UESP

The União das Escolas de Samba de São Paulo – Union of the Samba Schools of São Paulo – or UESP is an entity that organizes the parades of the Carnaval of São Paulo, SP, Brazil.

It was created in 1973 when the samba schools obtained their recognition, because in that epoch the entity helped councils to regularize their statutes, professionalizing the parades.

Nowadays the entity counts on 68 other carnivalesque entities, among samba schools, schools of inferior divisions, and carnivalesque blocos.
