The Sambodrome consists of several independent concrete structures along both sides of Av. Marques de Sapucai. The pavement of the street itself is painted white a few days before Carnival, and turned samba runway (or passarela). It ends at the Apotheosis Square, crowned by a large M in concrete. During the school year, parts of this structure are used as classrooms by public schools. The Square is often stage for shows, and major bands have already performed here. When Carnival magic takes over, the Sambodrome is the setting to the greatest show on earth.
