Rio Nightlife Guide for Wednesday, May 29, 2019

We have the top three picks for this Wednesday, and below there is a list of bars and lounges that are always a good option.
LIVE:
Lô Borges @ Theatro NET Rio (Copacabana) – Come see Brazilian music legend Lô Borges launch his latest album “Rio Da Lua” (Deck), his fifth album of the twenty-first century, tonight at Theatro Net Rio in Copacabana.
You’ll be hearing for the first time songs from an album composed in partnership with Nelson Angelo, who has known Borges since the days of Clube da Esquina; however, this is their first collaboration in forty years.
Tickets are available from R$45 and the night starts at 9 PM.

PARTY:
La Fiesta! @ New Mariuzinn (Copacabana) – For a bit of midweek excitement, head to La Fiesta!, the party that is in love with Latin culture.
You’ll have your pick of songs to dance to, from salsa and reggaeton to cumbia, and bachata courtesy of DJ Cauê Campean. And in true latin style there are double measures all night long and free beer and caipirinhas from 10 PM until midnight (for two hours!).
Tickets are between R$40 – R$50 and the night starts at 10 PM.
