The fight against violence has been one of the main issues in this party, which is considered the largest popular party in the world.

Anyway, some special care is never too much:

• Take out with you only the money you intend to spend that day, and always have change

• Take also an ID

• It is important to have the address of where you are staying and a contact phone number in a piece of paper

• Leave all jewelry and valuable objects in the hotel or in the place where you are staying

• Wear comfortable snickers or sports shoes, never sandals

• Try to stay always with your group

• Avoid leaving the parade/bloco during the circuit

• If you need to go through a trio elétrico, wait in a safe place until the music stops or until the trios has passed

• Do not take cameras (only dischargeable)

• If you are driving, don't drink

• Before leaving, apply a large amount of suntan lotion

• Eat well, but light

• Drink a lot of water
