Brazilians go to the polls October 26th to decide the outcome of what’s been the nation’s most surprising election since its return to democracy nearly 30 years ago. The election will determine who will be the next leader of Brazil, Latin America's biggest nation and the country that will host the 2016 Olympics.

President Dilma Rousseff is fighting for her political life, finding herself in a deadlocked race with challenger Aecio Neves. With polls showing the pair even, the final days of the campaign have turned into bare-knuckle sparring over key issues and each other’s character, with accusations of corruption being slung by each.

Many voters remain undecided and will likely only make up their minds when they step into the polling booth, making this photo-finish race unpredictable and exciting.

Brazil's NewSource Globo in cooperation with the Associated Press will provide comperhensive broadcast facilities at the following locations:

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE @ TV GLOBO'S PROJAC STUDIOS (24 October)

Eurovision News Events

São Paulo, Brazil, 26-27 October 2014

The President of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, is locked in a dead heat with challenger Aecio Neves less than a week before the run-off election on Sunday October 26th.

The heated campaign has been marked by allegations of corruption and economic mismanagement as the polls show neither candidate able to open a decisive lead.

The Brazilian stock exchange, which favours the more pro-business Neves, has suffered major turbulence each time a poll is issued showing minor swings between the two candidates.


Eurovision Americas will provide live stand-up positions in São Paulo, the city in which both campaigns have their headquarters, and to which both candidates are expected to travel after the vote.

Liveshots will also be available from Eurovision's One Stop Shopping (OSS) partner in Rio de Janeiro at usual rates.

Eurovision Special Events will offer the following facilities onsite:

Standup position for Live programme inserts
Playout with customer's own camera or deck
Connectivity to the Eurovision Global Network
