Thursday, November 15th, 2012 Nightlife Guide
Thursday’s Rio Nightlife Pick – Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum! La Folie casts off on Thursday for a very special event featuring some of Rio’s top notch DJ talent. Taking place on the high seas, La Folie has enlisted a handful of swashbuckling beat-slingers to set the mood. One of the few and perhaps only boat parties in Rio, La Folie has made this experience one to remember. There are limited tickets, which are presented in the form of a message in a bottle.
Soaking up the beauty of this city from the sea, the voyage will go from 1PM-10PM on this special holiday. DJs are local and out of town guests, featuring Dani Souto, Bernardo Campos, Gabriel Boni, Rockerr and Mike Frugaletti & Vivi Seixas.
