Unidos da Tijuca, Rio’s third oldest Samba school, were crowned champions in 2010 and runners up in Carnival 2011. This year they are looking for victory when they perform on February 20th at 01:20 AM with their new Enredo (Theme), “O Dia em Que Toda a Realeza Desembarcou na Avenida para Coroar o Rei Luiz do Sertão” meaning “The day royalty landed on the avenue to have king Louis Crowned”.
The parade will pay tribute to Brazilian singer and Composer Louis Gonzaga who died in 1989, and shall be delivered at a time which marks the artist’s centenary year, for which the school will celebrate the renowned hits “Asa Branca” and “Xote das Meninas”
