Carnival 2027: Changes in samba school muses

Several changes are occurring within the samba school community ahead of the 2027 Carnival. Débora Bana has been announced as the new muse for Unidos da Ponte. A samba dancer with 11 years of experience, Bana will lead a group of 80 international dancers during the parade.

In contrast, actress Carol Nakamura has announced her departure from the role of muse at Salgueiro. Nakamura stated that the decision was difficult but necessary to allow her to focus on her acting career, including new training courses and upcoming television and film projects.
