Adriane Galisteu is confirmed for Fairmont Rio’s 2026 Masquerade Ball, featuring a Ludmilla show and the “Verão Maravilha” theme in Copacabana.
The Fairmont Rio Masquerade Ball strengthens its role in the Carnaval calendar by confirming Adriane Galisteu for the 2026 edition. The TV host joins a list of high-profile guests. In this way, the hotel sets the stage for another signature night in Copacabana.
Galisteu said she is excited about her debut at the Fairmont ball. In addition, she noted she was pleased to hear the event is returning to the city’s lineup. Organizers frame the evening as a mix of fantasy, music, and sophistication.
“Verão Maravilha” concept and inspiration
The “Verão Maravilha” concept blends Rio’s Carnaval energy with a bold, era-defining aesthetic. Its main reference is Studio 54, the New York nightlife icon launched in 1977. As a result, the theme nods to fashion, music, art, and freedom of expression.
This atmosphere guides the 2026 edition and proposes a hot, vibrant, and sophisticated Carnaval. Shine becomes a central visual language. Meanwhile, exaggeration appears as part of the event’s style.
Performance, muse, and special guest drums
The night will feature a Ludmilla concert described as exclusive. The show is set to move across pop, funk, pagode, and samba. Therefore, the stage aligns with the party’s multi-genre spirit.
Brunna Gonçalves will serve as the ball’s muse and a key presence in the celebration. She is Ludmilla’s wife and embodies the event’s vibrant energy. In addition, dance and performance are positioned as highlights.
Samba also takes the spotlight with a special appearance by Grande Rio’s drum section. In this way, the pulse of the Marquês de Sapucaí enters the hotel. Finally, the moment reinforces the ball’s direct connection to Rio’s Carnaval essence.
