Challenge 2023
After the vaccines arrived and the pandemic cooled down, 2023 was the first Carnival in which people returned to the streets to party safely. PR’s challenges were to work on the resumption of in-person events, reinforcing CarnaUOL SP’s positioning as the biggest project of content, media and events of Carnival in Brazil.
