Carnival in Bahia is it, baby! That is, of course, if parties and crowds are
your thing. Nowhere else comes close. Carnival Bahia is not nubile women in feathers high up on floaters à la Carnival Rio. It's YOU out there on the streets doing it 'til you drop.
*"The World's Largest Party" is an appellation that I often hear or see ascribed to our brothers and sisters down in Rio de Janeiro (for example, one entity listing Carnival in Rio as the world's biggest is Forbes.com).
Carnival in Rio encompasses 700 meters of street (Rua Marquês de Sapucaí), with grandstands. Now that's like seven football stadiums in a row, and that's pretty big!
But...
Carnival in Bahia encompasses kilometer after kilometer of streets filled to the brim, practically bursting with people, not to mention block after block lined with camarotes (stands).
With all due respect and more to A Cidade Maravilhosa and its magnificent Carnival history, it's no contest!
