Nightlife in Sao Paulo

One thing that sets Sao Paulo apart from the rest of Brazil is that it is fairly accommodating with the gay nightlife scene. There is even a Gay Parade here, which is one of the main highlights of the year. Over 3 million people take part and it is the largest Gay Pride parade in the world. With that said, there are an abundance of Gay bars here. There are also plenty of straight bars and nightclubs. The nightlife here is electrifying. Alcohol is fairly cheap, which is good news to many college students looking to save a few dollars. There is always something going on or crazy to see and do. Cachaça (Brazilian rum), or a caipirinha (a signature drink made from Cachaça) are taken in shot glasses. Chopp is a popular beer and will only cost you $2 – $5. From the traditional salsa and meringue music to rock and hip hop, Sao Paulo has it all. You can mix it up or stick with just one club. Or maybe you want to spend a few nights trying out the different places around the city. Just be conscious because the clubs can get a bit expensive and most have entry fees. If you’re just looking to have fun without the extra expense, that’s possible too–there are so many options for nightlife that you can always find something you want to do. The bars and pubs are always bustling and some have special events and features, so keep you eye out for them.
