Rio Nightlife Guide for Sunday, June 17, 2018
We have the top three picks for this Sunday, and below there is a list of bars and lounges that are always a good option.
MÚSICA BRASILEIRA:
Samba Que Elas Querem @ Ganjah (Lapa) – Ganjah Lapa are putting on something special for the World Cup (in case you forgot, Brazil kick off their campaign today at 3PM) with music, prizes, surprises and samba!
Admission is R$10 but if you buy their personalized shirt you get in free for all World Cup events! Samba Que Elas Querem are back to play a back catalogue inspired by the most powerful women in this uniquely Brazilian genre. Get ready for lots of singing, drumming and dancing.
The new Ganjah is located at Rua do Rezende, 82, Lapa RJ and has been renovated with a larger space for its customers, which includes the city’s greenest terrace, four floors, expanded stage, three bars and a state-of-the-art sound and cooling system.
The event starts at 2PM but won’t stop until at least 10PM, so this is really one for those who wish to make the most of the weekend, win, lose or draw!

DRINKS:
Relaxa @ JOANA Pizza Bar (Ipanema) – This is one for those looking to escape the football, or ease themselves out of a sleepy Sunday.
JOANA Pizza Bar are putting on their weekly chilled out music and pizza session.
The beats are slowed down by Cau Lopez and his guests, while being accompanied by some of the best pizza in Ipanema.
JOANA Pizza Bar also has a wonderful selection of wines and cocktails, so this is perfect for those wanting something lazy and comforting to do on a rainy Sunday evening but can’t face the yoga mat!
Get there from 6PM-10PM to enjoy the full experience.
