Carnival parades at the Sambódromo, Rio Open tennis and major concerts offer different reasons to visit Rio. Business events also take place at Riocentro, Grand Hyatt and Cidade das Artes. Choose a programme that interests you, check its dates and venue, then plan journeys from your hotel or airport.
Planning your journey
Choose an event and a day first, then decide where to set off from: your hotel, apartment or airport. Include the specific venue and the number of passengers in your enquiry.
After the event
Plan the return around your evening: you might stay for dinner, wait for the last performance or leave earlier. Discuss the time and meeting place separately.
When flying to Rio, check your airport code: GIG is Galeão and SDU is Santos Dumont. They are separate airports. Plan the airport-to-city journey and the trip from your hotel to an event separately.
Galeão (GIG) → Rio de Janeiro · Santos Dumont (SDU) → Rio de Janeiro
