Rio Nightlife Guide for Sunday, November 4, 2018
We have the top three picks for this Sunday, and below there is a list of bars and lounges that are always a good option.
LIVE:
Earthless, Mars Red Sky e Psilocibina @ La Esquina (Lapa) – For the first time in Brazil, the cult American power trio of psychedelic instrumental music, Earthless, will be playing live, in the wildest nightlife district of Rio, Lapa.
This is an extra-special line-up which includes two other great bands: three bands in one night! Directly from France, the trio Mars Red Sky will return to Brazil for four tour dates, but only one of them in Rio de Janeiro on this night of high psychedelic sounds. To close this mighty set, the beloved Psilocibina will be representing the Brazilian instrumental counter-cultural scene.
Doors open at 6PM. Tickets are available from R$100.
