Acadêmicos do Tucuruvi is a traditional samba school in the city of São Paulo, founded on February 1, 1976 by a group of residents from the Tucuruvi neighborhood. Since then, the school has been building a remarkable history in the São Paulo carnival scene. Its symbol is a grasshopper, a tribute to the neighborhood itself, as "Tucuruvi" in Tupi means "green grasshopper". Initially, the school's colors were black and yellow, but they were changed in the early 1980s to blue and white, which are the current colors. Over the years, the school has gone through ups and downs, but has always maintained its tradition and cultural identity.
