BRAZIL · CONCERTS

The Tricky São Paulo concert takes place on Thursday 26 November 2026 at Cine Joia, a club venue in the Liberdade district. Eventim, the ticket seller, lists doors at 8:30 p.m. and the show at 11 p.m.

For US visitors the concert is a late night with an artist who recorded with Massive Attack on its first two albums. Tickets cost about US$34 to US$126, and you need a Brazilian e-visa before you fly.

What the Tricky São Paulo Concert Is

Tricky comes to Brazil to celebrate 20 years of Só Pedrada Musical, an anniversary named on the Eventim listing. Eventim names no promoter for the night, so its ticket pages are the official point of contact.

Eventim recalls his work on the Massive Attack albums Blue Lines and Protection before his solo career. The tour follows his new album Different When It’s Silent, which Eventim describes as his first solo album in six years.

The Polish singer Marta Złakowska, his musical partner since 2017, is listed as a guest on the bill. Eventim promises deep bass, dense atmospheres and a strong stage presence.

The Tricky São Paulo concert falls on a Thursday, so it suits a trip that already includes the long weekend before it. Friday 20 November is a public holiday in Brazil, as our Black Consciousness Day guide explains.

Eventim has about 1,300 tickets on sale in total, 1,050 on the floor and 250 in the mezzanine, so this is a small-room show. Other acts play the same venue that month, including our Loyle Carner São Paulo concert guide on Tuesday 24 November.

Date, Time and the Late Start

The Tricky São Paulo concert is set for Thursday 26 November 2026. Doors open at 8:30 p.m. on the artist page, and the show starts at 11 p.m.

Brazil is two hours ahead of US Eastern Time from 1 November, so the 11 p.m. start is 9 p.m. ET. Our note on the Brazil time difference with the US explains the change.

A start this late means the Tricky São Paulo concert will end after midnight. Arrange your ride back before you go in.

Tips for US and Foreign Visitors

US fans of the Tricky São Paulo concert need a Brazilian e-visa, which the State Department lists for tourists since 10 April 2025. Our US$80.90 Brazil e-visa guide explains the fee and the online steps.

Your passport must be valid on the date of entry, with one blank page for the entry stamp. Apply for the e-visa early, since approval is needed before you board.

The State Department asks visitors to exercise increased caution in Brazil because of crime. If you are robbed, it tells you not to resist.

The State Department also tells visitors not to accept food or drinks from strangers. In an emergency dial 190 for police, 192 for an ambulance or 193 for the fire service.

The US Consulate General in São Paulo is at Rua Henri Dunant 500, in Chácara Santo Antônio. Its phone number is 011-55-11-3250-5000 when dialled from the US, so save it before you go.

More guides sit on our São Paulo city page, which collects events and practical notes for visitors. Allow time for a meal in Liberdade before doors open, then head to the queue early.

What Is Not Confirmed Yet
