Why Reveillon 2020?
Rio de Janeiro is one of the best places in the world to celebrate New Year's Eve. After Carnaval, New Year’s Eve in Rio de Janeiro is the biggest party of the year in the Marvellous City.
These celebrations take place on beaches throughout Brazil. The best-known and most carefully organised are those held in Rio de Janeiro, especially on Copacabana Beach which attracts around two million people, including 700,000 tourists eager to take part in a party they’ll never forget.
Réveillon is one of the festival heavyweight contenders not only with the masses of bodies but in the sheer amount of explosives that go into its more than 20-minute show. It’s one of the world’s largest fireworks displays and the barges line the whole beach so everyone has a front row seat to the pyrotechnics.
White dress:
Live international bands and samba line the Avenue Atlantica and it all really starts shaking around 8 p.m. But the most iconic part of the festival is the all-white dress code. White symbolizes purity, peace and renewal while appeasing Iemanjá, the goddess of the sea. With high hopes for the New Year and honoring the year behind us, white is right. Add a touch of red for romance, a dash of green for health, a few yellow flowers for wealth, a bit of blue for peace—apparently the little things don’t go unnoticed by the immortals. Just stay away from the color black, it’s considered bad luck and bad taste on this superstitious night.
Tips:
-
Dress all in white! You won’t be alone.
-
Start at Copacabana, after midnight head over to Ipanema. This is the best order of events.
-
Check out the samba music on the Avenue Atlantica. It’s lively.
-
Follow the traditions. It’s a superstitious night and better to be safe than sorry.
- After midnight, jump over seven waves. Start your New Year’s off right and honor Iemanjá, the goddess of the sea.

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...
