Reveillon will be held 31 Dec 2020 to 01 Jan 2021 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Reveillon is Brazil’s biggest New Year party. Réveillon borrows its name from the French, its religion from Africa and the local superstitions ever continue to evolve. In Brazil, New Year celebrations are held on beaches throughout the country. Brazilians have a very special way of seeing the Old Year out, so take good note if you’re planning a trip out there. On the evening of 31st December, the Brazilians dress in white from head to toe before making for the beach, where they dress up their spotlessly white outfits with colourful and eye-catching garlands of flowers. Naturally, you’ll hear all types of non-stop music on the beach, including live performances by samba, rock and even electronic bands. The most important thing is to dance the night away. And to keep up the party spirit and recharge your batteries, there are baskets of fruit and stands with drinks and sandwiches dotted along the beaches. At midnight, the Brazilians welcome in the New Year by lighting up the sky with spectacular firework displays, which are set off from large rafts anchored some 300 metres from the shore. The partying, music, dancing, rhythm and fun last until dawn. And when the sun finally starts to rise over the horizon, it’s time for the first dip in the sea of the year. Reveillon is an event and I like events...
