There is no place on Earth quite like Rio de Janeiro when the clock strikes midnight. As the year draws to a close, the "Marvelous City" prepares for its legendary Réveillon, a spectacle of lights, energy, and celebration.
VATBRZ invites all pilots to the Welcome 2026 Fly-In, a massive event to close out the year with a flourish. Pilots will have the choice of two iconic destinations: navigate the thrilling, scenic approach into Santos Dumont (SBRJ), weaving past Sugarloaf Mountain, or head into the international gateway of Galeão (SBGL).
Expect the virtual skies to be as bright as the fireworks over Copacabana. Join us on December 30th, from 2300z to 0100z, for full ATC coverage and a festive atmosphere to welcome the new year!
