Escola da Zona Norte won its 11th title in the Special Group of the Carnival of São Paulo and, finally, let out a cry that had been held back for 9 years
A Mocidade Alegre was the great champion of Sao Paulo Carnival. The school won its 11th title in 2023, after going nine years without winning the trophy, but always hitting beam. It was with that scream stuck in their throats that fans and members filled the school grounds in the North Zone.
“It’s an indescribable emotion. There was a lot of unity, we brought an incredible texture. We managed to carry this cup after 9 years. That scream stuck in our throats,” said the queen of drums, Aline de Oliveira , directly from the school court.

It only took a few minutes after the result of the calculation for Rua Samaritá to be occupied by revelers and fans from the community. The cry “You can have faith! That black people can be whatever they want,” the main protagonist of this year’s samba-enredo, took over the crowd.

Smiles, hugs, tears… a mix of emotions that remained imprinted on the faces of both the members of the upper echelons and the fans who didn’t take to the avenue. It was more than four hours of countless songs and declarations of love for the school, 11 times champion of the Carnival of São Paulo.
The bad moment of the party was a theft, denounced by the organization of Mocidade Alegre on stage. A member of the school requested that a cell phone be returned to its owner. In contact with Terra, the advisory has not yet confirmed whether there has been a return.
Applause for Mestre Sombra’s drums, which won the highest score for yet another carnival. Reverence for the frontal commission, which also achieved a score of 10. President Solange arrived with the champion’s trophy and dedicated the achievement to all who were part of the school. Even so, I was still in disbelief at the feat.
“I’m very happy, I still can’t believe it,” he said in an interview with Terra, who also acknowledged the school’s credit.

Revelry, alcohol, fun, smiles and everything a good Carnival party must have. This was the celebration of Mocidade Alegre, who took 9 years to celebrate again, but who insisted on taking all the delay.
