The Night in Context
Tonight’s confirmed list is short and cheap. Every ticket price we could verify starts at R$40 (about US$7), so a night at the theatre or a small-club gig is easy on a traveller’s budget.
Copacabana carries the early evening. The three Sesc plays start at 5 p.m., 6 p.m. and 7 p.m., and “Boca de Ouro” and “A solidão do feio” overlap by 30 minutes, so you can see one or the other.
Botafogo carries the later hours, with Audio Rebel opening its doors at 7 p.m.
What We Could Not Confirm
The biggest concert in town tonight may be the singer João Gomes with the musicians Jota.pê and Mestrinho, on their “Dominguinho” tour, at the Jardim da Cidade das Artes, a venue in Barra da Tijuca. Songkick, a concert listing site, shows doors at 3 p.m. and tickets on sale through Ingresse, a ticket platform, but no price and no start time, so we leave it out of the list.
Audio Rebel’s agenda also lists “Rebel de Portas Abertas” (“Rebel Open Doors”) at 4 p.m., without a price.
Later This Week
- —Sunday 15 November Audio Rebel lists “Die Hard Headbangers – I Edição” (“first edition”) at 5 p.m. for R$40 (about US$7) in advance, per its agenda.
Practical Notes
- —Transport Use a ride app such as Uber or 99, a Brazilian ride app, or the Metro, Rio’s underground. Sesc Copacabana and Audio Rebel are in different neighborhoods, so allow time between them.
- —Tickets Buy through the venue or the platform it names: the Audio Rebel event page, or the Sesc box office and Ingresso.com, a ticket platform. Avoid street sellers outside any venue.
- —Weather Open-Meteo forecasts 23.4°C (74°F) at 6 p.m. and 22.8°C (73°F) at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., with little chance of rain.
