Copacabana is the place to be unless you can afford to be in a boat off the beach. Grab a table at one of the side-walk cafes but make sure you get a reservation cause the place is packed. Here is some info:

In Rio de Janeiro, on December 31, millions of people flock to the beaches to celebrate. Most go to the huge beach party at Copacabana for the New Year’s eve at Copacabana, Bikini & Champagne festivities. However, this isn’t the only place to enjoy the merriment and the spectacular fireworks display at midnight. Live shows take place on stages erected for the event on the beaches, and the hotels and restaurants offer parties and special menus. The entire city frolics with music, dancing and revelry to mimic carnaval.
It’s best to make your reservations in advance. Take advantage of the resources to help you plan your trip to Rio de Janeiro and enjoy your New Year’s Eve, véspera de ano novo.
In addition to enjoying the New Year’s Eve merriment, the crowds are also at the beach to celebrate the Festa de Iemanjá.
Iemanjá is the Goddess of the Water, the mother of all the gods in the religion of Brazil. She is offered flowers, gifts, perfume and rice which are set into little boats and cast adrift into the sea, or else tossed directly into the water.
This is done to propitiate the goddess and curry favor for the year to come, as well as to thank her for past favors. It is a joyful event. She is also celebrated in song. You can find statues of Iemanjá in any of her many guises in the macumba shops. |
