Saturday’s Rio Nightlife Pick – ‘Rattle’ takes off yet again tonight at the always chic and posh nightclub, lounge and restaurant Zero Zero (00) in Gávea. After a successful first edition, the new Saturday night program brings together the slamming sounds of hip hop, electro, rock and trap, with a crowd every bit as eclectic.
Zero Zero (00) is a venue where you can arrive early and eat from the broad dinner menu soundtracked by great sounds provided by live DJs.
