CLICK TO SEE THE LUXURY SUITE LOCATION IN THE SAMBADROME MAPLuxury Suite - Our Handling fee is only US$10 per ticket, NOT 10%.
CLICK HERE TO SEE THE LUXURY SUITE LOCATION AT THE SAMBADROMELuxury Suites, Camarotes or covered boxes tickets are available all along the Rio sambodromo, from Sector 2 to Sector 11. These are considered to be the most desired tickets, offering a great view of the show from a private suite with first-class waiter service, buffet and open bar. Luxury Suites may not be your best bet: because the suite window is not big enough for the 12 people per window to watch the show at the same time, we only recommend it for closed groups of 12, 24 or 36 people. Open Boxes might be a better option if you don't want to share the tiny space on the window with other guests.
