Suggested route
Start at Tokyo (Centro) for free happy-hour 17:00–19:00 → hop to Pinheiros for Mike Love at 19:00 (City Lights) → walk or short ride to Casa Natura for Marcos Almeida at 21:00 → head to Paulista for Leo Jaime’s late set at 22:30 (Blue Note) → finish after-hours at D-EDGE’s Moving party from 23:59 (Barra Funda) — tickets: BlueTicket.
Getting around & quick tips
- Metrô works well on this route: República (Tokyo) → Via Yellow Line 4 to Pinheiros (City Lights/Casa Natura) → Green Line 2 (Consolação) for Blue Note → Red Line 3 (Barra Funda) for D-EDGE. After midnight, use ride-hailing.
- Arrive 30–45 minutes early for seated shows (Blue Note/Candlelight). Standing shows (Carioca Club/City Lights) often scan tickets quickly but lines form at door time.
- Bring a photo ID; many venues check age and name on ticket. Smart-casual is fine; clubs may restrict football shirts or cameras.
- Hydrate and plan ATM/PIX; some bars are card-only. Keep belongings zipped when moving between venues.
