Rio de Janeiro Street carnival 2019 festivities:
By the end of the week, thousands of people are expected to dance and sing after musical groups such as the Banda de Ipanema, the Bloco das Carmelitas or the Orquestra Voadora in the streets of this Brazilian city where carnival is already taking place.

Considered by the Cariocas as "the biggest party in the world," the figures generated by the Rio de Janeiro carnival are the best proof of its unparalleled magnitude.

The municipal tourism company, Riotur, estimates that 1.8 million tourists will visit Rio de Janeiro during this year's carnival, which means that the total public, including cariocas and foreigners, should reach 5 million people, 10% more than last year.

According to the Rio de Janeiro Hotel Association, the occupancy rate during carnival week should be 90%.

Visitors should spend in the city about about 970 million dollars.
