The city caters to all tastes and this is also true for its nightlife, no matter if you are young, old, married, single, straight, gay... Rio de Janeiro nightlife has no end: bars, cafes, theaters, dance clubs, shows and live music, samba, ballroom dance and the list goes on. Just make sure not to leave out the gafieiras (samba parlors). The bohemian neighborhood of Lapa has options for all tribes and pockets. You can enter a fancy club or just hang out on the streets drinking cheap beer and meeting new people.
