PARTY:
Latin Party @ Pub Kriok (Lapa) – Every Wednesday night, if you want a party that’s going to give you bang for your buck, then you can’t go wrong with the Latin Party at Pub Kriok.
To whet your whistle, there’s open beer and caipirinha until midnight, with everyone being treated like a VIP until the clock strikes twelve. Three DJs will be pumping out the Latin hits including plenty of reggaeton, hip-hop, and carioca funk, so there’s no excuse not to have a great time on the dancefloor this Wednesday.
Tickets are between R$0-R$20, and the party starts at 11 PM.
