Grace on the UK of Freedom
Grace United Kingdom of Liberty developed a number of works to improve the carnival. Throughout the year, and not only during the Carnival period, it develops artistic and cultural activities within the court, such as samba troupes, rehearsals for folklore groups, music and dance workshops, among others. Much work is also done by the Instituto Reino do Amanhã, which works with children and adolescents in various fields. As a result, today, it is the only samba school in Manaus that brings an audience of more than five thousand people to all street rehearsals and is one of the few schools to fill the stands on the night of the parade.
In its 39 years of existence, the United Kingdom of Liberty has disputed 31 titles, becoming 13-time champions of the special group of Manaus. Its final title was in 2019 with the anthology “Afro-Brazilian Drums, Faith and Customs – A Bencao Me Zulmira”.
Over the past 15 years, it has managed to win 15 trophies, making it the only samba school in the country to achieve this feat. There were 7 champion titles (2011, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019), 6 runners-up (2006, 2007, 2009, 2010 and 2015, 2020), and 2 third places (2008 and 2013).
