Friday’s Rio Nightlife Pick – Tonight, Palaphita Gávea will be celebrating all sorts of love with the union of Friday and Palaphita together!
This episode of the P.S. EU TE AMO (P.S. I LOVE YOU) will have DJ Rafa M on the decks, with musical influences that go through Brazilian music, taking remixes of great classics, and strolls through pop, black and disco, mixes myths from rock to indie, reaching modern nu disco and breakbeat.
Palaphita is a chic and stylish venue in Gávea that overlooks the Jockey Club race track. The doors open at 6PM and close at 1AM – but the party doesn’t end until the sun comes up. Dress to impress here, as the crowd is beautiful and there are no Havaianas allowed.
