These fanciful whimsical outfits add to the glittering Carnival atmosphere. Plus there is nothing like a dazzling costume to get your feet tapping. The dance floors at the Copacabana Palace are always packed with spectacular costumes competing for space, both horizontally and vertically.
Red Carpet Glamour
The Magic Ball at the Copacabana Palace is without doubt the most elite event of the Rio Carnival. Photographers from the press and other media are kept busy with each celebrity trying to outdo the other while posing in their gorgeous gowns and costumes. Previous editions of Baile do Copaa have attracted such names as Paris Hilton and Gerald Butler along with a host of South American film stars and socialites. It is the place to see and be seen and few would miss the opportunity to hobnob with big international names in such a high-status setting.
Nonstop Entertainment
The Copacabana Palace Ball is an occasion to dance the night away to the hip-twitching Samba music of South America. Entertainers are hired to entice guests and partygoers to the dance floors. Live bands in every ballroom make sure that wherever you are, the music will be in your blood. The Ball is also an opportunity to mingle and mix with an eclectic and diverse group of people who frequent the Copacabana Palace. You could be talking to a Brazilian politician one moment and a German tourist the next. Of course, the glitterati is entertainment enough, if star gazing is your preferred choice.
