Of the total 42 groups, 15 belong to class A, 13 to class B and 14 to class C, writes Angop.
For now, the restrictions established to fight covid-19 do not seem to stop the revelers, who are currently adjusting details to parade in the Nova Marginal without major obstacles.
At an organizational level, the secretary general of the Luanda Provincial Carnival Association (APROCAL), António de Oliveira 'Delon', in statements to Angop, explained that they still do not have authorization from the health authorities, but that they are working to ensure that they communities can take to the streets.
He explained that because of the pandemic, the organization will make some adaptations to the regulation, especially with regard to the assessment requirements: "We will sit down with those responsible for the groups to adjust the regulation. Possibly, we will supply the evaluative item referring to the phalanx of support".
The presence of the public on the waterfront should also be limited, so that the measures relating to gatherings are fulfilled, he indicated.
The children's class (class C) will be the first to parade, with the group Cassules Mundo da Ilha inaugurating the parade. In adults, class B will open with Union Donant, while class A will step in with Union Twabixila.
