Rio Carnival 2013: Samba Queens And Fantasy Floats Descend On Brazilian City (PICTURES)

Rio Carnival 2013: Bacchanalia In Brazil

Samba queens, fantasy floats, steel drums and dental floss bikinis - it can mean only one thing.

Yep, it's carnival time in Rio de Janeiro, signalling four days of wild celebrations in the Brazilian city.

Festivities kicked off on Saturday (with Megan Fox popping in) and last through until Fat Tuesday, after which begins Lent, during which one is meant to abstain from all bodily pleasures.

The festival's official website points out: "Carnival, with all its excesses, celebrated as a profane event, can be considered an act of farewell to the pleasures of the flesh."

So until then, fill those boots and feast those eyes on the bacchanalia unfolding in Brazil.

In this photo taken Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013, men work on a Carnival float at the Grande Rio Samba school in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Yet it's from warehouses like this one that Rio's over-the-top glitz-and-glam Carnival parades emerge, as they will Monday night for the final round of a two-day performance. The internationally renowned competition between 12 elite samba groups dazzles more than a billion spectators in person and on TV for two days, but it takes nearly a year and hundreds of workers, many of them volunteers, to pull each one together.
