One early-morning bloco, Friends of the Jaguar, meets on a beach facing Sugarloaf Mountain. Thousands attended, many wearing jaguar and leopard-print outfits. A band of saxophones, trombones, and drums leads the group, supported by a truck carrying speakers. Choreographed dancers known as the “jaguarettes” perform with feline-themed makeup and movements. Rio City Hall expects about 6 million revelers to participate in the raucous street parties, where groups made up of musicians, percussionists, and stilt artists draw thousands of partygoers, many scantily dressed and covered in glitter.
