One of the most popular party capitals in the world, Rio de Janeiro is a city that comes alive at night. Towards the end of the year, Brazil gets ready to party the nights away and ring in the new year, and there are plenty of fun activities for you to enjoy. Rio is home to Copacabana beach and Christ the Redeemer among other attractions. Guests are sure to have a memorable time, with beach parties the norm during the month of December. Head over to the beaches and relax with a nice bottle of local beer and enjoy a spot of football or volleyball. Rio is a great outdoor party location, so ensure that you're ready to sweat it out before getting dressed down for the night.
You can also enjoy some delicious local fare being dished out by the vendors and continue dancing the night away. Eating is also considered a very important activity, so be careful of what you eat as the first meal reflects the luck you receive for the year ahead.
Eating lentils is a good omen but having crab and turkey are considered unlucky according to the local tradition. The locals also encourage having some champagne for good luck and to give you the energy to party the whole night and the year ahead.
The Urca mountains are another fabulous place to enjoy the festivities. Situated at the height of 400 meters above sea level, tickets for this are generally sold out.
You will be treated to a breathtaking panoramic view of the city and see the fireworks both on Niteroi and Botafogo Beach.
The Sugarloaf mountain, which has restricted access gives you a view of the Copacabana beach festivities also, lending an unforgettable experience to your New Year.
