'One huge party': Brazilian carnival in full swing in Rio

The world’s biggest party is back as Carnival celebrations return to Brazil with glittery, outrageous costumes, samba rhythms ringing out until dawn and hundreds of raucous roaming parties flooding the streets. "It does really feel as though the whole of the city has become one huge party for this two and a half day holiday", FRANCE 24's Jan Onoszko said, adding that Brazil's annual carnival has become longer, with parades continuing until March.
