Bunker
Featuring big parties throughout the week, Bunker is one of Copacabana’s big draws. Its three rooms have different music and you’ll find an eclectic mix of Cariocas (residents of Rio) and tourists against the backdrop of hip-hop, acid jazz, rock, trance and deep house – among other selections. Weekends get crowded – come early and stake out a spot before the masses converge (around 1am).

Cine Lapa
In the heart of Lapa, this newly revamped space serves up a steady diet of rock, with punk, psychedelic, Brit pop and straight-up classic rock; live bands sometimes take the stage. The two-floor space also has a small cinema (seating 40), and plans for club events and art events throughout the year.
