Where to get the official tickets for Rio Carnaval in 2026
The official tickets for the 2026 Rio Carnaval can be purchased through Ticketmaster Brazil. It's advisable to buy tickets well in advance, as the Carnival attracts millions of visitors, and popular sectors sell out quickly. Prices vary depending on the sector and type of seating, so review the options carefully before making a selection.
If you miss out on buying official Carnival tickets through Ticketmaster, you will be forced to purchase tickets from a 3rd Party re-seller at a significantly higher price.
