Steel fences were placed on the viaduct and the view of the Esplanade is obstructed to prevent attacks; Lula and Alexandre de Moraes will be at the site
The SSP-DF (Secretariat of Public Security of the Federal District) installed steel barriers on a viaduct, known as Buraco do Tatuí, located in front of the Esplanada dos Ministérios, where the September 7th parade will be held.
Steel fences have been placed on the viaduct and the view of the Esplanade is obstructed. According to sources responsible for the parade’s security, the aim is to avoid possible attacks and accidental falls.
The president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) and STF (Supreme Federal Court) minister Alexandre de Moraes will participate in the parade. There was a reinforcement of security protocols. However, the GSI (Institutional Security Office) did not identify any demonstrations against the PT member.

Despite the risk that the demonstration against Lula could not be identified, the GSI has reinforced security protocols. The parade on September 7 will be slightly longer. To this end, 600 members of the cabinet, 2,000 military personnel and 2,500 military police officers will be deployed.
The parade will start at Alameda das Bandeiras, near the National Congress, and will continue to the last ministry building on the Esplanade. It is a 3.5 km route.
The parade schedule is divided as follows:
- opening with 31 military athletes who participated in the Paris Olympics;
- tribute to Brazil’s presidency of the G20;
- tribute to the civil and military institutions that helped in the reconstruction of Rio Grande do Sul;
- Zé Gotinha parade to celebrate the resumption of vaccination;
- parade of 500 students from the Federal District Government; and
- traditional presentation of the FAB (Brazilian Air Force) Smoke Squadron.
The government and the Armed Forces held a rehearsal for the parade last Saturday (31 August).
