited number of costumes to be released and are on a first-come-first-serve basis. Usually if you do not mind heights, you will be just fine and have an unbelievable time samba dancing.

    If you prefer the ground floor costumes, we can coordinate that as well. The difference between the ground floor and the float, is that in general the samba school will require that on floats, that you know the samba school theme songs, called "samba enredo". Also, samba schools will have you sign a release form, releasing them from any responsibility (liability) in case of an accident; after all you will be moving on a car/float, and dancing at the same time. If you abandon your float, the school will most probably loose points. So this is a position that requires dedication and responsibility. You must know the samba theme song prior to your parade. The school will be judged on that. We suggest you to listen and practice the music/lyrics before your arrival.

    Below are some information about your samba school's 2017 theme:

    All of them have a theme and we will present you with the costumes for men or woman, the number of the float you will be parading and all costumes are to be picked up 1 week before the event/parade. Delays will happen and you might pick up the costume on the days or hours before. We will inform you as much as we can on the pick up and delivery. Once you pick up the costume we suggest you to try the costume and if there are any complains do it to the school in person. Once you remove the costume you are responsible for your costumes and no refund is acceptable. Your costume has only a symbolic price as you are paying to participate on a samba parade on a float or not. In general terms the costume for União da Ilha samba school has a symbolic price of U$150 for materials. Customer is paying the balance of the price for parading during 60 minutes on a float for the samba school. This is standard in many samba schools.
