10 YEARS OF PARAÍSO
It's hard to believe that this is our 10th year and our 10th carnival. Our 2011 theme celebrates this achievement and looks to the next 10 years. Bruno Ribas, Mestre Esteves and other Rio carnival stars will join in our parade at Notting Hill 2011 - so get ready for some fun! ... and learn our 2011 samba enredo!
Bruno is the singer for GRES Unidos da Tijuca, one of Rio's most famous samba schools who were the champions of Rio Carnival in 2010 and came second in 2011.
Paraiso's portuguese website is live. The main pages are complete and work continues on remaining pages. Portuguese version: Karim de Oliveira.
